Three of the greatest questions, maybe the deepest questions, we can ever ask are these…

1. Where did we come from?


2. Where do we go when we die?
3. What is the meaning of life, the purpose to it all?

I’m sure most, if not all of us, have asked these questions outwardly or inwardly at some
point in our lives. Maybe we don’t like to admit it, for whatever reason!

You may have had some time driving, or sitting alone, & tried to think these things through?

LIFE is full of ‘twists & turns’, you never know what’s around the corner!

But is LIFE just about education, buying a house, earning money to pay the bills, getting
married & raising a family, THEN WE DIE? Is that it?

Isn’t life ‘deeper’ than that? Isn’t there more to it?

Did this whole complex universe, full of laws governing the planet, your body which is so
intricate in every detail just happen by accident & chance ‘billions’ of years ago? Is
everything we see ‘accidental?’ To believe that takes some faith!

Or, is there a Creator, a Designer that ‘created’ everything we see, & one day, we shall have to
answer to Him?

So where can we go to find ABSOLUTE TRUTH?

Who or what can we really trust in this life?

Everybody has different ideas, opinions & ideals: but WHO is right?

No matter what you have heard or what has ever been said, know this…there is NO book
like the Bible!

Written over a period of 1600 years, penned by over 40 different people, there is not ONE
error or contradiction in the Bible (Authorized Version); NOT ONE ERROR – no matter what
you have heard!

Why? Because this book, authored BY GOD, & written ‘via’ man has been PRESERVED
PERFECT by GOD Himself!
Now the Bible stands alone, compared to ANY book, because it is the ONLY book in the world
that ‘HAS’ been, & ‘IS’, 100% accurate on fulfilling its prophecies! No other book dare do
what the Bible does!

You know, the Bible is the best selling book of all time; that means more copies of the Bible
have been sold & distributed than any other book, EVER! And yet today, it is probably the
least read! God has only ever written ONE book, the Bible: By the way listener, have YOU read
it?

When I say prophecy, what do I mean?

PROPHECY – means to foretell, before and to tell. This ought to be written prophesy! A
foretelling; prediction; a declaration of something to come.

1
Prophecies such as these…

Christ’s birth – prophesied over 700 years before Jesus Christ set foot on earth; stating that
He would be born in Bethlehem! (Micah 5v2)

The prophet Isaiah (Isa 53) told us how the Messiah would suffer & die on our behalf – over
700 years before Jesus showed up!

King David, in Psa 22, prophesied the actual words Jesus would say on the Cross of Calvary
as He was dieing; David gave us other such specific prophecies that it would be absolutely
impossible for any human to know ‘in detail’ what was going to happen to the Lord Jesus
Christ without God revealing it to that individual!

You want proof of the AUTHORITY of the Bible, the Scriptures, PROPHECY IS THE PROOF -
listen to just a few other prophecies…

We are told…

The Lord Jesus Christ would be betrayed by a friend in Ps 41v9 – fulfilled in Luke 22v21

We are told the actual amount He would be betrayed for i.e. 30 pieces of silver in Zech 11v12
(nearly 500 years BEFORE Christ set foot on earth!) – fulfilled in Mat 26v15

We are even told that the money used to betray Jesus would be cast down onto the floor in
the temple & not accepted in Zech 11v13 – fulfilled in Mat 27v5

There are many, many more that we just can’t go into because of time (but if you want a list
of them, call me or write to me & I’ll send you one!)

No other ‘holy’ book in the world dare do what the Bible does – the Bible is Unique; it stands
ALONE, against all others!

Now there were 25 specific predictions made by the Old Testament Prophets bearing on the
betrayal, trial, death and burial of Jesus. These were uttered by different prophets during
the period from B.C. 1000 to B.C. 500, yet they were all literally fulfilled in 24 hours in one
person.

I’m told, according to the Law of “Compound Probabilities” there was one chance in 33
million that these 25 predictions would be fulfilled as prophesied.

It is a fact that there were 109 predictions literally fulfilled at Christ’s First coming. Apply
the Law of “Compound Probabilities” to this number, and the chance would be one in
BILLIONS that they would all be fulfilled!

What other book on earth dare do that!

So you can see right from the start that the Bible is GOD’S BOOK & it is different from any
other book of any other religion etc.

So back to our three questions…

1. Where did we come from?


2. Where do we go when we die?
3. What is the meaning of life, the purpose to it all?

2
Where did we come from?

How did the human race get here?

