What Happens one Minute After Someone Dies?
1. Our Physical Body Dies
2. Our Soul Separates from our Physical Body

“One minute after you slip behind the parted curtain, you will either be enjoying a personal welcome from Christ, or be catching your first glimpse of gloom as you have never known it. Either way, your further will be irrevocably fixed and eternally unchangeable.” –Pastor Erwin Lutzer

The Glory of Heaven
72% of Americans believe you go to heaven when you have lived a good life

  • Good people don’t go to heaven.
  • Forgive people go to heaven!

WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT ETERNITY DETERMINES HOW YOU LIVE TODAY.

WHY DOES HELL EXIST?
1. Hell exist for God to deal righteously with Satan.
2. Hell exists for God to deal righteously with unbelievers.

FOUR LESSONS FROM THE OTHER SIDE
1. The rich man in hell was fully conscious and aware.
2. The rich man’s eternal destiny was irrevocably fixed.
3. The rich man knew that his suffering was just/fair.
4. The rich man begged and pleaded for someone to help his brothers know Jesus.

WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT ETERNITY DETERMINES

WHETHER OR NOT YOU WILL TAKE THE GREAT COMMISSION SERIOUSLY.
