What happens when you die?

This question has indeed troubled many people for many many many years... What actually happens to us when we die? Will we just stop living? Will our body just decay and stop existing? Is there a heaven for everyone? Is there really a hell for those very evil and wicked people? Is there justice of a both heaven and hell? Or would it be just a total darkness...? Or a a light at the end of the tunnel?

There was this fad as well from last year:

Quoting from Mail Online says:-

"People in China are getting behind the craze of holding funerals for themselves and being placed in a coffin. Participants are told to climb inside wooden coffins to feel what it is truly like to experience death. The experience is getting popular in the country with many companies including funeral parlours around the country offering the chance to get inside a coffin. One such event, called 'Experiencing Death', was held by a funeral home in east China's Tianjin city last Friday, reported People's Daily Online." - Mail Online

It captures the imagination of people who even doesn't have an interest to know anything about religion or God, it get's stuck in their head when they're older or even when in an age where everything seems to be stagnant and without direction and monotonous life... Intrusive thoughts about the afterlife after death can challenge one's thinking and beliefs that when they are a 

FREETHINKER @ 'I Don't Care' or an ATHEIST

Hi, seems like I have got your attention now since you are continuing to read my blog post today. So, my name is Albrecht... and I am an Ex-believer of the idea of reincarnation and also an Ex-believer of the teachings of Buddha when all he thought about was some crazy stuff not even a monk could follow 100%... Images of him were made hundreds of years after he died and ceased to exists and the teachings of Buddhism got so mixed up with Chinese folklore, Taoism and some other weird superstition... I am happy I got away with all the past madness.

Today I stand before all of you saying I once believe all people would go to heaven, but considering a man who has once did the most wicked thing in life like murdering his own wife or kids, or like Hitler starting WWII and eventually wiping out millions of innocent people... I don't think heaven would cater for such people.

"... all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God ."

The Book of Romans, Chapter 3 verse 23

The Apostle Paul

You see, the problem with the world today is filled with evil, wickedness, unfairness, justice that has been smudged with dirt and such dirty... disgusting acts of horrible crimes has been conducted by man or women who just has evil in their hearts. Yes, there are good people around too that gives colors to this world and creates life and good atmospheres in world that we lived in.

What would happen to the evil people? the rapist? Child abusers? Murderers? Thieves? would there be a punishment for them after this life?  In hell?

YES

And in the same way, for all of those who has sin and continuing in their sins... Those who has not known God or even found the way to connect to God... Because ultimately, each and everyone of us has done something wrong in life and has lived in a way where we did not acknowledge God or His existence in our lives. One way or another we have had sinned. and sin in God's Eye is dirty, wicked and evil and can not enter into heaven.

“There is no one righteous, not even one;

there is no one who understands;

there is no one who seeks God.

All have turned away,

they have together become worthless;

there is no one who does good,

not even one.”

“Their throats are open graves;

their tongues practice deceit.”

“The poison of vipers is on their lips.”

“Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”

“Their feet are swift to shed blood;

ruin and misery mark their ways,

and the way of peace they do not know.”

“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

- The Apostle Paul

God is Almighty, the creator of the universe and He is Perfect and Holy and without blame... also, He is Awesome and Great and gives life to a newborn and to every living creature on this planet. To think for a second that anyone imperfect, a liar, a drunkard a murderer, prideful, without compassion, heartless, animal maiming person, fornicator, adulterer or even a thief... would be able enter into the courts of Heaven is unreasonable. 

Since the fall of Adam and Eve in the history of mankind, SIN has entered into the world and has since separated mankind from God. it is our sin, that dirty, evil and disgusting sin of our in us separates us from knowing God and having a relationship with Him.

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked;

for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption,

but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

The Book of Galatians

Chapter 6

Verses 7 & 8

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

The First Letter to the Corinthians

Paul, The Apostle

Chapter 6

verses 9 & 10

When it is said that such people would not inherit the Kingdom of God, it speaks loudly of a group of people who would not enter heaven. And because God is Holy, Righteous, Just and Marvelous... He is not a Judge Who would just be like a good ol' grandpa and say, "I'll let this sin pass me by and accept it into heaven." Instead, like a righteous Judge, Sin must be punished and the Justice of God must be appeased.

Because,

God is a just judge,

And God is angry with the wicked every day.

If he does not turn back,

He will sharpen His sword;

He bends His bow and makes it ready.