This is probably one of the most controversial subjects on the planet!

Evolutionists & Creationists have been battling this argument out for years!

Without going into much detail or depth, again because I only have the time on this tape to
speak to you, I would like to state the following important points why ‘evolution’ is totally
wrong & unscientific; even though unfortunately, most of the world has been conned by this
THEORY & it is just that; a THEORY!

I like what one Creationist said once regarding the theory of evolution... “Hydrogen is a
colourless, odourless gas which given enough time, turns into people!!!”

Evolution is a lie because…

There are NO transitional fossils! Evolutionists seem to know everything about the missing
link EXCEPT that it is missing! The fossil record of one animal ‘half-way’ through turning
into another one is one of the greatest arguments against evolution…

There are NO ‘transitional’ fossils found for any of the following…

Single cells turning into invertebrates


Invertebrates turning into fish
Fish to amphibians
Amphibians – reptiles
Reptiles to birds or mammals
Land animals to sea mammals
Non flying mammals to bats
NOR apes to humans!

NONE NOT ONE fossil has ever been found of an animal in the half-stage or transitional
period! Speaks volumes to an honest man doesn’t it!

There are NO transitional fossils because evolution is a lie & if you believe it you have been
deceived like so many others!

Since we are supposed to have come from monkeys/apes why is there not one single
monkey, ape or human in the half stage? Why have they NEVER found one out of all the
billions of people that have ever lived: BECAUSE evolution is a lie!

If you know somebody who believes in evolution ask them these few questions, & then
watch the colour drain from their face!…

 Where did space for the universe come from?


 Where did matter come from?
 Where did gravity come from?
 Where did the energy come from to begin the organising?
 When, where, why, & how did LIFE come from DEAD matter?
 When, where, why, & how did LIFE learn to reproduce itself?
 How can EVERYTHING come from NOTHING?

If you’re an honest person listening to this tape/CD, & you are ‘open-minded’ you KNOW
evolution just does NOT make sense when you really look at it!

The Bible says…

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done
abominable works… (Ps 14v1)

So whether you are a professor at Oxford University leading the field in evolution &
spreading this lie across the world; the Bible says you are a FOOL to say there is no God!
…let God be true, but every man a liar! (Rom 3v4)

The first verse in the Bible says… In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
(Gen 1v1)

Ac 17:24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of
heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

Col 1:16+17 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in
earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities,
or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things,
and by him all things consist.

Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of
God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.

So the Bible clearly states that Almighty God, The Creator, created everything. For a detailed
account of how He did this, read the first THREE chapters of Genesis i.e. the first book in the
Bible!

So the answer to our first question ‘Where did we come from?’ is, God created mankind;
evolution had absolutely NOTHING to do with anything!

Because God created us, we are responsible to Him & we will answer to Him.

The Bible says…


And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Heb 9:27

Which leads on to our next question…

Where do we go when we die?

The Scripture we just read said that after we die there is a JUDGMENT!

You & I will one day stand before the Lord Jesus Christ & be judged!

Now there are two main judgements spoken about in the Bible…

1) The Judgement Seat of Christ


2) The Great White Throne Judgement

The Judgement Seat of Christ is the judgement where all the Christians that have put their
faith & trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation will receive their rewards. This judgement
is NOT about all the sins we have committed because the judgement for our sin, Christ took
on the cross of Calvary (which we shall talk about in a little while!)

4
The Great White Throne Judgement is where EVERYONE who has rejected the way of God &
went their own way through this life, will stand before GOD & be judged for EVERY SINGLE
sin they have ever committed!

Listen to these following verses…

Re 20:11-15 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the
earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the
dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another
book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those
things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up
the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in
them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell
were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found
written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Imagine that the moment you came into this world there was a camera on you which
recorded every second of you life; This camera was also able to record every word you ever
said & every thought you ever had! Imagine that!

Now the entire ‘film’ of your life is going to be played in front of every single person that has
ever lived! I don’t know about you, but I certainly wouldn’t want to be at that showing!

Now this may sound a little far fetched but something like it will take place on judgement
day before God, but a billion times worse!

The only way you can miss having your ‘film’ shown is by wiping that tape clean i.e. getting
rid of all your sins BEFORE you die or BEFORE Christ comes back; whichever comes first!

There is only one of two places you can go when you die: Heaven OR Hell!

There is no such thing as an in-between stage i.e. Purgatory or something similar! Purgatory
is a MAN –made doctrine brought into being by Pope Gregory in 539 AD!

