WHERE DOES YOUR SOUL GO WHEN YOU DIE?

                                              
 WHERE DOES              YOUR  SOUL GO 
       WHEN YOU DIE? 






This is something most of us do not like like to think about - yet it is the most important question you will ever be asked. Your eternal destiny depends on what you believe.


 Dear Friend,  
 today I want to ask you a few pertinent personal  questions about what you believe. 

 You do not need to be afraid to answer them  because I am not going to ask you to fill in a questionnaire -  You will remain anonymous and your answers remain between you and God.

I do not know you, and if by chance you should happen to know me, I will never even know whether you chose to read this blog unless of course you wish to tell me that you did.

I will never know your answers and I do not need to. Nevertheless they are and always will be the most important questions you will ever be asked. Where you will spend eternity depends on what you believe before you breathe your last breath.


Be honest with yourself - if you have doubts admit them to yourself and seek the answers.

God has given us a road map (The Bible) here are some of the items it covers which I  have copied below:

"This Book is the inspired, infallible Word of God.
The Bible contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers.

 Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding,  its histories are true, its prophecies are accurate, and its decisions are immutable. Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, and practice it to be holy. 

It contains Light to direct you, Food to support you,  and Comfort to cheer you. It is the traveler's map,  the pilgrim's staff,  the pilot's compass, the soldier's sword and the Christian's charter. Here Paradise is restored, Heaven opened, and the gates of hell disclosed. 

CHRIST IS ITS GRAND SUBJECT, our good its design, and the glory of God its end.  It should fill the memory, rule the heart and guide the feet. Read it slowly, prayerfully, frequently, it is a mine of wealth, a Paradise of glory, and a River of pleasure. It is given you in life, will be opened at the judgement, and will be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibilty, will reward the greatest labor, and condemns all who trifle with its sacred contents."

I am not going to ask you whether you believe that God exists, you only have to look around you to see all the marvels of nature for proof of His existence. But if you don't believe it, it really doesn't matter, your beliefs will not change the facts.

I am also not going to ask you whether you believe that we all die at some stage - every  person on this earth knows that to be a fact. But none of us worry about it too much - it is somewhere far off in the future - why worry about it now - but the reality remains and every once
in a while we are nudged into the reminder of it.

What I am going to ask you though is:

(1)   What do you believe happens to
        your soul when you die?

God's Word tells us  :  "It is appointed for man once to die and after this the judgement."
Hebrews 9:27
