I know we have all heard the term,"eternity" But what does it really mean? We hear those words,forever and forever,and we tend to just shrug it off, mainly because we cannot conceive of such a length of time.Any time considered longer than how long it takes for a man's wife to get ready to go out on the town, is called, an eternity. Any time longer than a man's life-span on this earth is longer than he can imagine.We are filled with awe when we see an artifact brought back from an archaeological dig, that has survived more or less intact,from four thousand years ago. So, who can truly grasp the concept of the truth of Eternity? We cannot explain it in years, because it is an unbelievable concept simply to imagine the span of time the world we live on in those terms,which has been put at between 100,000 years, to a million or more. But, I have heard it explained in the best possible way ever, so I thought I would pass it along to you.
Imagine if you will, a snow white dove, flying around the world, with a silken scarf in it's beak, and every few times,say, every thousand years, It passes over a 10 ton granite boulder, and that silken scarf just barely grazes the very top of the boulder. By the time it takes for that boulder to be worn down by that silk scarf, into sand, just one second of eternity will have clicked by.That is a long time, my friend.
And yet, the Bible tells us that we will spend Eternity either in a beautiful heaven, or writhing in torment in hell. It also tells us that God won't put us in one or the other, but that we are on earth to choose to which place we will go. For me, the choice is simple.I choose heaven.I am an absolute baby about it when I burn my finger, so I am going to avoid burning in hell at all costs.So now, if you are still alive, it is time for you to choose, since you can't change your mind after you die, the time is now, because there are no do-overs.The myth of re-incarnation is a lie from the pit of hell,Because the Bible also warns us that it is appointed unto man ONCE to die.And, as we have all had pointed out to us very recently all over the globe,you can be here in perfect health,and the next moment, you can be gone! You can't even count on your next breath. Your next movement, your next step could be fatal!
God sets before you life everlasting in heaven, or hell.Even if you choose not to choose, that is still a choice! Not choosing God, is turning him down.
This is your chance.Where will you spend Eternity?
OUI?
