The word for today is - Forever !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Forever !
The bible does not teach that humans will live forever here on earth. Forever is mentioned 290 times in the Bible. We should know that no one can live forever in this world.So, the question is where can we live forever? There is two places, Heaven and hell. Now Jesus answered an said, “My kingdom is not of this world," read John 18:36,Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from here. God's kingdom is not a earthly kingdom, it is not of the same nature as earthly kingdoms. It was not originated for the same purpose, or conducted on the same plan. God's kingdom is supernatural, purely spiritual and divine.The people of this world are carnal minded, thinking about living here on earth forever, let us not be foolish, by worldly wisdom. Carnal minded people can not submit to God's ways, they walk by the flesh mind set, read Romans 8:5-7, For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.The word of God says, if you need wisdom you should ask, read James 1:5, If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally, and reproaches not; and it shall be given him. God's wisdom enables us to understand the purpose for life and death. When your away from God's presence there is nothing but darkness around you. Without the grace of God, and righteousness of Jesus Christ eternal darkness will overtake you, read Matthew 22:13, Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Now, let us get some understanding about hell, it is a place of everlasting destruction, a place of conscious punishment forever. Read 2 Thessalonians 1:8-10, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. It is a place for the rich and the poor, a place for any and everyone that has turn away from God. Heavenly Father , I go before you at the throne of Grace. Help your people to turn back to you, before they fall into the bottomless pit. Everyone wonders what eternal life will be like? Let us be like Paul who looked forward to the time he could leave this earthly life behind and be with you, Our Lord and Savior! Amen ! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