The Book of Psalms
Chapter 7
Verses 11 & 12

Far be it from You to do such a thing as this, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”

The Book of Genesis

The Book of Beginnings

Moses

And since God is a righteous Judge and our wicked, vile and disgusting dirty sin will send us straight to hell... It would be even a scary thought that one would have to spend an eternity over eternity in hell because he or she has sinned not against a mere man, but an everlasting, eternal Holy God.

The Great White Throne Judgment

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

The Book of Revelation

John, The Apostle

Chapter 20

Verses 11 ~ 15

At the end of the day, there will be eternal torment in hell...

"... God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;"

2nd Letter of Peter,

Peter, the Apostle

Chapter 2

Verse 4

Sin will have its consequences not only in this world but also in the afterlife... after we die... when our soul has left our body...

So, what is our hope then? Since even the most nicest person on earth has had sinned once in his or her lifetime... and will be condemned to hell if not saved... What is the hope for them?? What is the hope for us??

You see dear reader, it is also known that God is Love... Out of Love He blesses the earth and provides us with the colors of His creation... The laughter, the joyous emotions, the smiles and the happy feelings we get when we are with loved ones are His designs and creations.

The Lord is not slack

concerning His promise,

as some count slackness,

but is longsuffering toward us,

not willing that any should perish

but that all should come to repentance.

2nd Letter of Peter,

Peter, the Apostle

Chapter 3, Verse 9

“ … ‘As I live,’ says the Lord God,

‘I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked,

but that the wicked turn from his way and live.

Turn, turn from your evil ways!

For why should you die, … ?”

The Book of Ezekiel

Chapter 33, Verse 11

And this is the Hope, that God does not wants us to perish in hell and die there left to rot for eternity and eternity and eternity... But He desires that we repent of our wrongdoings, repent from our sinful ways and turn away from it...

Now, if you turn away from your sin,

Whom do you turn to?

God has prepared a way for salvation, that is for you to escape the Judgement and God's Wrath against sin and all that has rebelled against Him... escaping hell and receiving His redemption...

"... for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus."

 The Book of Romans

The Apostle Paul

Chapter 3, Verses 23 ~26

Since there is a price that needs to be paid for our sins, Jesus has died on the cross to pay the wages of our sin. Jesus being God's Only Begotten Son has became a man and lived a perfect, blameless and holy life on earth being tempted with the same temptations of evil as of today... Yet lived without sin and was proven blameless unto death. He was crucified and died a sinner's death; a death penalty worthy of the worst criminals at that current time during the Roman Empires. He was accused of blasphemy declaring His Deity and calling God is Father making Him equal with God, and also at one point revealing He Himself is God.

If He was a mere crazy man, he would have died and stayed dead in his very grave...

BUT

Jesus; "who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification."

The Apostle Paul

Jesus Christ, The Lord Jesus Christ was raised up from the dead and He was resurrected back to life after dying on the cross and was buried... The people at those times went mad and began to declare what has happened and share this wonderful news. Because...

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

 The Book of John

by The Apostle John

Chapter 3: vs. 16

I call unto you dear reader, whoever who would stumble unto this blog post of mine... Life after death is real and will continue for eternity upon eternity and upon eternity. You don't need to spend your eternity after death in hell...

But repent of your sins and put your Faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, receiving Him as your Lord and Savior... submitting your whole life under His Lordship and Sovereignty... Because He is coming back again for those who has placed their trust, faith and belief in Him to save them from hell entering into an eternal relationship with Him, The King of Kings and The Lord of Lords.

The Lord Jesus Christ wants to save you and set you free from the bondage of sin, the consequences of sin and ultimately from an eternal separation from God in hell. He wants to redeem you and purchase you unto Himself by His Blood. 

Do you have an empty heart?

The great big emptiness in your heart can only be filled with The Lord Jesus Christ. You try to make sense of life without God in the equation and you still can't understand the meaning of your existence. Sometimes when you're alone and you can't stand the emotions rushing in and the thoughts that comes to your mind... So you travel the world and you satisfy all your hearts desire and left confused and lost as you still couldn't understand what is that emptiness in your heart...

You think you have depression... You think you're just lonely... You believe you need to surround yourself with more friends... Maybe another sip of wine... Maybe another round of getting wasted with alcohol... Or finding a new high with new drugs...

At the end of the night when you're alone, you seem lost... You hate the torment in your mind and feel hopeless despite all the things you have in your fingertips... You hate life and become bored of the things you once enjoyed.

A life without God or a life resisting God Himself is a life of rebellion and of sin. Now Sin is the reason why we do not have a relationship with God... and Sin will eventually becomes Death to us... dragging us to an eternal separation with God Himself not only in this world... but the afterlife. So what is the Hope?

