Listen from:
Years ago the American troop-ship, Tuscania, filled with young American soldiers, was sunk off the coast of Ireland. It is said that as the ship took the fatal plunge, many of the men sang lustily, “Where do we go from here?”
How sad that so many dear boys, the flower of our nation and the joy and hope of many hearts and homes, should pass into eternity not knowing where they were going. And yet Scripture is so plain.
“He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” John 3:3636He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36). “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Rom. 10:1313For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13).
Dear reader, if you were facing death, what answer could you give to the question,” Where do we go from here?”
If you were asked the question,
“Where will you go from here?”
Could you give back the answer,
With confidence and cheer:
“Trusting in Christ, my Saviour,
Who bought me with His blood,
I’ll go from here to heaven;
I’ll be at home with God?”
Others are coming to Him!
Oh take Him while you may!
Cast all your doubts behind you,
And come to Christ today.
Then should Death sound your summons,
You need not have a fear.
Receive Him as your Saviour,
And go to Heaven from HERE!
