1 Corinthians 3:7-9 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor. For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building.
as I ponder death, with comfort of the Lord as my savior, I honestly think my concern lies with those who do not believe. I'm ready for the next chapter when it arrives, patiently. I'm in hurry. But these are the words you do hear from those wo subscribe to this "ideology." thanks for the thought provoking clip
When we die, we return to the earth. Our inheritance is maggots, vermin, and worms. We sleep, and in a seemingly, twinkling of an eye, we will be resurrected to eternal life or eternal damnation. It is best to Fear God all the days of our lives to keep ourselves on the straight and narrow.
A sobering video. Joanne, such wise words. Only the words of Jesus offer real hope of life Eternal, human thinkers offer little other than doubt. The Muslim's prophet offers distorted dreams stolen from other belief systems, it is a great shame that there are so many condemned to be disillusioned at the the moment of departure from this life. It is not enough to live for material possessions, as "death comes like a thief in the night."
Interesting. But I must be honest when I say that Christianity appears to use fear based tactics when presenting Christ to others. This is more common within certain denominations.
