Eternity is Real | Week 1 | Ryan Iverson | May 7 2023 The point of this series is to give you a deeper insight into their realities of heaven, hell and the afterlife. My ultimate goal is that you’d consider your life now and live like heaven is your real home. 00:00 Introduction to our new series 01:11 This series can change your life. 01:15 What we will cover over the next month… 07:33 I cannot soften the Bible’s teaching on the afterlife… 09:37 Heaven and Hell are real places. 09:59 God does NOT send people to Hell. 10:48 Our choices on this earth will impact our future in eternity. 11:42 Both believers and unbelievers will be judged when Christ returns. 13:55 Let’s talk about some misconceptions about heaven. 20:38 Misconceptions about Hell… 20:45 Some believe that Hell is actually a party! 21:03 Some believe that Satan is in charge in Hell! 21:38 We have to understand that the devil is not the king, Jesus is King! 23:27 Christians have accepted a view of Hell more from the Qu’ran than the bible. 24:10 Our North American culture has drifted away from tradition. 26:32 I was created for eternity! 26:34 Peter Creft in his book on Heaven… 28:37 John 8:44 NIV 28:55 Satan lies about heaven… 29:00 Revelations 13:6 29:13 The devil slanders three things… he was evicted from heaven! 30:28 God created you to have a relationship with Him! 31:05 Isaiah 14:12-15 31:40 What better way for the devil to attack us than to whisper lies about the very place on which God tells us to set our hearts and minds as Christians. 32:13 Satan only needs to convince us that Heaven is boring and unearthly existence that is not to be desired.
