GOD'S KINGDOM OF LIGHT
OR
SATAN'S KINGDOM OF DARKNESS
Will we serve God, or will we serve Satan - either through allegiance to the enemy, or through succumbing to his lies and the enticements of the flesh and forfeiting our relationship with God?
To whom will you give your allegiance? A loving God or a hateful devil?
Of course all Satan worshippers would say a hateful devil since the devil has so nicely placed wool over their eyes and ears, so they may no longer receive the truth, and when they do hear the truth, they blaspheme against it.
But for those are you who have not yet made a choice, or who are currently serving the wrong god or gods, consider this.
Would you like to spend your eternity (and don't fool yourselves, there IS life after death! and no there is no such thing as reincarnation!) living an abundant life with your loving Creator or suffering terrible punishment along with the enemy (Satan).
"Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve" - Joshua 24:15 (NKJV)
"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other" - Matthew 6:24 (NKJV)
"Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve" - Joshua 24:15 (NKJV)
"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other" - Matthew 6:24 (NKJV)
Whom are you currently serving? What is your "god"? Is it money, sex, addiction, your job, or even your family? Whatever is capable of occupying your attention and loyalty more that God ultimately becomes your god. Satan then uses these things to keep you from hearing the Word of God and to steer you further into the depths of hell. The devil knows that if he can clog your mind with the cares of this world, then you are less able to discern spiritual matters and more inclined to give in to the constant tug of the fleshly nature. This is why the Word of God instructs us concerning what to keep our minds focused on at all times.
8Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think of these things. - Philippians 4:8 (NKJV)

He testified how, although his body was dead for three days, his spirit was very much alert. In hell, the truth concerning the plight of those who worship idols and false gods, and who reject Jesus Christ, was revealed to him. He was astonished to see many of the great teachers of old there, who had been condemned to hell because of their unbelief and false doctrines. The monk was allowed to come back to life, and when he awoke in his coffin - much to the astonishment of those attending his funeral - and gave his testimony, many still did not believe.
God does not force His love on us, but He sets before us two options:
LIFE
OR
DEATH
He allows us to make the choice for ourselves and does not force His Will upon us.
18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. - John 3:18 (NKJV)
18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. - John 3:18 (NKJV)
I admonish you to choose life so that the blessings of God will not only be upon you, but also upon your descendants.
