We are Born to Die
If that’s not a scary thought I don’t know what is. Why would God create this little blue globe and everything on it to be born, hatched or sprout just to end up dying?
Why is it that man is so intent upon saving the planet, the whales, the trees and animals from cruel and harsh mistreatment but have no compassion upon the unborn, newborn or elderly, so long as it doesn’t affect them directly?
Well I have news for you, we are each appointed once to die and then the judgement.
We tend to argue over semantics, like when does life begin in the womb or at birth. We either forgot or don’t know that life begins at creation. Before time there is God who created all that has been created. It is God who created each of us in His image – Spirit. It is God who first knew you and me before our spirit entered our mother’s womb and we became a living, human being, knit together and growing until it was time for our birth.
Our great commission is to love God and to love others as we love ourselves. We are to go unto the entire world and tell everyone the good news – God loves you while our actions speak louder than our words. Can we honestly preach the good news to others while spewing hatred from our lips?
The bible tells us that while we were yet sinners, God loves us and sent his only begotten Son, Jesus to die on the cross, in our place, to pay for the sin of the world so that we could be restored in perfect fellowship with God.
John 3:16 tells us that God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son Jesus into the world so that through him all who believe would not perish but have everlasting life.
Without God death leads to eternal separation from God and there is no turning back.
A genuine relationship with God leads to eternal life both here on earth and after death it leads to being in the presence of Almighty God for eternity.
The choice is yours to make before death, even now – will you choose life or death? – RTM
