8 aBe sober-minded; bbe watchful. Your cadversary the devil dprowls around elike a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
I Peter 5:8
I hope and pray with all of my heart that you do not believe the insinuation of this title of this posting ("that when you die, you just go away somewhere"), nor any of the other lies that Satan has perpetrated against the human race. Yes, it is a race- the most highly important race for Life and Death that you and I face. The devil is always the Liar, and Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, is our One and only Promise for Life eternal.
Jesus paid the price of sin for us, for each of us. God cannot have sin, for He is completely Holy, Pure, and Good. When Adam and Eve believed the first lie of the serpent, Satan, it began the great divide between God and us. God had told them that they could eat from all of the fruit in the Garden, all of the trees, except the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, for they would surely die. That was Truth, of course, because God cannot lie. He is Truth and Love.

John 3:17-18
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, shall not perish, but live Forever and Ever LIFE with Jesus and other believers in Heaven!
Read the Word of God, The Holy Bible. There is the absolute Truth about Heaven and Hell. Attend a good, genuine church of our Christian faith and stay if you like the people, the sermons, and ceremonies such as Communion. If need be, listen to a great church on the radio or on T.V.
Stay close with honest, trusted, and friendly Christians, perhaps in a small group.
You will grow in your faith!
The key to a bona fide Christ-believing church is that JESUS is the focus of the reason for being there. Make sure that you realize that you must tell the Lord in a prayer that you believe in Him as your Lord and Savior. That you plan to be in Heaven with Him one day. Pray for others for the same. Over time God will show you people in need of Salvation. You could invite them or others who have their Christian faith to join you at church, etc. A Good Church does good and helpful things in the church for people and for people in the community, perhaps people in far away countries, especially for food, drinkable water, the Word/The Bible. They need spiritual support and guidance. A Christian church and its people do aWorld of Good (the world good!) here on Earth through prayer; food for someone sick; giving rides for folks to church; helping a neighbor in need; and so on.
We are all and each God's children; Jesus Christ made us at the beginning of time, and He has a plan for YOU and YOUR LIFE.
Offspring of our Lord God, the Great Maker and Creator God, blesses you greatly, and remember that once you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, God's Holy Spirit lives within you to teach you, guide you, to help you in countless good ways.
Jesus said, I am the Truth, the Life, and the Way.
Alwa;ys and Forever in Him, alone,
