Eternity Where?

What You Do With Jesus Determines Where You Spend Eternity

     The most important question for anyone is eternity where? What anyone does with Jesus determines where they will spend eternity. If you get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again, you spend eternity in peaceful heaven forever. If you reject Jesus, you spend eternity in hell and the lake of fire with the devil and his angels forever. There's no in between (purgatory) where someone can pay money or pray you out of purgatory to graduate to heaven. Purgatory is not in the bible and makes no sense; Someone once said if purgatory exists I sure wouldn't want to be the last one in purgatory with no one to pay or pray me out. 

     Don't wait to answer the most important question eternity where? Right now accept Jesus and be assured that you will spend eternity in peaceful heaven. Eternity is too long and hell is too hot. According to James 4:14 our life on this earth is only a vapour that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away and is followed by eternity in either heaven or hell (forever and ever and ever and ever). 2 Corinthians 6:2 says 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. 

     Notice the choice of heaven or hell for eternity pictured above. Trust Jesus and go to heaven; trust anything else and go to hell. Choose heaven with unimaginable joy, not hell a place of horror; choose heaven with only the faithful few, not hell with many wicked sinners; choose heaven a place of eternal bliss, not hell a place of unending torment; choose heaven with the obedient there, not hell with the devil and the disobedient there; choose heaven with no desire to escape, not hell with no way of escape; choose heaven that people can forfeit or gain, not hell a place to avoid. 

     Eternity where is the most important question for anyone on this earth. When we think about eternity where? (the following questions are meaningless). 1) Will the economy get better? 2) Will Putin start World War III? 3) Will Ohio State win another football game? 4) Will Kyrie get vaccinated? 5) Will Biden send help to Ukraine? 6) Will the Green New Deal happen? 7) Are we all going to have to convert to electric cars? These questions don't matter when we ask the question eternity where? If we cleaned up the whole world and everybody started flying on electric jets to stop pollution, ate organic food, never cut down a tree, and never killed an owl or frog, everyone's still going to leave this earth and spend eternity somewhere.

Decide Right Now Where You Will Spend Eternity

Choose Jesus And Live Forever In Peaceful Eternity

Eternity where? It floats in the air

Amid the clamor or silence; It ever is there

The question so solemn eternity where?

Eternity where? Oh Eternity where?

With the redeemed ones in glory or with the devil in despair

With one or the other; Eternity where?

Eternity where? It's well worth the care

O shall we; O can we venture to dare

O not until we settle the issue; Eternity where?

Eternity where? Oh Eternity where?

Friends sleep not nor take in the world any share

Till you answer the question eternity where?

With your soul is it well; Eternity where?

In heaven or hell

Eternity where?

Some Blessed Thoughts About Eternity

     Our first blessed thought about eternity is that the word eternity occurs only one time in the bible at Isaiah 57:15 that says For thus saith the high and lofty one that inhabiteth eternity whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit to revive the spirit of the humble and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Someone once asked with such a great subject as eternity, Why do you think God only put the word eternity in the bible once. Someone answered Because it's so big, there isn't enough room for another one. 

     Now notice that God inhabiteth and lives in eternity. Eternity is not limited by time. Psalm 90:4 says for a thousand years in thy sight (Lord Jesus) are but as yesterday when it is past and as a watch in the night. How comforting that according to 2 Corinthians 5:8 when saints leave this earth and are absent from the body, they are present with the Lord. Therefore saints like the Lord Jesus inhabit eternity whenever they leave their earthly bodies. According to time, saints receive their glorious glorified bodies at the rapture; but according to eternity, when a saint leaves his earthly body, he can move into eternity (instantly ahead untold number of years and immediately receive his glorified body).

     Here's some interesting thoughts about eternity. Rejoice and praise Jesus while you say John Newton's blessed words from Amazing Grace; When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the Son, we've no less days to sing God's praise then when we first begun. And what about the man that asked God in heaven's eternity, God what is time like in heaven? God replied a minute is like a million years and a million years is like a minute. Then the man asked God what is money like in heaven? God replied a penny is like a million dollars and a million dollars is like a penny. Then the man asked God Can you give me a penny? God replied in a minute. 

     Notice the words in the blessed picture above describing the length of eternity. Compared to this life on earth, the idea of forever praising Jesus in peaceful eternity brings great joy, peace, and strength. It's been said that if a single bird could take a single grain of sand and fly to heaven with it and do that once every thousand years until every grain of sand on every seashore of every ocean of planet earth; until all the sand was removed; Eternity would have just begun.

