Destination Known - One Man


John 1:12,13 "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, but of the will of God."



In the course of three weeks two remarkable men died. Both were at the top of their study field. Both were loved and respected the world over. 
One man studied the universe.
One man studied the Creator of the universe.

One man died believing this life to be the end all, neither heaven nor hell to be his destination.
One man died knowing that this life was only the beginning, that heaven and hell are real, and that in the end, only heaven will remain; for death and hell have their own destination. 

One man died denying God. One man died praising God. One man died in his sins. One man took his last breath in this life and his first in his new body, which God had prepared for him. 

One man can make a difference in another man's life. One man did not follow Jesus Christ; the other man did, and is with Him even now. Which man are you going to follow? 

(I would just like to add, that, as my husband pointed out, Hawking's discovery that the earth was created out of a black hole did not disprove the existence, but the opposite. For The Word of God tells us in Genesis 1:1-2, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And The Spirit of God moved upon the waters." Literally, this earth was in darkness; it was shapeless (without form); and void (nothingness). This earth was created out of nothing. And that's what a black hole is: nothing.
In Hawking's unbelief, he thought he was right. But we know he was wrong. And, now, for all eternity, he will pay that price of unbelief.)
