In the introductory verses of this Sürah, an invitation towards the Right Way is extended to the people who were considering it a strange thing that Allah’s message was being conveyed by a human being (Muhammad). They were charging the Prophet with sorcery, whereas there is neither anything strange in it nor has it anything to do with sorcery or soothsaying. The prophet is simply informing mankind about two facts:

Allah, Who has created the universe, is, in fact, your Rabb, and He Alone is entitled to be worshipped.
That after the life in this world, there will be another life in the next world, where you shall have to render full account of this world's life. You shall be rewarded or punished according to whether you adopt the righteous attitude required by Allah after acknowledging Him as your Rabb, or act against His will.

Both of these facts are realities in themselves, whether you acknowledge them as such or not. If you accept these, you will have a very blessed end; otherwise you shall meet the evil consequences of your misdeeds.