The Hope is this; For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God sent His Son, Jesus to rescue us from Sin and the consequence that sin brings to our lives now and even the afterlife... He died on the cross having no fault nor sin... being innocent, holy and blameless yet died a sinners death... the worst death possible on a roman cross for us all. His shedding of Blood was to redeem mankind that if we believe He is Lord, He is the Son of God and we stop trying to save ourselves but throw ourselves to Him... surrendering our lives to Him, repenting and asking for forgiveness for the way we have been living in sin and for all our wrong doings... He will forgive us our sins and receive us as His own people.

Then He will empower us to live a life for God and for Him... a life in relationship with The One Who created us. And sin has no hold unto us as we are set free from the vain pleasures that separates us from God in the 1st place. Everything will be new and made holy. As you say, "God, how would you want me to live my life before you?" Surely, He is no small Creator to guide and direct you in this fallen world...

Jesus died... was buried and He rose up from the dead and ascended into heaven. Promising to come back again... Proving Who He said He was during his lifetime on earth... To be The Son of God, equal with God and calling God His Father.

As a Christian, that is my hope. The Lord Jesus Christ who fills all the empty gaps in my heart since the day I received Him in my life to this very day... continuously.

5 ways Jesus has changed my life

A simple life made more meaningful with Jesus in it

1. Having the assurance that I'm in for a better future beyond the grave

Understanding the Gospel that The Lord Jesus Christ has became sin and died on the cross for your sin, fully paying the price @ consequence @ satisfying the justice of God that when I have confessed my sins... asked for forgiveness turned to Jesus deciding in my life I would follow Him... believe in my heart @ cling on @ put my whole trust upon what Jesus Christ has done for me... confessing and making Him my Lord... Jesus has definitely changed my life from that point onward. I can not describe how the Good News has struck my heart that day... Being a Buddhist for years since I was a teenager I just had the revelation that Jesus is The Son of God and God Himself manifested in the flesh. I knew I found TRUTH when I made the decision to believe and receive Him into my life.

I had this heart full of joy after that and slowly having a better understanding and a greater assurance on Salvation. I began to look forward and responding to the conviction of The Holy Spirit regarding certain areas of my life and slowly throwing out hundreds of mini idol statues at home... throwing out all the books on the topic of Buddhism and just having a renewed mind about life having Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. I began to see this life is temporary and short... I began to have the understanding of what I have been saved from... Hell... and knowing the Grace and Mercy showed upon my life received in His Kingdom and on my way to heaven has brought me to be humbled in many many occasions... I say to myself "This is real". Although there were days of challenges, rainy days, disappointments and discouragements, at times the assurance of Salvation is strengthen and comfort and help comes to pick me up to continue the race.

2. I became passionate about my FAITH and began sharing to people what happened to me

I remember there was this one time I actually flew across the country to meet 2 friends and began sharing to them about what Jesus has done in my life in a restaurant during dinner. I was so on fire and enthusiastic that I was thinking "I have to tell people about Jesus." I was just recently converted and transformed at that time.

Years has passed since then and I have went through so many ups and downs trying to maneuver myself through the bushes and thick jungle (one the reason being I wasn't planted in a Church and didn't have a Pastor for the first 3 years of my Christian baby walk). But once in awhile, I would have the opportunity to share Jesus to random people, co-workers, friends of friends, close friends and so on. I knew Jesus Christ is Lord and the Son of The Living God... I had assurance and I have a testimony to share.

Some of them who knew me before I was a Christian saw the changed in me... and I want to encourage you too that your sharing about Jesus to friends and families does make a difference. Jesus has changed my life and others knows that too.

Some were annoyed, some took it in a whim, some tried to make their own conclusion of what happened to me (probably throughout the years I began to have some wisdom on how to share my Faith, I would have done things differently that time if I had the wisdom I have now)... But ultimately talking about Jesus is one of my passions and I really appreciate it when another brother or sister in Christ shares what Jesus has done in their life too.

3. I've learned how to pray

1st I was baptized in water

2nd I was baptized in The Holy Spirit

Then life wasn't the same in regards of prayer. I have to say praying in immersing in the comfort of The Father, having fellowship with The Son in His Holy Spirit has been one of the foundation that has helped me to stay a Christian when pressured and questioned about my Faith... When things goes wrong and when challenges comes by... Prayer has indeed helped me go through the hard times and answered prayers has come timely to provide me for protection and guidance.

4. I began to read AND understand the Bible

It wasn't long before I had this heart and thought that "Now I need to get myself a Bible and begin to read it." This happened a few days after I received Jesus (If I could remember correctly). I began to study the Word of God and make side notes and highlighted certain verses that has caught my attention or has blessed me.