Depending upon what YOU do with the Lord Jesus Christ DEPENDS ‘where’ you will spend
eternity!

Now listen to these following verses carefully…

I’ve often been told that the Bible is too difficult to understand; well the following Scripture,
which contains 19 words are ALL only one syllable words…listen…

He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. (1 John
5v12)

1 John 5:11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is
in his Son.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Rom 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.

5
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his
only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Because you & I are sinners, we have all sinned & done wrong, so many times against God &
each other, if we’re honest: Jesus Christ came to earth to take our sin upon Himself, die & be
judged in OUR place!

2 Co 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be
made the righteousness of God in him.

1 John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no
sin.

So Jesus loved us so much that he willingly came & died for YOU & me!

Three days later, he arose from the dead, victorious over death, Hell, & Satan!

The Gospel is this…

We are all sinners - For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Ro 3v23)

Death is a result of sin - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Rom 6v23)

We need a Saviour - For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord. (Luke 2v11)

We can’t save ourselves – For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
(Eph 2:8+9)

ONLY Blood can wash away my sin – In whom we have redemption through his blood,
even the forgiveness of sins: (Col 1v14) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light,
we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth
us from all sin. (1 John 1v7 ) Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by
tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb
without blemish and without spot: (1 Peter 1v18+19)

There is ONLY ONE Mediator - For there is one God, and one mediator between God and
men, the man Christ Jesus; (1 Tim 2v5) It isn’t Allah, Mary, Buddha or any other so called
‘god’ – the ONE mediator between man & God is Jesus Christ!

It’s all about The Lord Jesus Christ’s death, burial & resurrection - Moreover, brethren, I
declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received,
and wherein ye stand; For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received,
how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried,
and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: (1 Cor 15v1+3+4)

Christ is the ONLY WAY - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14v6)

Religion can’t save you, good works can’t save you – Jesus Christ is the ONLY one who can
save you!

6
So the question is ‘are YOU saved?’ - And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and
thou shalt be saved, and thy house. (Acts 16v31)

You either die with your sins forgiven by the Lord Jesus, or you die IN your sins! Without
Him there is NO hope? - He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that
believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the
only begotten Son of God. (John 3v18) He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting
life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth
on him. (John 3v36) The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that
forget God. (Psa 9v17)

Friend, YOU have everything to gain by becoming a Christian - But as it is written, Eye hath
not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which
God hath prepared for them that love him. (1 Co 2v9)

So what are you waiting for? Get saved TODAY; NOW!

By becoming a Christian you have had every single sin forgiven & a place in Heaven awaits
you when you die, or when Christ comes; whichever is first!

Therefore it is only Christ who can bring peace to a world full of turmoil - John 14:27 Peace I
leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let
not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the
world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Rom 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ:

You will only ever find TRUE peace in Jesus Christ!

If you die without Christ you place yourself under the wrath of God & you will land up in the
physical, literal, real place called Hell for eternity – There is NO escape!

I would urge you again to come to Christ now!

Now to our last question…

What is the meaning of life; the purpose to it all?

Well as we have already seen by the Scriptures we have read, Jesus Christ is the central
figure in the Bible & He should be the central person in your life!

Col 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. (i.e. FIRST place!)

The meaning of life is to have a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. When you truly have
this, you will know & understand what life is all about.

Without Christ in your life you & I have no hope. It doesn’t matter if we make millions, live
in a mansion & have great power & authority; Without Christ we merely exist, we do not
LIVE!

7
Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his
own soul?

It is no accident that you are listening to this tape/CD! God wants to SAVE you!

2 Pet 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness;
but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance. The Lord does NOT want you to go to Hell; if you go there you ONLY
have yourself to blame!

Repent & turn to Christ before its too late! He loves you so much!

I’ve heard many people say that the Bible is a book full of rules & its boring; I tell you this, if
you know the Author of the Bible, you will love His word & this book, ‘the word of God’, will
become the most amazing book you have ever picked up & read.

Get SAVED today!

If you would like to ask any questions or pass on any comments, please call me or write to
me; I would be only too happy to talk with you.

I pray that you too have found the TRUTH, to the deepest questions mankind has ever
asked…

Where did we come from?


Where do we go when we die?
What is the meaning of life; the purpose to it all?

Eph 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is
in Jesus:

I close with the following reading from 1 Thes 4v16-18 This is the next great event to
happen for the Christian…Christ’s SECOND COMING!

Read 1 Thes 4:16-18
