Where?

 Where?

        The apostle Paul writes,

"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." 1 Corinthians 1:18

Lucian, Greek rhetorician, pamphleteer, and satirist. (born ad 120, Samosata, Commagene, Syria died after 180, Athens) said of Christians,

"These deluded creatures, you see, have persuaded themselves that they are immortal and will live forever, which explains the contempt of death and willing self-sacrifice so common among them. It was impressed on them too by their lawgiver that from the moment they are converted, deny the gods of Greece, worship the crucified sage, and live after his laws, they are all brothers...." Lucian.

Lucian like many today do did not believe in Christ. But he definitely described what Christians believe.

I've heard Christian friends of mine say Christians can't loose. 

"We may get beat up, tortured, even thrown to lions but we can't loose.

We believe that we are immortal as is everyone ever born. The difference between Christians and none-Christians is that when this life is over, we are certain where we will spend eternity."

We believe that in accepting Christ as our Lord and Saviour we will one day be with him in heaven.

Where will you spend eternity?

Please think about it.
