life and death

Do you understand that if you are saved you will go to heaven when you die? Yet the Bible teachers assure you that eternal life is available now. Do you see how both of these can be true? For the Bible teaches you to lay down your life and die to yourself that you may follow me. Have you read these passages and considered them a fearful burden? I want you to see them in a positive light. It is true that death and eternity are connected, but you don’t have to wait until the end of your life to experience either one. If you are willing to apply these passages you can have eternal life now if you die now.