Reading the Bible helped me to understand certain sermons better and has blessed me to understand the Gospel in a better way. Not mentioning the help I get in my prayer... In comfort... and so on...

But I also have to say. reading the Bible has saved my life by making me realize the wrong turns and wrong paths I was walking upon in life... Helped me to make wise decisions and blessed me turn away from destructive habits. Having said that, it also gave me revelation and wisdom to just continue running the race as a Christian. Letting the Word of God sinking in my life and putting into action what is demanded of The Lord our God... This gave me tremendous help as I am reminded of God's Word at times when I really needed it.

5. I began to love other not with an oogie gooie kind of love but care, being kind and having a heart to serve others

It was like I had a heart of stone before and was only thinking of myself, I and me all the time... When reality hits and I was converted... It was like I was given a heart of flesh that began pumping and placed others before me. I began to serve others... help others... and show kindness to people. Jesus just gave me so much love that I just began to love others too.

Began to happily open doors for people, began to try to actually make an effort to understand others, had the heart to make others comfortable... Although I am far than perfect, but there was this changed from within me that just wanted to share the Love of Christ that was shed in my heart.

Well, that's all I wanted to share today... The Lord Jesus Christ can really help you in your walk as a Christian... If you haven't had an encounter with Jesus yet... It's worth your time, effort and life to seek the TRUTH and sincerely finding out for yourself: Who is Jesus?

Don't Kill Yourself | God Loves you

God loves you that He sent His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for your sin... He is not willing that anyone should perish but all would come into the saving knowledge through The Lord Jesus Christ... Salvation for our soul... a reconciliation with the Creator of Heaven and Earth through the redeeming blood of Jesus...

Your sinful life can not last for long until it gives you an emptiness within your heart and an unsatisfied desire of seeking for something that could stop the burning lust that so makes you miserable in life... You can not stand to be alone... Because in those times the unbearable thoughts of past regrets... unfulfilled life... failures... disappointments... the depression and also the defeats... as well as the feeling of life is meaningless comes to your heart and mind... It torments you to make you stay up all night in tears and also in pain...

What if I told you... God loves you and He cares... and you yourself know that you can not blame God on the outcome of your life... Because up until today, the outcome of your life is based on your previous decisions... and you yourself know it...

You chose to bitter instead of forgiving yourself or others...

You chose to live in sin instead of sincerely and earnestly seeking God...

How can I forgive myself??

How can God forgive me from what I have done??

How could I forgive others from what they had done to me??

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

The Holy Bible

The Gospel of John

Chapter 3, verses 16 to 18

God loves you even when you hate yourself... He loves you that He was willing to die for you... became sin for you... taking full punishment of sin upon Himself... to satisfy the Justice of God. Because if you were to receive what you deserve... The punishment for the sins you have committed... the wicked and evil deeds you have done birthed from your heart... You would not dare to even justify yourself come judgement day when you stand in front of God in His Full Glory and Holiness and Power after you have died... You would not be spared if you were to receive what you deserve...

BUT

Praise be to GOD, our Father... Lord, God Most High...

That Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour has died on the Cross for your sins that you would be justified by Jesus' righteousness  and what He has done on the Cross for you having being a propitiation for you... That you would not be condemned but SAVED... believing in Him Whom had died for you... That you would not have to pay for the debt of your sins against God...

He died... was buried AND rose up from the dead... having victory upon death and sin...

• Jesus can set you free from the bondage of sin that so makes you miserable and depressed...
• He can give you an unimaginable PEACE within you having knowledge that know you are reconciled with God...
• Jesus is able to heal the wounds in your heart... in your mind... in your soul...
• And God, The Father can be your God, your Father...
• Trust in Him... He Loves you... He really does...

Even if your problems would not disappear... But you can receive a peace in your heart to sail through the challenges and the troubles in this life... Having your eyes set in a better hope... a better life and a better future in The Lord Jesus Christ... in the afterlife...

I'm not here to do a theology class... or to debate about Christianity... But I'm here to tell you...

that...

JESUS CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS REAL

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS ALIVE

AND HE WILL COME BACK AGAIN

TO SET THINGS RIGHT IN THIS WORLD

Therefore, my hope is not in this world... But in Christ Jesus, my Lord...

Cry out to Him... Call upon His Name... Ask for Him to save you

Through One Man: The Gospel

From the Book of Romans; The letters of Paul, The Apostle (Chapter 5)

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

          Through one man, Adam, sin entered into the world

          Through one Man, Jesus Christ our Lord,

          shall we be saved and washed from all sin

Looking at people makes me wonder about one question sometimes…

“What is your hope? Where do you think you will go if you die tonight?”

