POEMS
ABOUT ETERNITY
ARE
YOU READY?
Are you ready
for the coming of the Lord?
Are you really grounded in His living Word?
He’s able to keep what you commit to
Him,
Not like all the cults, that follow ev’ry
whim.
Do you know
for certain that you are saved?
Or, do you follow Satan, and are depraved?
Will you be ready on that day He does come?
Or will you continue, away from Him to roam?
Are you grounded
in the power of your faith?
Are you ready for that fateful day of death?
Our time here on Earth is so very short,
Are you letting Satan Heav’nly life
abort?
Time is uncertain;
like vapour in the air,
We’re here a while; then gone: do you
know where?
Do you know the ‘place’ where
forever you’ll dwell?
Let me ask you this: is it Heaven, or Hell?
Are you ready
to meet the Almighty God?
All will stand before Him, the world abroad.
God has made ‘a’ plan to save
your very soul,
Accept His plan, Jesus; you’re on Heaven’s
roll!
Change your
destination, if you’re on the wrong
path,
Just trust in Jesus, will keep you from God’s
wrath.
Believe God; trust Jesus; let Him take control,
And you will be ready, when He comes for your
soul.

LEFT
BEHIND
When you were
young, playing with your friends,
Did they run off and leave, and you offend?
It happen’d to me, and it worried my
mind,
To be happy at play, then left behind!
There’s
a day coming, and not far away,
Jesus will come, in the clouds on that day.
He’ll descend from Heaven, with a great
shout,
Calling all God’s children, from here
and about.
In a moment;
a twinkling of an eye,
He’ll come and take us with Him, in
the sky!
He’s just coming, God’s children
to find,
What about you, will you be left behind?
No one knows
the hour, or day, He will come,
Not ev’n the angels; just God, in His
Home!
No warning! but as a thief in the night,
Christ shall come in the clouds; O’
what a sight!
Two men shall
be working, out in the field,
But lo, just one of them, to Christ shall
yield!
The other, a good man, moral and kind,
Would not accept Christ; so was left behind!
Just one simple
question, I’d ask of you,
When Christ was presented, what did you do?
There’s just one way, you can go on
this trip,
Trust Christ to save you, let me give you
this tip.
Jesus is the
“Way, the Truth, and the Life,”
Without Him, eternity will be the worst strife!
Trust Christ to save you; He’s loving
and kind,
If you don’t, I’ll warn you; you’ll
be left behind!

Scripture
verses for above poem:
(1 Thes.4:14-18; 5:2-11; 1 Co.15:51-58; Mt.24:36-44;
Jn.3:15-18,36; 5:24; 8:24; 14:6)
A
MOMENT AFTER YOU DIE
All those that
you love will so weep when you go,
Your dear ones will sure miss you, and rightly
so.
The teary faces that mourn, you will not see,
A moment after you die, where will you be?
All the voices
around simply won't reach you,
And the grief that they bear, you will not
construe.
You have a soul, do you know where it will
go
A moment after you die, Heav'n OR below ?
In your life,
earthly treasures did you reap?
Not looking ahead when your body would sleep?
Consider eternity, looming ahead,
It will be too late when your body is dead!
You shall reap
what you sow, there's no turning back,
Did you choose your goal, are you on the right
track ?
There's two places; Hell below, Heav'n in
the sky,
Where will you be, a moment after you die
?
Did you ever
feel a sharp tug at your heart ?
Yet stifle that feeling,and from it depart
?
O, this is God, simply trying to reach you,
A moment after you die, He won't rescue.
Eternity is
l-o-n-g,consider this fact,
I really pray that you, Heaven will attract.
But if you don't listen to God's Holy Word,
A moment after you die, Heav'n is barred.
Don't let Christ
pass you by; He can save your soul,
Just trust and accept Him,He will take control.
And you won't have to worry ever again,
For the moment you die,with Him you'll remain!

HELL
WON’T BE LIKE THIS
As you walk
in your garden, in early day,
With the wonders of nature, along the way.
The grass so green, and lovely flowers so
bright,
And birds singing their songs, in the sky
so light.
O, please consider
what I have to say,
Hell won’t be like this, on any giv’n
day.
NONE of these precious things will ever be
there,
Only darkness and agony, and despair.
The beautiful
roses, so much you do love,
Red ones, yellow and pink; all from God above.
Their wonderful fragrance, does so fill the
air,
Of these priceless treasures, nothing can
compare.
Again, I beg
you, hearken to the words I say,
Hell WON’T be like this, in any of these
ways.
The fires of God’s judgment, burn forever
more,
And there is NO escape for you; NOT one door!
Friendship
and love you have for fam’ly and friends,
A warm glowing feeling, seems to have no end.
The comfort, peace and joy, you have in your
home,
Pleasures unnumbered, from God they do come.
O, please listen
carefully to what I say,
HELL WON’T BE LIKE THIS, I pray, you
I can sway!
Please turn to Jesus, accept God’s only
Plan,
You do have a choice, and from Hell, you’ll
be bann’d.

