| FIVE MINUTES AFTER I DIE |
| Loved ones will weep o'er my silent face, Dear ones will clasp me in sad embrace Shadows and darkness will fill the place, Five minutes after I die. Faces that sorrow I will not see, Voices that murmur will not reach me; But where, oh where will my spirit be? Five minutes after I die. Here I have rested and roved and ravaged; Here I have cherished and grown estranged There, and then, it will be changed- Five minutes after I die. Naught to repair the good I lack- Fixed to the goal of my chosen track, No room to repent, no turning back, Five minutes after I die. Now, I can stifle convictions stirred; Now, I can silence the Voice oft heard; Then fulfillment of God's sure Word, Five minutes after I die. Mated for aye with my chosen throng- Long is eternity-- O so long! Then woe is me if my soul be wrong Five minutes after I die. Oh what a fool! Hard the word but true; Passing the Saviour, with Hell in view, Doing a thing I can never undo- Five minutes after I die. If I am flinging a fortune away, If I am wasting salvation's day, "Just is my sentence", my soul shall say, Five minutes after I die. ~~~ Taken from an vintage tract by Pilgrim Tract Society ~~~ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Where will you spend eternity? While you are still alive, you still have a choice. Once you die, there are no second chances from the grave. Death is inevitable for all of us. Have you considered your eternal future? Do you know where you are going if you die tonight? Have you received Jesus Christ as your Savior? Are your sins forgiven? Are you trusting in Him to save you? There are ONLY TWO ETERNAL DESTINATIONS. You will spend eternity in either Heaven or in the Lake of Fire. Jesus loved each and every one of us so much that He died for our sins. God's Only Begotten Son died for us. He paid a high price to redeem us. Luke 19:10 says: "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." Whether you receive Jesus as your Savior or not determines your eternal destiny. Jesus said it very plainly in John 3:16-18: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He 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." Revelation 20:15 says: "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." Tomorrow is promised to no man! If you died tonight, where would you go? Do you know? Where will you spend eternity? The Gospel is GOOD NEWS! Jesus died for us so that our sins would be forgiven and so that we could spend eternity with Him forever. GOD LOVES YOU SO VERY MUCH!!
