The other day when I was driving home from school I noticed a bumper sticker that said, "Don't take your organs with you to Heaven because Heaven knows we need them down here." It got me thinking about eternal security. Not everybody is going to Heaven. Like the Bible says, "Ye must be born again," it doesn't matter how good you are on this earth. You could be the most moral person on the planet but that won't get you anywhere when you die. The only thing that matters is what you do with Jesus Christ. You can either accept Him or reject Him, and it is as simple as that. If you accept him and turn away from sin, then, you go to Heaven when you die. If you reject Him, then you will go to Hell. If you don't believe me then read it for yourself in the Bible. Read John chapter three if you are interested.
I hate to sound so negative but if you don't do anything in this life about your sinfulness, then you will not have a chance to get it settled when you meet the maker of the universe face to face. If you reject Jesus He will tell you, "Depart from me for I never knew you," when the day of Judgement comes. Eternal separation from God in Hell is the end result.
People think that in Hell it will be a big party, but that is the farthest thing from the truth. It is a place of eternal fire and darkness. You might say well if it is fire then I will just burn up and poof I'm gone, but that is not the truth. If you never accept Jesus you will burn in the fire for all eternity.
Some of you out there might be saying, "Oh he is full of crap," but what if I am right. One day you will remember reading this message, and wished you would have read John chapter three.

Read "Gimpel the Fool" by Issac Bashevis Singer if you haven't yet. As the Rabbi says, "Believe. What harm is there in believing?"
