Summary

When you breathe your last breath and close your eyes one final time, what happens next? People are fascinated by that question. Is there life after death? Is it just lifeless, nothingness? Or is there evidence to say once we die, we’re actually alive somewhere, somehow, in some other way? Chip gives 7 specific evidences for life after death.

Main Points

7 Evidences of Life after Death:
  1. Nature
  2. Anthropology
  3. Psychology
  4. Ethics
  5. Philosophy
  6. Science: Near-Death Experience
  7. Jesus and the Bible
Four basic truths
  1. At death, every person’s soul enters immediatelyand consciously into relational aspects of eternal existence.
  2. One day, everyone will be resurrected and live forever.
  3. Every person will be judgedand granted the “extended capacity” to fulfill in eternity the deepest yearnings and desires of their heart while on earth.
  4. Every person will spend eternity in heaven with Christ and fellow believers, or in hell separated from God forever.
Why there must be a Hell:
  • Man’s dignity and freedom demands a Hell.
  • God’s holiness and justice demand a Hell.
  • Sin’s seriousnessdemands a Hell.
  • Evil’s defeat demands a Hell.
Conclusion:
  • Will your eternal future be a blissful adventure or a horrible choice?
