If you're into Evolution are you also into flying saucers, life on other plants, ghosts, Atlantis, Nostradamus, etc, etc ? |
... not forgetting Edgar Casey, Mother Goose and the Tooth Fairy and
all the superstitions that follow a life carefree about ones eternal
place ?...
*****************************************************
when a funeral is given it's a common thing to hear that the
departed now ' rests in peace.'
if that person was estranged from Jesus Christ then death is not
peace. there is more to come. lying in the grave is only a waiting
period. we will all be called out to face Judgement before Him.
if we've chased after all the lies that fill the world then we'd be
correct to say we do not know Him... nor does He know us.
this brings on us the wrath of God who demands an answer for how
we've lived our lives. He will be no means clear the guilty. He is
God and He requires justice... and He will get it.
there is no more a person who can stand before God in Judgement
being guilty than a person in civil court standing guilty of the most
heinous crimes before an earthly judge.
there is no plea bargaining mentioned in the Bible.
we are held guilty and stand alone before God; naked, as our first
parents. He knows what we'll say even before we open our mouth. His
Word of Law in the Bible accuses's us. we know we haven't cared to
listen before this awful Day of Judgement and now it is too late.
we haven't listened to His calling, either out of curiosity nor out
of fear of Judgement. we've turned a deaf ear to that call.
**********************************************
the redeemed life comes with having been born from above, by the
hand of God in Christ... our old nature of alienation from the Living
God is then gone. along with it is taken our old mind and all the
fears and all the unanswered questions about the things in life that
count.
this " born from above " brings to life a heart formerly dead in
spirit. then, and only then, is real peace. alienation from the
Living God is no more. in Jesus Christ is Life and Peace for every
soul made alive by Him. Judgement unto condemnation is no more;
Christ having stood in the place of the condemned one.
therein lay the peace. the grave does not give it. the grave is
death. Life is in the One Living... freely giving grace to those whom
He humbles.
this life can be found by reading the Holy Bible. in His Word is
the power of God in the gospel of the Jesus Christ who came that we
might have life and peace with God.
to us He says... " come and see. "
