Daily Prescriptions

September 9, 2026

It’s interesting how certain things are just burned into one’s memory. I was a very young Christian teenager looking through an antique shop with an interest in an old clock that was for sale (which I absolutely couldn’t afford even if I saved years for it.) But it still was fun looking. Suddenly the owner came up to me and she said, “So I hear you are a young preacher boy. Well, I want you to know that you are welcome in my store, but I don’t believe anything you preach about, and I certainly don’t believe the Bible. I don’t believe in Heaven, and I don’t believe in hell.” She then held up a dusty old book and loudly proclaimed, “Look here. This book proves the Bible is full of mistakes. Mr. Ingersoll has written about them.” I took the old book and as politely as I could, I read back the title. This book was written about Ingersoll and the mistakes he made in accusing the Bible to have errors. I shared with her the gospel message of how she could know the Lord Jesus and trust His Word. I concluded our conversation as graciously as I could, reminding her that there were only two places after we die. We make the decision which place eternally we live…Heaven or the Lake of Fire. Yes, we followers of the Lord Jesus really do believe the Bible. It has no error. Eternity is really forever. Heaven really is the Home of the family of the Lord. The Lake of Fire is the destination of those who reject God’s gracious gift. Heaven is a wonderful forever Home. “In my Father’s house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you” (John 14:2). The Lake of Fire is a horrible forever place of condemnation. “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 these things which were written in the books, according to their works…And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire” (Revelation 20:11-12,15).

I want you to have the joy of knowing the Lord Jesus and looking forward to your wonderful forever Heavenly Home.
