Dedicated To The Men of God Who Preach the Word of God As It
Is To Men As They Are
"Preach The Word"
"LORD, MAKE ME TO KNOW MY END"
Text: Psalm 39:4
Introduction:
This is a good prayer for all of us to pray.
God wants us to consider our end — Deuteronomy 32:29.
It is a wise person who considers where he will be in
eternity and prepares for it. God says in His Word: "Prepare
to meet thy God" ( Amos 4:12).
I. THIS IS THE END OF THE SAVED PERSON.
A. He goes to be with Christ — Philippians 1:21, 23; II
Corinthians 5:1-8.
B. He gets a new body at the first resurrection — I Thessalonians
4:16-18; Philippians 3:20, 21; I Corinthians 15:51-57.
C. He rules with Christ for 1,000 years — Revelation 20:
4-6.
D. He lives forever with the • Lord and His people — I
Thessalonians 4:17; Revelation 21:3, 4; Revelation 22:1-5.
II. THIS IS THE END OF THE UNSAVED PERSON.
A. He goes to hades — Luke 16:19-31.
B. He gets a body at the resurrection of the unjust — Revelation
20:11, 12; Acts 24:15.
C. He will be judged at the Great White Throne Judgment
— Revelation 20:11-13.
D. He will be cast into hell forever — Revelation 21:14, 15.
Conclusion:
Consider your end — what will it be? Thank God it is possible
to say, "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last
end be like his" (Numbers 23:10). The righteous person is the
person who has received Jesus Christ as his personal Lord
and Saviour (II Corinthians 5:21). Have you received Him?
If not, will you do so now? ( John 1:12).
