*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*


*IT IS ABOUT TIME!*


*Scripture Treasure.*

Rev 20:15 *And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.*


*Insight and Highlight.*

It is about time you are truthful to yourself. Are you in Christ? Are you a child of God? Are you born again?


*Scripture Commentaries.*

The human is made up of the body, soul, and spirit, 1 Thess 5:21. Out of the three, only the spirit does not die. It goes back to God, who gave it, Eccl 12:7.

The body decays and is destroyed, Job 19:26-27, 2 Cor 5:1. It 'sleeps' in the grave, 1 Thess 4:13-18.

The soul, which represents human personhood, dies, Gen 35:18, Ezk 18:20. At death, it is taken away and separated from the body. It is *"......away from the body and at home with the Lord”* 2 Cor 5:6-8; Philpns 1:23.

While the body sleeps in the grave, the soul now separated in death, and the spirit that does not die are instantly transported from their earthly bodies into the presence of Jesus awaiting a glorious resurrection

On resurrection morning, those who died in Christ will receive a new body, John 5:28-29, Philpns 3:21, 1 Cor 15:42-44, 53-54, 1 Thess 4:13-17.

The soul, the glorified body, and the spirit will be reunited at resurrection morning to stand before God. They will be reunited to be with God forever, Rev 21-22.

The above transformation is only applicable to the believer who died in Christ.

Do you love life? You will love eternity with Christ more.

Does this world have attractions and precious treasures?

You have not seen anything yet. You have not seen anything more precious than what Heaven prepares for you if you make it there. Rev 21:11-27 tells us how Heaven is.

The unbeliever will not receive a glorified body, but his/her soul is also reunited with his/her spirit to stand judgment before God, Rom 14:12.

Both believers and unbelievers will face judgment, 2 Cor 5:10, Rev 22:11-12.

The believers will be in Heaven to receive the rewards of what they have done and their works pass through test 1 Cor 3: 13-15. The believer is not condemned in judgment, John 3:16, Rom 8:1.

The unbeliever is condemned, John 3:18, they will not be in Heaven. While the believer will *"....enter in through the gates into the city.*, the unbeliever will be outside and away from the city, Rev 22: 14-15.

He/she will eternally be in hell, which is reserved for the devil and his angels, Matt 25:41.

The believer, once given a glorified body, dies no more. He is forever with the Lord in Heaven, I Thess 4:13.

The unbeliever suffers a second death. Another name for eternal hell fire. They are cast into the lake

*"And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.* This is because their names are not in the book of life, Rev 20:14, 21:8.

It is about time you reconsider your life as a whole.

The life we live in can not be compared with eternity.

Heaven is endless, and so also is the *....gnashing of teeth....."* in hell, Matt 13:42.

You can not be in neither Heaven nor Hell. There is no purgatory, no middle point. You must be in one.

You can not be transferred from Hell to Heaven when you are dead. No change of eternal destination, Lk 16:26.

No mercy is available for the dead. He can no longer receive mercy or recommend mercy for those who are living, Luke 16: 27-31.

There is no prayer of forgiveness for a dead person. It can not work for them. They know nothing. They are forever gone, Eccl 9:5

Destinies can not be reversed at death.

Do not say you will confess before you die. There may not be a chance for a last-minute confession, Lk 16:22, ref Lk 23:42-43.

If you miss Heaven, you have missed it. No reversal!

Mercy is received when you confess with your *"......mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.*, Rom 10:9-10.

Are you truly in Christ?

Do not deceive yourself!

Do not miss Heaven!


*Remorse corner.*

Do you believe all these?

If you believe there is sin, you should believe there is salvation.

If you know and believe that people die as God said they would and in the same Bible God said they would either go to Heaven or Hell, then you should believe that God is true and so are His words, 1 Sam 2:6.


*Call to Word action.*

Whether you believe it or not, it is better and in your best interest that you believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Believe in Him to make it to eternity in Heaven with Him.


*The Christian clarion duty.*

As a child of God, it is about time you decide you will not go back to the world. Lk 9:62.

Tell those who do not believe that it is high time they decided to come to Jesus today! ref 2 Cor 6:2, Heb 3:7-8.


*Prayer.*

Lord, after this life, let me spend eternity with You in Jesus name.


Good morning all, and have a blessed day today.


God bless you.
