I've always lived by this principle since the first day I truely accepted Christ as my Saviour. This is because Christ is coming! To add more to that, you never know when the LORD wants you to kick the bucket. Your life is under GOD's hands. It makes it sound like GOD is a not loving GOD and you would have to listen to him to stay alive and well but GOD has already given us so much. "Much" defies the "free will" we've been given from the LORD! Of all the creatures around the world which probably adds up to more than a billion, humans are the only creatures known to have intelligence and creativity. We can make our own choices and know what we're doing. This is because we have free will. We can Choose Jesus (*laughs* VBS 2008 motto *laughs*) or not. We don't have to follow the LORD. Isn't that aready paradise. We can do whatever is on our mind even deedds that cause us to sin. Sin is the one untangible price that costs us to die...spiritually. Life isn't only on Earth but also after the Earth. Our soul will go elsewhere after "life" on Earth and there are only two chices. They are either heaven or hell, white or black, good or evil. There aren't any grey areas or silver linings. (*gospel) Believing in silver linings is equivalent to lying to yourself. You're blindly driving your life into the carcrash of hell. Have you accepted Christ yett? If so, live like it is your LAST DAY. Tell others of the gospel. You must be REAL selfish if you keep such good news to yourself. The LORD tells us to LOVE Him and LOVE others before yourself.
(*gospel)
To prevent us from going to hell or death, the LORD sent his only son. to die for us. In many cultures, the son of the family is the "gold" of the family. God is precious. Why would the LORD send us his only son to die on the cross?...for us? The cross was one of the most painful ways to die. This is because you had to wait with great suffering till you bled to death. Your hands were nailed on each side of the cross and your feet nailed together at the bottom. It is a very uncomfortable position and very difficult to pull yourself upward to make breathing easier since the nails would keep on digging deeper up your foot. The legs of the convicted would sometimes be smashed till their bones were broken so that the convicted couldn't pull themselves up ward to make breathing easier. The crowd would come and watch the convicted die sometimes mock, sometimes mourn. Most of the time the people would mock and laugh at the convicted. This is how Jeusus was treated. Jesus could've made us suffer with him on the cross but he asked the LORD to forgive us.
(Luke 23:34)
"Jesus said, 'Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.'"
On the ninth hour after Jesus was crusified, he died to save us from death. It seems sad that a sinless being, GOD, would die on the cross and Satan or more famously known as the devil had won the battle between good and evil. However a beautiful and joyful event happened. Those who accepted Jesus Christ as their saviour, were relieved from the chains of sin and were reborn again Christian with eternal life.
HAVE YOU BEEN LIVING YOUR LAST DAY?
