Would you make that bet in Vegas?

Would you make a bet in vegas where the best you could do is tie, but if you're wrong you lose everything? That is what you are doing when you reject Jesus because in essence you are saying you don't believe God. In Matthew 3:17 we see God declare "And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” The question we must ask is do we believe Him? Jesus himself says in John 14:6 that He is " the way, the truth and the life," and that "no one comes to the Father but through Him." John 3:16 says Jesus was God's lifeline back to Him in Heaven through which we can be reconciled back to Him by the forgiveness of our sin, and 1 John 5:11-12 says He is the way to eternal life. So if we reject Him, we risk everything because in essence we are saying we don't believe God. That's a very risky bet. We are saying that everyone just lives and die's, there's no eternal life, and if right than we all tie. But God says that there will be secere consequences for those who reject His Son- an eternity spent seperated from Him in a place called hell. "They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."- Matthew 13:42
