Where To
Sitting at a major airport recently, I said to my wife, “Where is everyone going to?” Her response was, “They’re all wondering the same thing.”
Yes, everyone seems to be going somewhere. It is characteristic of these days we live in, just before the coming of the Lord. The Bible states, “The time of the end: many shall run to and fro” (Daniel 12:4). We live in a restless world, and Satan uses this on-the-go attitude to keep people from considering where they are ultimately going when they leave this world.
The Bible tells of two destinations after this life, HEAVEN and HELL. All of us will end up in one or the other. For those who have believed the gospel and received Christ as Savior, Heaven is their final destination. Those who refuse God’s salvation through the work of Calvary will spend eternity in Hell, referred to as “Lake of Fire” (Revelation 20:14). That’s why the Lord said: “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).