I ask myself many questions, and I find myself amazed on how much The Lord Himself has guided me to make me realized how lost I was before I even knew Him. How depraved I was in my soul for Peace, and Joy, and Relationship with God through Jesus Christ our Lord. How… Indeed… wicked and evil were my deeds… the hidden secret sins… that I committed behind the scenes, and behinds the eyes of men and women… Thinking I was a good man… Thinking I would end up in a “better” place when I die… Only to realize, that IF I haven’t accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour… If I didn’t repented of my sins and place my trust upon what Jesus has done for me… My soul was heading straight to hell without question. The Grace of God, His mercy upon my life… was glorified in The Son and He saved me from His wrath against sin, when He accepted me into His presence… entering into a relationship with Him.

Death, the wages of sin… the payment… the punishment for the sin that has entered into this very world since the time when Adam and Eve sinned… Sin has permeated into all men and women alike…

            Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

The letters of Paul, The Apostle

Romans Chapter 5, verse 12

Heaven is indeed very real, the dwelling place of our Almighty God. At the end of the day, there would be an eternity that we would spend the afterlife at… either that we will dwell in God’s presence or not.

It’s either that we’ll be in the Kingdom of Light with God and everything that is good, pleasing unto The Lord, perfect and pure…

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me,

“It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”

The Apostle John

The Book of Revelation,

Chapter 21, verses 1 to 7

OR

We will end up in a place where there is no God. no good things. A total separation from God’s Presence… a place where you would wish you would have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour when you had the chance… but didn’t… for eternity… over eternity… over eternity… you are tormented by the hopelessness in utter darkness…

“… And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. …”

The Words of Jesus Christ our Lord

The Book of Matthew

Chapter 8, verses 11 & 12

And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

The Apostle John

The Book of Revelation,

Chapter 20, verses 13 to 15

Hell is mentioned in the Bible, as well as Heaven. With significant distinguishable characteristics to give a glimpse of what is to come. It won’t be a place where one could make some happy club, or party all night long… it won’t be a place where people are given into lust for eternity… enjoying the lustful pleasures of sin… It is a place of judgement for your sins, the consequences of rejecting the One and Only True Way to God… The Lord Jesus Christ… the narrow gate that leads to life. Life eternal…

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

The Apostle John

The Book of Revelation,

Chapter 21, verse 8

I’ve seen young men and young women; burning in their sin on earth… having a delusion in the pleasures of sin thinking it could fulfil the emptiness of their soul. The sin that has been passed down to all mankind… from the sin that Adam has committed… manifesting in the world even today.

The sinful nature of man, the wickedness in one’s heart and mind… even a person would be conscience and know about their own sin… feeling the condemnation and seeking for an answer in various ‘spiritual’ practices but still not having the peace and freedom from the sin that is dwelling in their lives… Some finds ways of escape and other distractions to avoid themselves from facing the reality of life… the failures… the wrong… the unforgiveness… the regrets of sin… having depression… a mind that is not at peace… having problem sleeping at night… hatred… the thought of murder… the need to feel powerful and in control… having fear of the things that is going on around this world at current times…

This is when the Good News comes in a new light of appreciation.

That there is a hope… not in this world that will be condemned and judge but in Jesus Christ our Lord…

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

The letters of Paul, The Apostle

Romans Chapter 5, verse 1

That believing our sins can be washed cleaned by the blood of Jesus Christ, that He shed His blood for the salvation of our soul… He died and was buried… on the third day, God rose Him back from the dead and He is still alive today that we might have a hope that we too can be alive with Him one day. And when we enter into the afterlife… for eternity we will be with The Lord Jesus Christ.

Repent of your sins. Turn away from them. Commit your life to follow and to serve Jesus. To be dependent on the His righteousness… For He became sin for us… taking the punishment that we should suffer for eternity… To give us a life that is filled with hope, peace and joy in God’s presence… To give us a hope for the things which are to come… Inviting Him into our lives, into our heart… Call upon His Name and surrender to Him. Only He can save you from the consequence of sin. Death. Eternal separation from God. Eternal torment.

            “… These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. …”

The Words of Jesus Christ our Lord

The Book of John

Chapter 16, verse 33

To have peace in Him, in our Lord Jesus Christ… believing that He came from God and is God Himself, manifested in the flesh… Being filled with the Holy Spirit and having the peace that only He can provide in this world that is passing by.
