Why don't you prepare for eternity today?After all none of us has the power to prevent the day of our death!

Answer 1

Here is how!
Jesus Christ is the only true and living God!

The God of The Holy Bible is the only true and living God. In the Old Testament times of The Holy Bible God was known as Jehovah God. According to Clarence Larkin in his book, Dispensational Truth, 1920, page 47, Published by Larkin's estate, God went by seven “Jehovah God” names:

“1. JEHOVAH-JIRESH-”The Lord will provide.” Genesis 22:13-14 That is, provide a sacrifice. 2. JEHOVAH-RAPHA-”The Lord that healeth.” Exodus 15:26. 3. JEHOVAH-NISSI-“The Lord our Banner.” Exodus 17:8-15. 4. JEHOVAH-SHALOM-”The Lord our peace.” Judges 6:23-24. 5. JEHOVAH—RA-AH-”The Lord my Shepherd.” Psalms 23. 6. JEHOVAH-TSIDKENU-”The lord our righteousness.” Jeremiah 3:6. 7. JEHOVAH-SHAMMAH-“The Lord is present.” Exodus 48:35. It is only as we know the meaning of the different titles of God that we can understand their significance. The word for Christ as “Creator” is “ELOHIM,” for Christ as “revealer and Redeemer” is JEHOVAH (translated Lord).”

In the New Testament Jehovah God is revealed to be a Trinity-God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God The Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19: “Go ye, therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing then in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” Today Christians worship Jehovah God in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ. (Most Jews still worship God as Jehovah God.) Jesus Christ, Jehovah God in the Old Testament, came to the Jews as their Messiah during New Testament times but most of them rejected Him. Christians know that Jesus Christ is the only true and living God. Christians know that the word “Lord” for Jesus Christ means Jehovah God.

John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me.”

Jesus Christ Christ is the only way to God the Father and to heaven. There is no other way to get to heaven. There is no other true and living God.
All other so-called gods are false gods. They are not real . They do not exist. They are actually Satan or his demons disguised as gods. From the beginning Satan wanted to be as God. In order to to capture the souls/spirits of the masses he now does the best he can to be God by being a god to as many as he can be by appearing to be a god in different forms to different groups of people. The more false gods he can create the more souls/spirits he can capture for himself and take them to hell to be with him forever in eternity. All false religions who worship false gods were created by Satan. Allah for the Muslims. Confucius for the Chinese. Buddha for the Buddhists. ETC.

Christians know Jesus Christ as the Son of God who was sent to earth by God the Father to become a man to die for the sins of the whole world. Christians know Jesus Christ is the only true and living Lord God. (Romans 10:9-10 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus {that Jesus is Lord} and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believed unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”) Christians know that the blood that Jesus Christ shed at Calvary is the only thing that can forgive, remove and cleanse them from all their sins. Christians know that they must repent of (turn from) their sins to Christ. (Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” and Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”) Christians know that they must ask Jesus Christ to come into their heart/lives to live there forever. (John l:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he the power to come sons {children} of God, even to them that believe on his name.”) Christians know they must give up their sins and live in obedience to Jesus Christ the rest of their lives. Christians know that when they die they will go to heaven to be with Jesus Christ forever. Christians know that all of this is a life lived by faith. Is all this true of you? Are you a Christian? If not, why not become one today.
The Holy Bible in Hebrews 11:6 says “But without faith it is impossible to please him (God); for he that cometh to God must believe (have faith) that he (God) is, and that he (God) is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (God).” Parentheses mine!
By faith, acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the only true and living God. By faith, acknowledge you are a sinner in need of the forgiveness that Jesus Christ offers. By faith, turn from all your sins to Jesus Christ and ask Him to come into your heart/life to live there forever. By faith, give your heart/life to Jesus Christ to live for Him the rest of your life. All of this is what is meant when the Lord Jesus Christ said: “Jesus answered, and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God (go to heaven).” You were born physically into your earthly family. To go to heaven you must be born again spiritually into your heavenly family, God's spiritual family.
Salvation is a free gift. You cannot work for it. You cannot be good enough to earn it. You must, by faith, receive it as a free gift. (“8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.”) Ephesians 2:8-9. If you never have, do it today. This is my prayer for you.

Answer 2

How can you prepare for all of eternity in one day? And what preparing is there? You don't need clothes in Hell!

Seriously, come on. You're right, we can't prevent it. So instead of wasting our time preparing for some hypothetical eternal life, we should live this one to the fullest.

Answer 3

Some of us look forward to death. If I died right now- from a selfish standpoint I would be abandoning my Wife and my Mom. From the physical standpoint? My body aches, I'm old, mostly blind and very tired. My teeth are rotting out, and I have arthritis in both knees, ankles, elbows and shoulders.

I spend 4 hours or so a day in prayer, and I do try to read the Bible every day. I just pray for a quick and fast painless death.

Answer 4

I AM preparing for eternity, by declaring the lack of evidence for the biblegod's existence! Check out this essay by Richard Carrier: "The End of Pascal's Wager: Only Nontheists Go To Heaven"....

Answer 5

There's no such thing as eternity. When you're gone, you're gone. End of story.

But, since it seems to make religious freaks sleep better, go ahead and worry, pray, preach, waste time, bug others, read your silly little book, knock on doors, tell people like me I'm wrong and am going to burn, and maybe you can relax a little.

Answer 6

I've been ready to die for years. I'm already living on borrowed time. I was supposed to be dead at least 9 months ago, according to doctors. And, NO, I didn't pray to live longer. I just decided that I'm not ready to die yet.

Answer 7

I prepared for eternity more than thirty years ago and i am still ready whenever it is my time to go (that is not to say that i don;t see each day as a gift from god and enjoy my life as it is)

Answer 8

Why should I prepare for something inevitable? It's going to happen no matter what I do.

Answer 9

As a fellow christian i am annoyed by your type of people who seem the need to push salvation on everybody. It's falling on death ears, cut it out everyone is sick of hearing it. People will either believe in god or not but you cant push it down their throats

Answer 10

Good point. Even if you aren't convinced of the after life, isn't it better to be safe than sorry?

For those searching for the Truth, people and institutions of people just don't have it. There is one Truth, one way and one Life. Go there. Then you will find Truth.

Answer 11

I am preparing vor eternity. By searching for the truth, which I have not found in Christianity or any other religion yet.