Be Like Peter, Paul, And John And Definitely Know 

That You Will Spend Eternity With Jesus In Peaceful Heaven

     Be like Peter, Paul, and John and definitely know that you will spend eternity with Jesus in peaceful heaven. Like Peter say 1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that fadeth not away reserved in heaven for you. Like Peter, after salvation you will get a witness and know that your salvation is eternally reserved in heaven for you. 

     Like Paul say 2 Timothy 1:12 For the which cause I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. Like Paul, after salvation you will get a witness and become persuaded that God will keep your salvation eternally for you in heaven. 

     Like John say 1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Like John, after salvation you will get a witness and definitely know that you have eternal life with our Lord Jesus. 

     Remember it's better to accept Jesus as your Lord and get saved than to die like an atheist who faces the everlasting torment of hell. Don't die like an atheist who rejects Jesus and fears hell. Before the infidel Hobbs died, he said I am about to take my last voyage, a great leap in the dark. Before the atheist Voltaire died, he said I'm abandoned by God and man; I shall die and go to hell. Before another unknown french atheist died, he said Hell is a refuge that hides me from God's frown. Jude 13 describes these atheists that reject Jesus as raging waves of shame foaming out their own shame, wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. According to Matthew 25:41 these atheists that rejected Jesus will hear Jesus say at the judgment of the nations Depart from me ye cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels. They will learn that according to Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. 

     Right now answer the most important question on this earth that is Eternity where? Take heed to the warning from Matthew 6:19; Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth where moth and rust doth corrupt and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven (give to the poor according to Mark 10:21) where neither moth nor rust corrupt and where thieves do not break through nor steal. Choose to accept Jesus as your Lord and receive eternal peace. 

Eternity Where?

Choose To Dwell With The Lord Jesus

The I AM That Inhabiteth Eternity With Peace

     Choose to accept and dwell with the Lord Jesus called the I AM that inhabiteth eternity with peace. The Jews said to Jesus at John 8:57 Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM. Jesus is the I AM THAT I AM God who appeared to Moses in the burning bush at Exodus 3:13. The I AM Lord Jesus was not I was or I shall be. Jesus is the I AM God who ten million years ago was called I AM and a million or a billion years from now will forever be called the I AM God who inhabiteth eternity. The Lord Jesus is from everlasting to everlasting. The Lord Jesus always has been and always will be. Jesus proclaimed at Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty God. 

     Choose the Lord Jesus and inhabit peaceful eternity in heaven. You will be with Jesus and His seven blessed I AM's pictured above. How comforting that at John 6:35 Jesus said I AM the bread of life; at John 11:25 Jesus said I AM the resurrection and the life; at John 10:11 Jesus said I AM the good shepherd; at John 14:6 Jesus said I AM the way, the truth, and the life; at John 8:12 Jesus said I AM the light of the world; at John 15:1 Jesus said I AM the true vine; and at John 10:7 Jesus said I AM the door of the sheep.

     Remember it's very important to make a decision about the question Eternity where? One billion years from now everyone that ever lived on this earth is going to be alive somewhere (either in heaven or in hell). Every person will spend eternity somewhere. Therefore take heed to the wise instruction from Bob Jones Sr. who said I have to live forever somewhere so I better figure out how to live. I better figure out where I'm going to live in eternity. 

Read Another Blessed Poem About Eternity

Choose Jesus And Live Forever In Peaceful Eternity

Eternity stupendous theme; compared with our life is like a dream

Eternity how awful the sound; O deep where our thoughts are drowned

But an eternity there is; a dreadful woe or an eternal bliss

And swift as time fulfills its round; We to eternity are bound

What countless millions of mankind; have left this fleeting world behind

They're gone; But where? Oh stop and see; They're gone to a long eternity

And is eternity so near; and must we very soon be there

O sinner where wilt thou flee; or how will you avoid eternity

Canst thou bear to dwell; in all the fiery deeps of hell

And is death nothing then to thee; death and a dreaded eternity

Ye gracious souls with joy look up; with Jesus you rejoice your glorious hope

This everlasting bliss secures; God and eternity will be yours

     If you're saved today, shout for joy. The saints will be with Jesus forever in a wonderful city in a glorious glorified body where they'll be no sickness, no trouble, no burdens, and no problems (Revelation 21:4); We'll be perfect and happy forever and ever and ever and ever and ever. This is eternity for the child of God. Nothing in this world is better than the glorious eternity with our Lord Jesus in heaven. Notice the wise words of 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 For our light affliction which is but for a moment worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
