The scripture debunks annihilationism otherwise known as the doctrine of conditional immortality: the idea that a human soul is not immortal unless it is given eternal life. This satanic doctrine asserts that God will eventually destroy or annihilate the wicked, leaving only the righteous to live on in immortality. But the Bible teaches that all souls are immortal: "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into eternal life” - Matthew 25:46.

The joy derived from the pleasures of sin is transient, yet many are being deceived to go for it instead of the eternal joy that comes with righteousness. Moses made an unpopular choice, although he knew it would cost him the throne of Egypt. He counted the cost of accepting to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter: although it would guarantee temporal enjoyment, the door of heaven would be shut against him.

You may be doing a righteous work in the kingdom of God without heart perfection or holiness. But without holiness no man shall see the Lord. Although Asa could not remove the high places which was part of his assignment, he worked with a perfect heart. God is more concerned about the life or walk of his children than their work. In summary, life is better than ministry.

As a man thinks in his heart so is he: you are the product of your thoughts. Unbelievers are not concerned about going to heaven so their affection is set on earthly things. They are worldly because the god of this world controls them. Believers should not be conformed to this world because although they are in the world, they are not of the world. Every believer should therefore seek to have the mind of Christ.

There are many Christians whose hope are not beyond this life, for they serve not the Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly. Such people whose hope in Christ ends here on earth should be pitied, because they are of all men most miserable. Their suffering in hell will be worse than those who did not believe in Christ, the only way to the Father. Irrespective of what they are doing for the Lord, they are wasting their time.
