2) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Purgatory is a lie, false teachings, to see.
Only Hell or Heaven, not Nirvana, or soul sleep.
Your judgment before The Lord; appointment you will keep.
3) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Your righteousness before The Lord; all as rags, filthy.
God's Standard is Perfection there, and none on Earth can pay.
Except for Christ, Messiah, Lord; Heaven's Only Way.
4) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
The Plan Of Salvation there, full of simplicity.
Believe on The Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved.
God In The Flesh, He lived and died, and rose up from the grave.
5) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
The Cross and Tomb have this in common; they are both, empty.
One is saved by Grace Through Faith; not of works, to boast.
If you choose to reject Christ, you will regret it most.
6) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
One day, all bow before Christ, there on bended knee.
God does not grade on the curve, but grades on The Cross.
For Christ freely shed His Blood, to redeem the lost.
7) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
On Judgment Day, all that you did, there for all to see.
No guilt question, pardon, mercy, or even appeal.
Done in open, or in secret; all will be revealed.
8) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Whether you are old or young; eventuality.
Saved souls at the rapture, alive; shoot up toward the sky.
These will eneter Heaven first; without the need to die.
9) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
To much of mankind, Gospel Truth, it is stupidity.
But, to all the saved, it is the Power of The Lord.
For His Word is sharper than any two edged sword.
10) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Our possessions, life on Earth, not permanent, you see.
Only deeds done for The Lord, will forever, last.
All the rest, destroyed in flames; and forever, past.
11) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
At Bema Seat, were deeds for Christ, and for His Glory??
If so, one may there be blessed, to receive a crown.
Christ alone deserves all praise; to Him, the crowns, laid down.
12) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
But, those at The Great White Throne; too late for mercy.
If one did not on Christ, believe; the one thing God required;
They will spend eternity, in The Lake Of Fire.
13) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Church membership, good deeds, are not, good enough, you see.
If going through the motions, and lip service to Christ's Name;
Was all you did; on Judgment Day, you will be ashamed.
14) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Part of the curse of sin on Earth; in law of entropy.
One day, both Hell and Death there, cast to The Lake Of Fire.
With Satan's hordes, and all unsaved, wanting sin's desire.
15) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Whether you die once or twice, it's your choice, chearly.
Dying once is for all, when Earthly life does end.
Dying twice if your refused, Christ, as Savior, Friend.
16) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Time left in your life, you don't know, how much there will be.
Tomorrow promised to no one, you could die today.
After death, belief too late; and the chance to pray.
17) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Once eternity is crossed, you've set your destiny.
Only Hell or Heaven, there; full torment, or bliss.
No second chance there after death; if Heaven, you have missed.
18) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Christ asks each soul lovingly, ''Do You Have Time For Me??''.
God wants none to die in sin; but all to repent.
For the one thing God requires: ''Believe On Christ, He Sent''.
19) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
At least one chance is given there; the Gospel Truth, to see.
Yet, God is a Gentleman; He won't force you to choose.
Salvation is His Free Gift; to Gentiles and the Jews.
20) Death, it is the start of every soul's eternity.
Everyone must make that choice, individually.
Whether you are young or old; as adult or youth;
What is your response today, to the Gospel Truth??
