Heaven or hell?


We are too disposed to forget that each action of our life shall at some moment be performed for the last time.

It often seems as if we shall continue forever to fulfill certain routines of duties or enjoyments; but this shall never be. At length we are going to breathe our last, and then face God.

How will it go for you, when your time comes, dear reader?

Will you be numbered among those who, having repented of their sins and put their trust on the Savior, shall be given a grand entrance into heaven? or among those who, having failed to receive God's offer of salvation, shall suffer the torments of hell for all eternity?

Think about it.

It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Psalms 110:1 NKJV The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ——————— Part of this prophecy has already been fulfilled. Christ is now sitting at the right hand of God; but He has not yet come to put His enemies under His feet. They who once rejected Him, O with what dismay shall they behold the Son of God when He appears in His glory! “See, He is coming in the clouds and every eye shall see Him, even those who pierced Him, and his coming will mean bitter sorrow to every tribe upon the earth. So let it be!” ( Revelation 1:7 ) Bitter sorrow to everyone who rejected Him! It was not only the Jews who said, “We do not want this man to reign over us;” it was not only the Romans who pierced Him with a spear; there are many in Christian lands who have crucified Him all over again and have trampled Him underfoot. ( Hebrews 6:6 ; 10:29 ) All who do not love Him are His enemies, and shall be put under His feet. It is a dreadful thing to fall into th...

For what is man?

May the Lord give us grace not to be afraid of mere humans, who whither like the grass and disappear; but to fear Him who stretched out the skies and laid the foundations of the earth, even Him who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead, and will raise us also, if we believe in Him. For what is man, and what his smile? The terror of his anger, what? Like grass he flourishes a while, But soon his place shall know him not. Thro’ fear of such an one shall I The Lord of Heav’n and earth deny?

The importance of investigating diligently

Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Will the Christ come out of Galilee? Has the Scripture not said that the Christ comes from the seed of David, out of the town of Bethlehem where David was?” ( John 7:41-42 ) ——————— It was prophesied in the Scriptures that the Christ should be born in Bethlehem, of the royal line of David. These Jews, therefore, thought that Jesus could not be the Christ, thinking that He was born in Galilee (He was only brought up there) and they did not know that He was of David's family. But had they investigated diligently, they would have found that the reports about Him were false, and that He really had been born in Bethlehem, and was a descendant of David. They were much to blame for such remissness. Oh, how many are now in error, because of their own negligence! They credulously believe the rumors they hear against Christ's ministers; they readily believe the objections that unbelievers make against the Bible; and they never inquire in...
