Only two ways to die

Death is something none of us can avoid. The Bible teaches there are only two choices about how we die. We with either die "in faith" or "in our sins." Ezekiel warns us that Christians have a responsibility to try to change the wicked from their ways and lead them to faith (Ezekiel 3:17-19). Jesus tells us the same thing in the New Testament (John 8:24). Death is not the worst thing that can happen to us, the worst is to "die in our sins." The last thing we want to do to a person with a terminal illness is to make him feel uncomfortable in any way. God commands us to speak to the dying about their need for a Savior. Ezekiel makes that clear. In Matthew 25:31-46, Jesus gives warning. Those who die in their sins will be separated. They will be counted with the goats.
