You don’t have to believe any of this, but if you have heard the Good News and reject Christ, you are literally choosing to forfeit your soul for eternity and you are without excuse.
Your soul is the essence of who you are — your true self, the eternal part of you that lives on after the body dies. It is who you are in this life, and who you will be in the next.
- The body is temporary, but the soul endures forever (Matthew 10:28).
- The soul is the seat of your mind, will, emotions, and spiritual life — the “you” that makes choices and relates to God.
- Because it is eternal, your soul will experience everlasting life with God or eternal separation from Him depending on what you do with Christ.
“Whatever is the object for which men forsake Christ, that is the price at which Satan buys their souls. Yet one soul is worth more than all the world.” — Matthew Henry Commentary
What is the object in your life for which you forsake Christ?
No object, no sin, no temporary pleasure is worth the eternal price that must be paid for them… your soul.
