Will I lose my soul, and eternal life with God in paradise?

Dear soul, the time has come that we must seriously consider the above question. Why? Because we have learned from the Bible that the time period from May 21st thru October 21st in the upcoming year of 2011 might possibly be the prophesied time of God’s final judgment day. We have strong biblical evidence that the end of this world is very near.

Here is the prophesy of God’s coming from the Bible:

(Jude 1:14 KJV)  And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

(Jude 1:15 KJV)  To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

This prophesy was given by God to a man named Enoch who was born in the year 7106 BC and who was miraculously taken from the earth into heaven 365 years later in the year 6741 BC. (See Genesis 5:23,24)

This event took place 1,751 years before another notable and horrific Bible event. This event took place in the year 4990 BC. It was the destruction of all living things from off the face of the earth by a flood sent by God. Everything living was destroyed by that flood except for a man named Noah, seven of his family members, and various animals of the world. (See Genesis 7:4,5)

Before this event took place, God warned mankind through his prophets. He now warns us today again as we see the day approaching. How does God warn us? He warns us from the Bible. He tells us that He will finally judge sinners, destroy this world by fire and destroy the souls of all sinners by eternal fire (the second death).  We read of this in the Bible here:

(2 Pet 3:7 KJV)  But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

(Mat 25:41 KJV)  Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

(Mat 25:46 KJV)  And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

(2 Pet 3:10 KJV)  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

This awful and terrifying event will happen even if we don’t believe it. We can be sure of this because God, which cannot lie, said, “Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” (Luke 21:33-36 KJV)  By “pass away’, God means to go unfulfilled.

So now that I have been warned, what do I have to do to escape this awful judgment and receive eternal life?

The Bible again gives us the answer. We read:

(2 Pet 3:9 KJV)  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

We have to repent; we have to ask God for His mercy. We have to look at or life and honestly ask ourselves if we are living a life that is pleasing to the God of the Bible. We also have to believe in the gospel with all our heart, meaning that we forsake any idols we have and obediently follow Jesus and all that He commands us to do in His word the Bible.

(Acts 16:29 KJV)  Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

(Acts 16:30 KJV)  And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

(Acts 16:31 KJV)  And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

(Acts 16:32 KJV)  And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

Many people are deceived into thinking that as long as they mentally believe that Jesus is their saviour and that he died for their sins, that this guarantees them eternal life. This is not true. When one becomes saved, the evidence will be very strong in his/her life that they have been changed and they will begin to hate all unrighteousness and love righteousness because they have been cleansed (by the sacrifice of Christ on the cross) and made spiritually new (born again) in their souls. The Bible says that we can deceive people but we cannot fool or mock God.

(Gal 6:7 KJV)  Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

(Gal 6:8 KJV)  For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

(Mat 23:28 KJV)  Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

(Mat 7:17 KJV)  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

(Mat 7:18 KJV)  A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

(Mat 7:19 KJV)  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

God knows those that are His by sacrifice and we will know also.

(Psa 50:5 KJV)  Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.

(2 Tim 2:19 KJV)  Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

(Rom 8:15 KJV)  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

(Rom 8:16 KJV)  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

(Gal 4:6 KJV)  And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

(1 John 5:18 KJV)  We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

(1 John 5:19 KJV)  And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.

Before Enoch was taken into heaven he had the testimony that he lived a life pleasing to God. To please God, one must have faith. In order to get true soul-saving faith, one must hear the Bible. Begin to read the Bible earnestly and believe that it is the word of God speaking to you personally. Ask (Pray) God to give you understanding and to give you the faith of Jesus. It’s totally up to God when and whether He will save you or not. Who knows if He will save you so that you will escape eternal fire? Today is still the day of Salvation; there is still hope before the end comes.

Here are some verses for you to consider further:

(2 Cor 6:2 KJV)  (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

(Lam 3:25 KJV)  The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.

(Lam 3:26 KJV)  It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

(Heb 11:5 KJV)  By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

(Heb 11:6 KJV)  But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

(Rom 10:17 KJV)  So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
(Jonah 3:9 KJV)  Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?

(John 3:16 KJV)  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

(2 Cor 5:20 KJV)  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

(1 Th 2:19 KJV)  For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?

Disclaimer: We have not understood the importance of time till now(Ecclesiastes 8:5). The Bible tells us that the time when things happen in our world is very important and is orchestrated by God’s will and salvation plan for man. Although the dates given in this tract for the return of Christ is a prediction made by men, this information comes from the study of many biblical passages and should be investigated earnestly and with a humble mind while asking God for truth. God says,“ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find;” but if you fail to do this, how can you possibly know the truth?

Here are a few verses that stress the importance of God’s timing of events that take place in our world.

(Eccl 8:5 KJV)  Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.

(Eccl 8:6 KJV)  Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.

(Eccl 3:1 KJV)  To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

(Gal 4:4 KJV)  But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

(Rom 11:25 KJV)  For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

(Luke 21:24 KJV)  And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

(Luke 21:32 KJV)  Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
