Which Will You Choose?

Wednesday's Devotion (3-24-04)

"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:13-14 (KJV)

If you're coming to here to hear, "Everyone goes to Heaven, when they die!" then you're at the wrong place! Not everyone will go to Heaven. These scriptures actually tell us, that more will be lead to destruction than to life. That means that more people are going to Hell, than to Heaven. It is sad, but there is a way that leads to death and there is a way that leads to life. If you read the Bible and follow the instructions in the Bible, you will find life and you will go to Heaven. If you ignore God's Word and His commandments, you will find death and Hell! Death is a place of eternal torture, that we can't even imagine how painful it will really be. On the other hand Heaven, is a place of joy and we can't imagine how joyful it will be. Very few people find the path to life. People can't find the road to life, because they're seeking something other than the Lord. Some seek drugs, some money, some sex and etc. There are many ways that seem good to us, but there is only one way that is really good for us! What seems good to us, isn't always what is good for us!

Some of you may say, "Well, the way of life can't possibly be as fun as the sinful life, I live!" let me tell you something. Everyone that you see, that follows the Lord, used to live without the Lord and we all walked the way of death. With that being said, if your sinful life that leads to death is better than a life following Jesus, why am I still following Jesus? I am 20 years old, don't you think a 20 year old, wants to live life? Well, I do want to live life and I do by following the Lord! It is not boring to me at all to follow Jesus. It is a very rewarding and fun life to live and when it is over, I will have even more joy! When I didn't follow the Lord, I was a miserable human being. I was miserable and if I would've continued in that way and died in that way, I would've found myself even more miserable. Some people may compare Heaven to broccoli (without cheese of course) and hell to chocolate. Well let me tell you, neither places are boring, but Hell, isn't sweet like chocolate. Heaven and life are sweet, but Hell is very bitter and miserable.

Which way will you choose life or death? Hell or Heaven? I hope you make the choice that is good for you! Get in the Word of God and you will find life everlasting, if you live by the scriptures!
