WHEN YOUR BODY DIES KEEP LIVING FOREVER!
When a person dies, frequently people make statements that reflect
their love for the person like “he is with Jesus now” or “she became
an angel” etc. Most people in ministry will not correct a grieving
person even when their statements are very incorrect and some in
ministry will also make stupid statements about a dead person.
Before people encounter death we need to teach the truth. The truth
is God has given only Jesus the “AUTHORITY TO JUDGE” [Jn
5:27 NI] and we cannot make judgemental statements about a dead
person. When our body dies, we all go on into eternity, some to
“ETERNAL LIFE” and some to “ETERNAL PUNISHMENT”
[Mt 25:46 NI]. The desirable eternity is “ETERNAL LIFE” and
we do not have to wait till judgment day to find out. Jesus clearly
advises us “THOSE WHO HEAR MY WORDS AND
BELIEVE IN HIM WHO SENT ME HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.
THEY WILL NOT BE JUDGED, BUT HAVE ALREADY
PASSED FROM DEATH TO LIFE” [Jn 5:24 GN]. We can go
straight to eternal life when our body dies if we believe in God and
obey Jesus. Some will say they did not know Jesus taught that yet
Jesus also said in another way “WHOEVER OBEYS MY
TEACHING WILL NEVER DIE” [Jn 8:51 GN]. Jesus told
Martha, “EVERYONE WHO LIVES AND BELIEVES IN ME
WILL NEVER DIE” [Jn 11:26 NAS]. Do you believe and obey
Jesus and know you will not be judged and will have eternal life?
