What do you fear the most? Some people may give obvious answers like insects,heights and whatever phobias they have.However,looking deep down in our hearts, we fear death. The uncertainty of our LIFE AFTER DEATH. 

People have different views about afterlife. Here are some examples: 

*annihilation 

When you die then it's the end of you. There is no heaven nor hell. Naturally, there is no afterlife and God. 

*reincarnation 

When we die,we will be reborn to another creature depending on how we live our past life. So if you are bad,then there is a big chance that you will be reincarnated as a cockroach. 

*compensation 

Death is like a roadtrip. There will be stopovers. 

After reading all of these, a question may bother us. So what is going to happen to us when we die?q 

This is how God views the afterlife:

22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side.

Luke 16:22-23 

Death doesn't end everything. When we die, we will still live on. THERE IS A LIFE AFTER DEATH. THERE IS AFTERLIFE. 

We are spiritual beings. This is the reason why we will still go on after our life here on Earth is finished. It doesn't matter if you are rich poor,good or bad, we are all going to live after we die. 

THERE ARE ONLY 2 DESTINATIONS IN THE AFTERLIFE. 

Contrary to what our traditional religion teaches us,we only have 2 destinations when we die. There is NO option. When we die, we are either going to heaven or hell. 

This gives way to a fresh batch of questions.:

1. Are ghosts real? 

Ghosts are spiritual beings. Those spiritual beings are the angels and demons. They are our guardians here on earth. So ghosts are not real, they are the evil spirits sent to deceive us.

2. Are ghosts the spirit of our dead relatives? 

In Hebrews 9:27, it says:

27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,

We will just die ONCE then we will face judgment. Our dead relatives are already in heaven or hell. There is 0% chance that they are here,lingering on Earth. 

3. Will praying for my dead relatives do somethingz for their spiritual beings? 

Our traditional religion leads us to believe that we can do something for them. In reality, we cant there is a big chasm or gap between heaven and hell. Those who are suffering from the clutches of the Enemy CANNOT go to heaven and vice-versa. 

WHEN WE DIE, OUR ETERNAL DESTINIES ARE SEALED,SECURE IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE 

We still have time to change and follow the right thing. There is a way to be saved from the eternal suffering in hell. 

Do you want to know the solution? 

God gave us the solution 2000 years ago. 

JESUS CHRIST IS THE WAY FOR US TO BE SAVED FROM HELL. 

So what are you waiting for? Talk to God and asked Him for forgiveness. 

Remember this: If you take slow steps towards God,then God will hurriedly run towards you.
