What follows here has the potential to change your life, and it is intended for those who have not yet discovered the Truth about life, who may have honest questions about how we got here and what is the meaning and purpose of life?
Check this video out and see 16 stories from people who actually died, and saw Heaven and Hell.
If you have already found these answers, then please pass it forward to someone you know who is still searching.
These are real stories from real people…
Heaven and Hell are real!
Whether you believe they are real or not is irrelevant. The truth is we each will know beyond a shadow of doubt the moment we die.
People ask all the time, “Why would a loving God send anyone to such an awful place as Hell?”
The answer is He doesn’t, it’s totally our decision. In fact God has done absolutely EVERYTHING He can to prevent it!
God is the Author and Creator of ALL that is, including all life, and anyone with a brain will recognize that we have not created ourselves, and nor is it possible that all the intricacies and complexities, as are found in creation, could have come about by mere coincidence or by accident, through something so lame brain as “natural selection!”
The evidence of intelligent design is all around us, and truly it would be easier to believe that a tornado could blow through a junkyard and produce a 747 jet, than to believe that we just evolved by chance.
No, God gave each of us a brain and along with that brain He’s also has given us a measure of faith so that we can recognize TRUTH when confronted with it.
Where we spend eternity is totally our decision.
The Bible tells us that we were created for God’s pleasure, in order that we of our own free will would choose to follow Him, to love Him, and to serve Him.
God is a loving God, who respects our decision, and He will not force upon us in eternity what we have rejected in life!
Being a Christian is NOT about being religious, it’s about having a relationship with the One who gave you your life.
Jesus explained it this way:
John 3:1-21
Born from Above1 There was a man of the Pharisee sect, Nicodemus, a prominent leader among the Jews.
2 Late one night he visited Jesus and said, “Rabbi, we all know you’re a teacher straight from God. No one could do all the God- pointing, God- revealing acts you do if God weren’t in on it.”
3 Jesus said, “You’re absolutely right. Take it from me: Unless a person is born from above, it’s not possible to see what I’m pointing to– to God’s kingdom.”
4 “How can anyone,” said Nicodemus, “be born who has already been born and grown up?
You can’t re- enter your mother’s womb and be born again. What are you saying with this ‘born- from- above’ talk?”
5 Jesus said, “You’re not listening. Let me say it again.
Unless a person submits to this original creation– the ‘wind hovering over the water’ creation, the invisible moving the visible, a baptism into a new life– it’s not possible to enter God’s kingdom.
6 When you look at a baby, it’s just that: a body you can look at and touch. But the person who takes shape within is formed by something you can’t see and touch– the Spirit– and becomes a living spirit.
7″ So don’t be so surprised when I tell you that you have to be ‘born from above’– out of this world, so to speak.
8 You know well enough how the wind blows this way and that. You hear it rustling through the trees, but you have no idea where it comes from or where it’s headed next.
That’s the way it is with everyone ‘born from above’ by the wind of God, the Spirit of God.”
9 Nicodemus asked,” What do you mean by this? How does this happen?”
10 Jesus said, “You’re a respected teacher of Israel and you don’t know these basics?
11 Listen carefully. I’m speaking sober truth to you. I speak only of what I know by experience; I give witness only to what I have seen with my own eyes.
There is nothing secondhand here, no hearsay. Yet instead of facing the evidence and accepting it, you procrastinate with questions.
12 If I tell you things that are plain as the hand before your face and you don’t believe me, what use is there in telling you of things you can’t see, the things of God?
13 “No one has ever gone up into the presence of God except the One who came down from that Presence, the Son of Man.
14 In the same way that Moses lifted the serpent in the desert so people could have something to see and then believe, it is necessary for the Son of Man to be lifted up– 15 and everyone who looks up to him, trusting and expectant, will gain a real life, eternal life.
16 This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son.
And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life.
17 God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was.
He came to help, to put the world right again.
18 Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why?
Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one- of- a- kind Son of God when introduced to him.
19 “This is the crisis we’re in: God- light streamed into the world, but men and women everywhere ran for the darkness.
They went for the darkness because they were not really interested in pleasing God.
20 Everyone who makes a practice of doing evil, addicted to denial and illusion, hates God- light and won’t come near it, fearing a painful exposure.
21 But anyone working and living in truth and reality welcomes God- light so the work can be seen for the God- work it is.”
(from the Message Bible) —-If you are reading this and you have not yet made that decision to be reconciled back into God’s family, to make Messiah Jesus Lord of your life, and then to serve Him and to follow Him all the days of your life, then why not take this opportunity to get serious with Him and ask God whether these things are true or not?
Don’t let the hypocrisy and past mistakes of man and of religion keep you from making this decision.
Many people have done things in God’s name who have not known Him, and the way to know the difference between those who are truly serving God and those who aren’t, you have but to judge them by the fruit that is being exhibited through their life.
Jesus put it this way:
Matthew 7:15-21
People Know You by Your Actions15 “Be careful of false prophets and teachers. They come to you looking gentle like sheep, but they are really dangerous like wolves.
16 You will know these people by what they do.
Grapes don’t come from thornbushes, and figs don’t come from thorny weeds.
17 In the same way, every good tree produces good fruit, but a bad tree produces bad fruit.
18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.
19 Every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 In the same way, you will know these false prophets and teachers by what they do.
21 Not all those who say ‘You are our Lord’ will enter into the kingdom of heaven. The only people who will enter the kingdom of heaven are those who do what my Father in heaven wants.”

A wise man once told me that ships at sea do not navigate by taking their bearings from other ships, and neither should we navigate through life by looking to the failures, hypocrisies and mistakes of man.
When it comes to being perfect, none of us are… and that’s why we need a Saviour!
God loves you and I love you too, and I hope you will take this time to ask yourself some very important questions, and I hope that after viewing the above video and reading what I have written here, that I have at least pricked your curiosity enough to want to know the truth and get more information.
Where you spend eternity will be totally your decision.
