▪︎How much time do you think you have left?
▪︎How old do you think you will become?
▪︎60 years?
▪︎70 years old?
▪︎Maybe 80, if you can get that old.
Psalms 90:10
As for the days of our life, they contain seventy years, Or if due to strength, eighty years, Yet their pride is but labor and sorrow; For soon it is gone and we fly away.
And then?
Then it comes down to it!
John 5:28-29
²⁸Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, ²⁹and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment.
A few may become a little older, but for some of you, the end will come so much sooner!
Remember that the decision where you will spend eternity is made on this side of the grave.
We know from the Bible that every person is personally responsible for this.
You must now make a decision that will determine where you will be in eternity.
Where will you be?
Will it be in hell or in heaven?
Did you repent, and do you follow the Christ?
Matthew 4:17
From that time Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Jesus says repent!
You tell me I can’t.
But when the Lord says repent,
▪︎ then you must,
▪︎ and then you can repent.
▪︎ And then you are not in the position to say I cannot.
Come to Him, repent, and accept the Christ!
You cannot be neutral in this!
You have to choose! And if you do not choose, then time will make the choice for you. But know that when time chooses for you, it will always turn out negative for you.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth and the life. And now pay attention! No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Without the Christ, a person is lost forever.
Matthew 25:46
These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.
Do you want to receive eternal life? Then believe the gospel, and come to the Lord Jesus!
Luke 16:27-31
²⁷And he said, ‘Then I beg you, father, that you send him to my father’s house ²⁸for I have five brothers in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ ²⁹But Abraham said, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.’ ³⁰But he said, ‘No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!’ ³¹But he said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.'”
The rich man in hel says: “I beg your father (Abraham) that you send him (Lazarus) to my father’s house. Because I still have 5 brothers, he can warn them so that they will not end up too in this place of torment.
But Abraham said, “They have Moses, and they have the prophets, let them listen to them,” and the rich man says, “No, father Abraham, if somebody comes to them from the death, they’ll repent.”
But Abraham said, “If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded by anyone returning from death.”
In other words, those gentlemen have been warned by His word. They have Moses and the prophets let them listen to them.
For today you could say. You have been warned by the Bible. Do you listen to that!
I am physically weakened and affected by ailments. After my heart stopped, and my breathing stopped, I woke up after 3 days (in the morning on the 4th day). As soon as I had been strengthened enough, I began to speak of God’s grace and love, and shortly afterwards also via the Internet, but I also experience daily, that people do not want to listen.
By not listening, people are in great danger, but they laugh about it.
Be honest with yourself,
▪︎ How long have you been reading my messages?
▪︎ How many of the more than 350 messages I wrote this year have you set aside without responding?
▪︎ How often have you heard the gospel?
▪︎ And how often have you been invited?
▪︎ How long have you been in a church without ever actually making the decision to follow Jesus
▪︎ And how often have you ignored or rejected the invitation?
The alarm phase is now red.
Hebrews 3:15
“Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me.”
If you hear His voice today, do not harden your heart.
Make sure you are ready before He returns, or before you take your last breath.
Don’t think you have enough time. You have no guarantee of a long life. You may not even make it to this evening, and when you go to bed tonight there is no certainty that you will get up healthy again tomorrow.
I’ve experienced it. Now everything was fine, and in an instant, in a twinkling of an eye, my heart stopped ticking, my breath stopped, and it was over.
Nobody can guarantee that your heart will continue to beat or that your breathing will not stop.
It is alarm phase red
Therefore accept God’s invitation NOW, it could be your very last chance!
▪︎Are you ready to meet your Creator?
▪︎And can you then enter His Kingdom?
▪︎Are you sure about that?
▪︎Or maybe hell is waiting for you, because you denied your chances to accept the invitations from the Christ.
Jesus said, and you may view this as a promise, as well as a warning.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
Again, if you are not sure that you belong to Jesus, make the decision to follow Jesus now.
