Are you sure of your destiny?

Job 14-16 Job asks the age-old question: “man dies and is powerless, he expires – and where is he?” and  “if a man dies, will he live again?”  Job struggled, but Jesus gave the answer: I am the way to the after-life; believe in me.

It seems that all religions/faiths believe in some form of after-life, but the real question is what Job asked: “will he live again?” The resurrection of Jesus proves that there is life after death. Jesus spoke of the reality of our destiny in Luke 16:19-31. Two men, Lazarus, and the rich man die. Jesus pulls back the curtain into eternity to reveal men’s destiny and their after-life.

Jesus told that story to show men that our destiny is sealed while we are alive. Our witness is to that truth is Jesus Christ, who “died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third day according to the scriptures and that he appeared.” [1Cor 15:3-7] He appeared to not just Peter but to the many that went forth to tell the world: yes, there is life after death.

From Jesus, we can know that yes, we will live again. The question all need to ask is:  where will you and I  spend eternity? The two thieves on the cross and the story Jesus told in Luke 16 tell us that man must choose NOW for once death comes, there is no return ticket to this earthly life.

What will you choose?

Jesus said, “I have come that they might have life.” [Jn 10:40 & Jn 5:24].
