Soul, what if it's true?
What
if hell is real after all?
What
if there's a place of eternal torment
that
actually burns, inflicting both body and soul?!
What
if it's true?
What
if you descend into the bottomless pit,
lost
in total darkness?
What
if the only arms you ever feel
are
the vengeful arms of flaming fire lashing out at you,
having
mocked and blasphemed God?
What
if it's true?
What
if hell is real after all?
What
if in this place you realize that saying "yes" to your friends,
was
saying "no" to God?
In
hell, you won't be remembering the "good old days,"
the
times playing in the pit of sin.
Your
every thought will be on how you rejected God's love;
when
He desperately tried to reach you.
What
if in this place, you remember all the times
God
tried to block you from your own destruction,
but
you kept walking, walking away from God.
You'll
remember how you drank to your own foolishness,
laughing
and mocking the things of God.
Now
you curse yourself, and them, because of what has happened to you!
Soul,
what if it's true?
What
if in this place you realize that your memory is sharper,
clearer
than it has ever been?
What
if you remember every shameful word you spoke,
every
sinful act as it is played back in your memory over and over again?
You
will be reminded of how you couldn't be bothered with Jesus,
how
you had no time for Him.
Now
you have time! You'll have all eternity to remember.
Now,
He doesn't have time for you.
What
will you say for yourself at the Judgement
when
the Lord takes His place on the throne
to
judge every individual that has ever lived?
What
if you believed the words you wanted to hear,
rather
than listen to the voice of God?
The
truth has been so diluted,
that
many have been deceived and will be damned forever.
If
I'm wrong... I lose nothing,
if
you're wrong you'll lose everything!
***
It's
a sobering thought, isn't it?
Death
often comes as a thief in the night,
you
may not know when the hour will come.
Many
of you tonight have not yet surrendered your life to Christ.
You
are uncertain of where you will spend eternity
if
your soul was required of you.
Yet,
if you don't believe in the Lord, you're going to hell.
There
is no pleasant way to say it.
The Scripture says,
"For all have sinned, and come
short of the glory of God."
~ Romans 3:23
"That
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and
shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou
shalt be saved."
~ Romans 10:9
Don't
fall asleep without Jesus
until
you are assured of a place in heaven.
Tonight,
if you would like to receive the gift of eternal life
first
you must believe in the Lord.
You
have to ask for your sins to be forgiven
and
put your trust in the Lord.
There's
only one way to heaven and that's through the Lord Jesus.
That's
God's wonderful plan of salvation.
You
can begin a personal relationship with Him
by
praying from your heart a prayer such as the following:
"O
God, I am a sinner.
I'm
sorry for my sins.
I
want to turn from my sins.
I
accept You as my Savior,
I
confess You as my Lord.
From
now on I want to follow You.
In
Jesus' name, Amen."
If
you have received the Lord Jesus as your personal Savior
after
reading this invitation, please let us know.
We
would love to hear from you. Your first name is sufficient.
We'll
leave the light on for you...
