Heaven or Hades

I have been reading a book that I actually should just through in the trash, but I keep thinking this guy will explain why he feels like he does. The book is about heaven and hell. This book is full of questions people ask  about the topic and I keep waiting for clear answers. Well yesterday a friend of mine posted a quote about hell that said, 2 out of every 5 Americans do not believe in a literal place called hell, Scary right. 

Well I got to reading some of what my bible tells me, and not in a lot of places but enough to describe to me that it is real and I don't want to go there. To me it's kind of simple there is a scary torturous place and a lovely loving place and we choose which one to live in eternally. 

I've heard people say " God is a loving God He wouldn't send me to hell" , well guess what He doesn't  you send yourself by not making the right choice in your life. We think we have all the time in the world to live like the devil and still be able to go to heaven. If this was true, why do we have churches and christian people who try their best to live according to Gods word. We wouldn't have to worry about right or wrong, we could just whatever because it would all be ok. This really is scary.

I do believe most people believe there is a God, they call on Him when they are in trouble, but they forget that they need Him in the heart, a true relationship , not just a when you need Him one. I know those who say they believe and I know they do, but they are not saved. They want to live life just having fun, partying and not taking time for God. How can a person say they know God and live as if there is not a God? Well those of us who have chosen to live the best we can for our Lord, know what's coming in the end. Those who don't believe will find their eternity when they meet God face to face. 

I was saved by hearing scripture in revelations that scared me, I didn't want anything to do with burning and having things crawling on me. That's what it took for me to find God and I know His love. The devil is real and he has a brutal home awaiting those who " choose" their own way, who want to live life without God in it. 

The rich man was in torment in hades and wanted a drop of water. Hmm this is in the word, I believe the word, hades is real. Maybe hell fire and brimstone needs to be heard again but then again this world is filled with scary things and people don't seem to mind.

Heaven is the home I look forward to being one day. Through all I've went through and seen, I'd rather believe there's a real glorious loving splendid place I can be one day. IF I'm wrong at least I lived my life in a way that didn't tear people up or cause failure, this seems so much better then drinking my life away and arguing over things that don't matter, and hurting those I love.

If you believe in God, believe there is a heaven and a hell and one day we will see one of them personally.
