Beyond The Grave

During his burial
He kept trying to communicate to someone but none could see him
He tried to find out what happened to him but none could hear him
His loved ones could only cry on the day he was buried
He couldn’t continue the journey with them as they were in a different environment


He didn’t know tomorrow will start without him
It all happened so soon
He could only see the eyes of loved ones filled with tears for him
While thinking of the many words they couldn’t get to say
His hope now is, an angel will call his name and take his hand
Just to say “your place is ready in heaven far above”


As he turned and walked away a tear fell from his eye
For all his life he had always thought he wouldn’t die anytime soon
He had so much to live for and so much left to do
He wish he could re-live yesterday to say goodbye, smile to loved ones, kiss them goodbye and prepare for heaven
But this could never be


He wish God will hold his hand just to say, welcome my son, this is the place I prepared for you, let me show you your mansion
People die every second
Death is ever present with us
Where did the departed souls go?
Can anyone tell me where our ancestors are?


When you enter the mortuary, the place is filled with stench of death!
Naked bodies of men, women and children
Rich and poor lay side by side
All pride and dignity forgotten in this helpless state
All is vanity
It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this, the judgment


Hell is a place where their worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched
The only song sang in hell is the groaning, weeping and gnashing of teeth
When I look up I see more to life than marriage, money and retirement
When death lays its icy hands on your body and you are not saved, a demon
with a foul smell will welcome you with an ugly smile and force you down
through darkness to the unbearable heat


How sad it will be to get there and realize is real
Only to cry for help that will never come
When a person lives as one who is influential and is not saved and dies, those
who admired him on earth will look and say “art thou also become like us?”
Hell hath enlarged herself and opened her mouth without measure
And in hell …… being in torment he cried ……. Luke 16:23, 24
There is no joy in hell


Conclusion
Hell is a permanent situation!
Once you get there, there is no room of return
But there is good news!
Jesus said “except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God”
John 3:3
Meaning when one is born again, he can see the kingdom of God
To be born again is not physical birth
Is a spiritual birth
One must accept Jesus Christ as the personal Savior

  23. You have made some good points there. I looked
    on the internet for more info about the issue and found most people will
    go along with your views on this site. I’ve been browsing online more than 4 hours
    today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a
    lot more useful than ever before. Hello, i read your blog from
    time to time and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get
    a lot of spam comments? If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you
    can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any assistance
    is very much appreciated. http://Foxnews.net/

  35. I don’t know whether it’s just me or if everyone else experiencing problems with your blog. It appears like some of the text within your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them too? This could be a problem with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen previously. Appreciate it|

  36. When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get several e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Cheers!|