THE
CLOCK
The clock keeps
ticking, time slithers away,
We have no control, to make the clock stay!
The control is in the Hand of our God,
Not only here, but the world abroad!
We each have
allotted time on our clock,
Each one different; God we should not mock.
No one does know when our time will be thru’,
If you think you can change it; you misconstrue!
When our time
runs out, and our clock does quit,
What will happen to your soul, your spirit?
It does not die, as Satan’s children
say,
The soul lives forever; it lives alway!
There are two
destinations; Heav’n and Hell,
You are destined for one; where you’ll
dwell.
Heav’n is only for those who trust God’s
Son,
Hell is for the millions, who reject in fun.
The clock keeps
ticking, time just rushes by,
You must make preparations, ‘fore you
die!
Once your body dies; it will be too late,
My friend, choose the right road, please do
not wait!

ETERNAL
LIFE
Eternal life;
what does it entail?
‘Tis endless life, that will never fail.
But friend, it means so much more than this,
It’s life in Heaven; it’s total
bliss.
A Promise fulfilled,
it does mean,
No man, nor Satan, can come between.
‘Tis ours, the moment we do believe,
When we trust Christ to save us, and Him receive.
Christ promised
life, abundantly,
We can claim this Promise, victoriously.
A full meaningful life, in His will,
Spirit controlled, with hope to instill.
This ‘life’
is yours, when you do believe,
It starts on Earth, ‘till Heav’n
we receive.
Only thru’ Christ, can you have this
‘life’,
Without Christ, sin and evil are rife.
Life in Heav’n
is coming, soon I know,
No tears, pain nor suffering, no woe.
Only the joy of serving our Lord,
Loving Him always; that won’t be hard.
I praise my
dear Saviour, ev’ry day,
Eternal life is mine, for alway!
The joy and peace He puts in my heart,
And the hope of Heav’n, will ne’er
depart.

IN
LIGHT OF ETERNITY
Let me live
with eternity in mind,
To lost souls, don’t let me be blind.
Dear Lord, grant me love, and compassion too,
Grant me boldness, and ‘words’
to bring them to you.
Lord, I don’t
think enough ‘bout eternity,
And all the lost ones, in Hell’s agony.
Grant me more love, that the Gospel I’ll
share,
Exchange this hard heart, for one that does
care.
Hell is a ‘place’
where ALL lost souls will go,
And forever, have nothing but sorrow.
Unending thirst, and eternal darkness,
Let me tell them of Christ; let me witness.
Let me have
concern for all the lost souls,
Lord, let bringing the Gospel, be my goal.
Let me live in light of eternity,
Lord, grant me compassion, and mercy.
In light of
eternity, let me live,
That the Good News of Jesus, I might give!
Let me show more love, from a tender heart
true,
Please give me ‘words’ that might
bring them to you!
Don’t
let me be selfish with your great love,
Let me tell them ‘bout blissful Heav’n
above!
Let me live in light of eternity,
Let me tell of ‘Salvation’, a
GIFT so free!

LIFE
BEYOND THE GRAVE
There is life
beyond the grave; indeed,
So the Gospel of Christ we must heed.
Trust Jesus as your Saviour today,
Only with Him will you go the right way!
For certain,
there’s life beyond the grave,
List’ to the Gospel; be bold and brave.
To access God, you must go thru’ His
Son,
Or the gates of Heaven can’t be won!
Beyond the
grave, there’s eternity,
All souls are eternal; both you and me.
There’s two destinations, where we could
go,
To blissful Heaven, OR Hell below!
As we on this
Earth, our lives do live,
A free will; our gracious God does give.
He will not force us, to go His way,
He gives us freedom, to decide each day!
Accept OR reject
Jesus, God’s Son,
This decision is an eternal one.
Only Christ, your soul from Hell can save,
For friend, there IS life, beyond the grave.

CAN
YOU IMAGINE??
Can you imagine
that place called Hell?
Where ALL unbelievers one day will dwell.
Not any light, and darkness so deep,
No rest for the weary, not any sleep.
Can you imagine
that awful place?
Residents there shall never see God’s
Face.
Everything good and pure are no more,
Never a hope to see Heaven’s shore.
Can you imagine
the agony?
Eternal destruction, for eternity!
Unquenchable thirst, and horrid screams,
A hundred times worse than your worst dreams.
Can you imagine
that putrid smell?
The fire and brimstone, nothing shall quell!
All this goes on for eternity,
With nary a glimmer of serenity.
Many seem to
think Hell is make-believe,
And that pain and sorrow they’ll not
receive.
But God plainly tells most are on Hell’s
road,
That place of misery will be their abode.
You can change
roads today; it’s not too late,
So the gates of Heaven will be your fate.
But you must trust Christ, He holds the ‘key,’
Reject Him and it’s Hell, for eternity!
