READ:
HEBREWS 9:27-28
There are
all kinds of theories today about what happens after death. Some theories say
you go and sleep in the grave, waiting the day of resurrection. Some say the
human spirit returns and blends into God’s light and is absorbed by him. Others
say that if you were not righteous enough, you will go to a place called
purgatory. There your sins will be purged as the believers on earth continue to
intercede for you. Only then will you be accepted into Heaven.
There are yet other theories. Some people believe you return to this earth to live the number of times God had written on the palm of your hand. Some say depending on what you did on earth, you could either return as a plant or an animal. Have you asked yourself why so many theories about the afterlife exist? What does the Bible teach about the afterlife? Hebrews 9:27 says “And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment.” God says he has an appointment with every inhabitant of Planet Earth. That appointment is death, which will be followed by judgement.
So who is telling the truth about the afterlife? Whom do we believe? God, of course! He cannot lie. He is our creator. He has earned the right to speak about what will happen in the afterlife. All other theories are false, and are promoted by Satan to deceive man. He wants to make people live recklessly by telling them nothing serious follows after death. But once they die, they come face to face with the truth – judgement. This is how Satan lures people into hell.
The documented account of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-31 is a real-life incident. Are you prepared for the afterlife?
