Two Destinies, One Choice
Matthew 25:46
“And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
In Matthew 25, people are not separated by what they claimed to believe, but by how their lives responded to Jesus. Those who truly knew him showed it in compassion. They fed the hungry, welcomed the stranger, clothed the naked, and visited the forgotten not to earn salvation, but because grace had already changed them.
Eternal life is not merely about living forever. It is about living in the presence of God, restored, healed, and whole. Eternal punishment, by contrast, is life cut off from him, the tragic outcome of rejecting the only source of life itself.
This verse is not meant to make us fearful; it is meant to make us awake. It reminds us that our choices matter. Our love matters. Our response to Jesus matters.
And the good news is this: the door to eternal life is still open. Christ still invites. Mercy is still offered. Grace is still available.
Today is not just another day.
It is a moment of invitation.
Choose life.
Lord Jesus, thank you for inviting me into real life, life with you. Wake my heart to what matters most. Let your grace shape how I love, how I serve, and how I live. Teach me to see others through your eyes and to respond to you with trust and obedience, in Jesus Name, Amen.
