One day her daughter said, "Momma, everything I have I have because of Scripture. ...read more

    What happens after death is widely argued among non-Christians. The simple truth is: when you die, you will continue to exist and where you spend eternity depends on the choices you make in the here and now.

    What Happens After You Die? Luke 16:19-31 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION How old were you when you began to realize people die?
