THE VOICE OF BETHEL WHERE,DO WE GO FROM HERE And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. Heb. 9:27. This text answers a question which should cause each one considerable concern. We are not placed here forever, nor are we certain of what tomorrow may. bring...__ God's Word likens our life on earth to "A vapour that ap- peareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." James 4:14. It is unreasonable for any one to justify the gross indif- ference that prevails to these warnings from God's Word. The business of Satan is to influence people to neglect their eternal welfare. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people. The Lake of Fire has been prepared for the devil and his angels: In Revelation 20:15 we are clearly told that every keerson whose name is nit found written in the Book of Life is cast into the Lake of Fire. Those who go the broad way must receive its penalty. Preparation to meet God is an individual responsibil- ity. God has ordained that each one who comes to Him as a sinner and seeks pardon can be cleansed from his sin, trans- formed from a sinner to a Christian, and given an assurance that all is well for eternity. Noah was scoffed at by the majority but it was proven he was right after all. It was tragic for those who wakened too late to accept salvation. - It matters not what man says or thinks, it is what God declares that matters.
