It is up to you
where you
go when you die
“And just as it is appointed for
man to die once, and after that comes judgment,” Hebrews 9:27 (ESV)
First the fact – one in one will die - some soon, some later – we all hope we will live life to the fullest
The Bible is absolutely clear that there are only two possible places where you go when you die - heaven or hell.
The Bible also makes it clear that you can determine where you go when you die.
How?
- First, the problem. We have all sinned (Romans 3:23).
We have all done things that are wrong, evil, or immoral (Ecclesiastes 7:20).
Our sin separates us from God, and, if left unresolved, our sin will result in our being eternally separated from God (Matthew 25:46; Romans 6:23a).
This eternal separation from God is hell - described in the Bible as an eternal lake of fire (Revelation 20:14-15).
- Now, the solution.
God became a human being in the person of Jesus Christ (John 1:1, 14,; 8:58; 10:30).
Jesus lived a sinless life (1 Peter 3:22; 1 John 3:5).
We have all done things that are wrong, evil, or immoral (Ecclesiastes 7:20).
He became the sacrificial lamb and willingly offered His life at the cross on our behalf (1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Peter 1”18-19).
His death paid the penalty for our sins (2 Corinthians 5:21).
God now offers us salvation and forgiveness as a gift because of Jesus’ finished work at the cross (Romans 6:23b).
We must receive this gift by faith (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8-9).
All our works have nothing to do with this gift.
“Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31).
Trust in Jesus alone as your Savior. You cannot add anything more to His completed work at the cross.
Rely on His finished sacrifice at the cross alone as the payment for your sins.
According to the Bible, God’s own Word, by receiving Jesus into your life, you have eternal life.
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. John 3:36 English Standard Version (ESV)
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes has eternal life. John 6:47 English Standard Version (ESV)
Where do you go when you die?
It is up to you. God offers you the choice. God invites you to come to Him. It is your call.
If you feel God is drawing you to faith in Jesus Christ come to the Savior.
God is lifting the veil and removing your spiritual blindness (2 Corinthians 4:4).
Look to Jesus Christ alone. There is no other Savior.
You are experiencing a spark of life in what has always been dead (Ephesians 2:1).
Come to life, even eternal life through Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God who died for you.
Where do you go when you die?
Heaven or hell.
Through Jesus Christ, hell is avoidable.
Receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, and heaven will be your eternal destination.
Make any other decision, and eternal separation from God in hell will be the result (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).
Talk to the God of the universe and let Him work in your behalf
He says, “I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you" (Psalm 32:8).
Ask God to show you what to do. Pray the following prayer:
“Heavenly Father,
I admit that I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life and begin a new life with You.
Please forgive me. I now receive your Son, Jesus Christ as my Savior, my Master and my Lord. I believe and confess that Jesus Christ died for my sins, was buried, and rose from the dead.
I want to receive all that Jesus Christ has provided for me as my Savior. Your Word says, ‘Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved’ (Romans 10:13).
I believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes unto the Father, but by Him.
Lord Jesus, I pray and ask You, to come into my heart and be Lord of my life. I thank You that you have given me eternal life, and according to Your Word, I am born again.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit Who is in me now. I surrender my life to You.
Use me for Your glory.
In Jesus Name. Amen.”

We want to see Jesus.
To reach out and touch Him
And say that we love Him
Open our ears, Lord
