the decision of acceptance or denial.
God brought forth his message in the Old Testament scripture through many Major Prophets and Minor Prophets telling of the prophesy to be fulfilled. In the New Testament he brought forth Jesus to fulfill those prophesies one hundred percent and give us instructions for entering his Kingdom to come. His commandments for a new way of life were given in great detail and asked to be followed. Man has chosen to be rebellious and hardhearted and decided to do it his way instead of God’s way ever since. Throughout the course of our life we all walk in the wilderness and at the end cry out for God’s help. If we will surrender to God’s will for our life and live in the peace and joy of God’s message, the door to the Kingdom of Heaven would be within knocking distance.
God’s message is the good news of salvation. There is life after death and Jesus was given to us for that reason, so that we would be strong in our faith and believe in God and that someday he will return for us. The trade off is to live a few years on this earth for the Lord and in return live forever in the eternity of God’s glory instead of going to hell. It is the best deal going by far. |
