I know a secret.

With all of the suffering, lies, and veil affections of today, it is easy to see that the world as we know it has become a dangerous, downward spiral. After observing this, I feel my heart pressed to share some truth with you. I know a secret that has been hidden from you for too long. This world is temporary and your soul will live forever. It’s true, death is not the end! Now the secret is out and you have a very important choice to make. When life on earth has passed, where will you spend eternity? There are two choices. The first destination requires no planning ahead and serves as the default location for all of us. There is a great lake of fire with plenty of room for all of us to thrash around in our sorrows forever. The residents never rest but carry on continually with their weeping and gnashing of teeth. This is hell, and without redemption you will burn with all the unsaved sinners in the lake of fire. Your second option is a beautiful mansion on a street of gold, built by the greatest carpenter who ever was, is, and ever will be. Best of all, our Redeemer has already paid the price for our sins so that we may all enter into the kingdom of heaven. There is, however, one prerequisite. The Lord Jesus Christ said “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” John 3:3 (KJV). Friend, I’m worried for you. Do you know where you are going when you die? Do you have insight into your own fate? Can you get to heaven by being a good person? The answers are simple but few people find acceptance. For “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:” Romans 3:10 (KJV). “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” Romans 3:23 (KJV). “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:8 (KJV). Death is not the end! “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 6:23 (KJV). Did you catch it? Can you see the beautiful promise of the Lord? “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:13 (KJV). Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me” Revelation 3:20 (KJV). God hates sin and will not allow it in his presence. Therefore we have all earned our place in hell. Even so, “God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” John 3:16-17 (KJV). Friend, “God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” 1John 5:11-13 (KJV). So again, where will you spend eternity? Do you have insight into your own fate? We don’t deserve to go to heaven, but God loves us so much he has provided a straight and narrow path of salvation. Know this, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” Romans 10:9 (KJV). My dear friend, are you saved? Will you have everlasting life in heaven with the Lord Jesus Christ? If you are not saved, will you ask Jesus to save you today? “now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” 2Corinthians 6:2 (KJV). God wants you to ask him to come into your heart and save you. If you want Jesus to save you, pray to him like this: Dear God, I’m a sinner and I need your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ shed his precious blood and died to pay for my sins, and that you raised from the dead. Lord, please help me to not sin. Dear Jesus, come into my life as my personal savior. Amen. Now, if you repented, prayed for redemption, and put all your trust on the Lord, Jesus will prepare a place for you, with him, in heaven. Praise the Lord! Now read your Bible (KJV) every day to grow closer to Jesus. Talk to God in prayer every day. Get baptized, fellowship, and serve the Lord with other saved Christians. Most important of all, tell others about Jesus and his saving grace. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

You lot are nothing but selfish, weak-minded, pathetic individuals (only seeking salvation for your own end, not for the ends of others)... to be ignorant enough to buy into a system of tribal law written thousands of years ago and see this a 'truth' in today's society is actually quite funny. And I know the come-back! I'm going to hell! Or maybe I'm not because it doesn't exist. Even if there is a God (which there is not) why would He (an ALL-LOVING being) send His own children to a place of eternal damnation, without even a second chance? (Or for some a first, as he does not make Himself obvious to a gentle, peace loving Hindu, for example). With death comes eternal peace for all; and it comes in the form of our body decaying, and our mind (or, as some in past times have mistakenly phrased it, the soul) being made up of chemical reactions which produces conscience decays with it. There is no salvation for you Bible-bashing freaks, just a nice long sleep. So, enjoy wasting your life away addicted to your God in a way that is identical to that of a junky on the street (science has PROVEN [a phase you lot aren't too familiar with] religion acts to fufil a psycological crux in the same way a drug, or love, does). I hate the lots of you, in the same way you will hate me! Truth is SO sweet... DCI
I feel bad for the athiest who has so much anger. He/She said some things I must comment on, even though they will hate me for it. Dear Athiest, Do you know everything? Do you know at least half of everything? Lets say you know half of everything there is to know. Is it possible that God exist in the other half of everything that you don't know about? Friend, there is not an all loving God. What??? Your a sinner, I'm a sinner, we are all sinners. God hates sin and will not allow it in his presence, therfore, we all deserve to go to hell. But God loves us so much that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Friend, I hope one day you come to know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. I invite you email me if you would like to have a civilized conversation. I will pray that you have peace in your heart, David.
It is always prudent to share the gospel with those who may not have ever heard it or understood it before. Thank God that although I didn't understand that good and crucial news for many years, it kept appearing by His grace everywhere I turned. I could not escape it, I could not cover it up with science, philosophy or my own vain interpretations. Thank God that this gospel, so hated by the world, continues to illuminate the hearts of those elect few who will obey it today. Keep on, David. Remember, it is not you they hate, it is Jesus Christ!
