Decided where to spend eternity, Heaven or hell?

The answer to that question is found in repentance, and the way to know if you need to repent is to look at the Ten Commandments: they show us how far we fall short: Is God first in your life? Do you love Him with "heart, mind,
soul and strength?" Have you made a god to suit yourself? Have you used His name in vain? Have you kept the Sabbath holy? Have you always honoured your parents? Have you hated anyone, and therefore committed murder in your heart? Have you looked with lust and therefore committed adultery in your heart? Have you lied (including "fibs"), stolen (the value is irrelevant),
or coveted other people's possessions? If you are honest, you know you will be guilty on the Day of Judgement, and spend eternity in hell.

That's not God's will. He has provided a way for you to be forgiven, but you must obey Him before you die. God sent His Son to take your punishment: "God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." He was bruised for our iniquities. Jesus then rose from the dead and defeated death.

Therefore repent and be forgiven while you still have breath in your lungs,
for the Spirit of God shall not strive with man forever.. flee the wrath that is to come.

Regards
Michael
