3 | The Reality of Heaven

Week 1: Jesus' Commission

September 22, 2022 • Matthew 6:19–21

For a place where we will spend the vast majority of our existence, most of us don’t spend much time pondering the reality of heaven, the glorious eternal home of born-again believers. Allow this session to stir your heart with expectation for this wonderful destination, so that you will share the good news with others!

Heaven is a real place that’s even better than you think!
What we do on this earth not only affects whether or not we get to heaven but the rewards waiting for us when we get there.
We need to share the good news with people that no matter what pain they’ve had in this life, there is a better one coming when they give their life to the Lord.

1 | The Reality of Eternity

September 22, 2022 • Matthew 6:19–21

In the light of eternity, what we make a priority in our lives differs greatly from the rest of our culture. This session lays the foundation for how we as believers are to invest our time, talent, and treasure. After this life, you will spend eternity in one of two places, heaven or hell. Don’t spend your life on that which doesn’t last … spend it on eternity. How you live your life on this earth determines where/how you will spend your eternity.

2 | The Reality of Hell

September 22, 2022 • Revelation 20:15

It’s been said that we cannot really appreciate the good news of the gospel without first understanding the bad news. Those who reject the way of salvation are headed to a place of eternal torment. Likewise, those who are believers in name only and not in action are in dangerous territory. Learn more in this sobering session. Hell is a real, agonizing place that will last forever for all who go there. Jesus said, “Many will say to Me, Lord, Lord…” and yet He will respond by saying, “…depart from Me.” We need to be very sure that we’re on the right track and not headed for a shocking conversation with Jesus where He tells us to “depart” into everlasting fire. We cannot sit idly in comfort and allow people around us to unknowingly be on their way to destruction.

4 | The Time is Short

September 22, 2022 • James 4:14

A lifespan of eighty or even one hundred years may seem like a long time, but God’s Word cautions us not to take it for granted. Compared to eternity, human lives are fleeting, coupled with the reality that Jesus’ return draws closer each day. In this session, receive a fresh impartation of urgency for the times in which we live. Jesus is coming soon, and this life goes by so fast … what are you doing with it? God will give us opportunities all around to reach people. Are we taking those opportunities? Use every one of the days that you have to advance the kingdom of God through obedience … because the days are short.
