Why would I write on this?
Today too many people are so caught up into this world. I can’t help but believe they think it’s exciting here and now and the whole eternal church service or ghostly spirit world will be boring.
Why would anyone believe that? In what way would that make sense?
It doesn’t. It’s a detractor from Satan. He’s convincing people this is the here and now and you need to live it to the fullest. It’s about you and all that you deserve. Time to take care of numero uno. Don’t let it pass you by without giving your all because you only have one life to live. Live however you want you can always play the forgiveness card at the end.
Lots of lies from the devil and they all come in the same big package.
Heaven boring?
Look around you and see what God has created and it has been cursed in the fall of man. Just think if there wasn’t a curse. Look at the universe and the billons of stars and tons of galaxies out there. Look at the extraordinary detail we are finding out about our bodies every day.
The bible tells us that Jesus is making a place for us. Does that sound like some ghostly boring abode?
John 14:2 – 2In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. KJV
I had to go with the King James Version on that. Many mansions give you an idea that he is going to prepare a great place for those that love Him.
Why would God and Jesus make Adam and Eve the way They did? They were made perfect until they fell. Jesus was perfect when he bypassed the sinful gene on the virgin birth and also displayed his resurrected body to the disciples.
Luke 24:36-39 – 36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. 38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”
Jesus is making it very clear that our resurrection bodies will resemble our earthly bodies, but one very important thing will be different. Sin will no longer be present in it and He will renew it a make it perfect again. It will be able to do many more things and have much more capabilities. Jesus went through a wall to appear to them in the room.
Luke 24:40-43 – 40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.
He revealed to us that this body will still eat. How exciting and also makes sense because we read about the wedding supper of the Lamb in Revelation.
Revelation 19:9 – 9 Then the angel said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!’” And he added, “These are the true words of God.”
There is a reason why we have bodies. Does it makes sense for us to live on this earth in a body and then, noting in Heaven resembles anything were used to? It doesn’t make sense to me if that were the case.
Heaven is going to be anything but boring, but it will be a place for those who love God. Not for those who like the idea of loving God, but for those who have sought Him out, accepted His only Son’s sacrifice so they may be redeemed and forgiven.
I think one of the things I am most shocked at anymore is how I see so many people out there with no desire to seek or love God. Love the Lord first and foremost in your life. He has wonderful things planned for those who do.
