IT'S
LATER
THAN
YOU
THINK!
[117.jpg]

You have an appointment.
   Friend, let me ask you this question.   Has death become a reality to you?   By this, I mean can you picture yourself in death?   Do you think of the time when you will draw your last breath?   Can you see your body on that cold slab, waiting to be embalmed?
   You know you are going to die someday.   You do realize that, don't you?   It has happened to people that you knew and some day it will happen to you.
"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement:" Hebrews 9:27.
   Life is so short.   After you were born, you started on a journey through life to meet a certain date, the date of your death.   Every tick of the clock brings you closer to your date with death.   There is no way to stop time.   Do you realize that your life is as a vapour?   "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.   For what is your life?   It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away."   James 4:14.

You cannot change it.
   Death is so final.   There are no reruns.   You don't come back for another chance.   All is over, as far as this life is concerned.   At you last heart beat, you leave your body and go out into eternity.   If you are a lost sinner, you will go to Hell.   "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all nations that forget God."   Psalm 9:17.
   Listen to a person that is in Hell.   "And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth

Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame."
  Luke 16:23&24.

You can be ready for it.
   My friend, you do not have to go to Hell.   God has prepared a way of salvation.   "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."   John 3:16.   "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."   Romans 5:8.
The way is clear.   I beg you to act now.   Be saved to- day.   "(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)"   2 Corinthians 6:2.
   Don't put this matter off another minute.   You aren't promised another day.   Call upon the Lord and receive Jesus as your personal Saviour.   "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."   Romans 10:13.   "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" John 1:12.

   Now friend, if you have received Jesus in your heart, when your time on the earth has ended, death will only be a door way to greater things to come.   "So

when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.   O death, where is thy sting?   O grave, where is thy victory?" 1 Corinthians 15:54-55.   Praise God for a Saviour like that!

Thomas W. Davis      

Why wait any longer?
   Being convicted that I am a sinner, and believing that Christ died for me, I now receive Him as my personal Saviour, and with His help I intend to con- fess Him before men.
   "For the scripture saith, Whosever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." Romans 10:11.

Please write to us to let us know that after reading this tract, you have decided to trust Jesus Christ as your Saviour.
