How many times have you looked into a casket, seem the face of the deceased. and listened to the following statements: He/She sure has suffered, but he/she is beter off now,or He/She is at peace, never to suffer anymore.? My FRIEND, IF the deceased had accepted Christ as Lord ans SAviour and had been born again AND in RIGHT relationship with his, these are true statements. The Apostle Paul said this of Christians: Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:(For we walk by faith not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. [2Corinthians 5:6-8] However, if the deceased died in a LOST spiritual condition, his/her troubles have just begun. The instant his soul leaves his body, it goes DIRECTLY to hell to burn for ever and ever. The wicked shall be turned into hell and all the nations that forget God.[Psalm 9:17] The KJV Bible states that hell is a place Where their worm dieth no, and the fire is unquenched.[Mark 9:44] Listen to the voice of the rich man crying out from hell:And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abrahams bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes being i torment, send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.[Luke16:22-24] Perhaps someone looked at the face of this rich man as he was prepared for burial and said that he was at peace now, never to suffer anymore. How wrong their statement would have been! As they were saying beautiful words over his body, his soul was screaming from the pits of hell. Suffering does not end at death for a lost person. After ten million years of eternity, they will STILL be burning. If you are spiritually lost and die in that condition, then you too will be doomed to a burning hell. You might wonder what you must do to escape this torment in hell. The answer is the same on that Jesus gave to Nicodemus. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. [John 3:3] Just as you were born physically, you MUST be born spiritually to reach to protals of heaven. Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. [John 14:6] You are not promised another day on this earth. Tomorrow might be too late. Now is the time to do something about your lost condition.For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, an in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold NOW is the accepted time, NOW is the DAY of SALVATION...[2 Corinthians 6:2] Right now while there is still life in your body, will your repent of your sins and call upon Jesus Christ to save your soul?But as many received Him to them that believeth on His Name: [John 1:12] The decision is yours. Where will your soul be when they are preaching your funeral? Your life might end before another hour passes and your soul will be somewhere for eternity. Will you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and be confident of everlasting life in heaven? If you havent accepted Jesus PLEASE do.... BE NOT DECEIVED!!!! If you have ANY questions or need prayer please inbox me or comment. I Love you!!
