Are you sure you will go to heaven when you die?

People do not think of death as they think everyone else will die except me. Everyone will die sooner or later one day. By nature everyone is scared to die. What about you, are you scared to die? What’s going to happen after death? The Bible is the word of God, what does the Bible say in this subject? Hebrews 9:27 And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment.

What is the judgment going to be? Heaven or Hell. For how long?  For eternity, forever.  What makes you absolutely sure that you will go to heaven? Is it because you believe in God, you believe in Jesus?

The Bible says, even demons believe in God and they tremble. (James 2:19) Yet, demons are not saved, they will end up in hell.

Believing means surrendering your life to Jesus.  There are a lot of people who thought they believed in Jesus and went to church and  may end up in hell.  Let’s see what Jesus said.

Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Luke 7:25 ‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, ‘I do not know where you come from.’

You may know Jesus but Jesus doesn’t know you, why?  Because to know a person you need to have a personal relationship. You believe the name of your president, but personally you don’t know him as you don’t have a relationship with him, it is the same with Jesus, you need to have a personal relationship by surrendering your life to him. Then Jesus will know you.

Do you want to make sure 100% that when you die you will definitely go to heaven, not to hell?

John 17:3 And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

The eternal life is to know the only true living God and have a love relationship with him, enjoy him, feeding your soul with his word and growing in him, and attending a good Bible teaching Church.
