Death
Everybody is fear
of death and each one of us experiences it some or the other day, recently I
have gone through this fear because few weeks back I met with an accident the car driver managed to break in time
because which I was saved or else I
would have bang myself on a divider or a street lamp or in worst condition the
car would have drag me 1 km away. After the accident when I went home I was
thinking what If I would have died I would have missed a chance rather my last
chance to speak with my beloved mom who was not in town. I was scared and thank
the Lord for saving me.
Later I taught am
I prepared for death, resurrection and most important judgment. As a believer
we believe we will be raised from death to face judgment and eternal rewards of
heaven and hell.
Now what of non believers, because they
believe in incarnation ( another life in different form) or few non believers
will be thinking “ if a man die shall he live again?”
Jesus resurrection proves
life after death is possible. Jesus resurrection proves all people will be
raised 1 Cor 6: 14 God raised the Lord from the death, and he will also raise
us by his power.
And also after
death comes not another life (incarnation) but rather judgment. Men dies and
then comes judgment and then primary rewards or punishments. God’s grace and
justice demand that he reward or punish men for their lives. Hebrews 9-27
Everyone must die once, and after that be judged by God.
Because God is
gracious.He offers eternal life to those who obediently receive Jesus
salvation but because He is just He must
punish those who do not repent and live for Him.
Reward for dead one in
Christ name: 1
Thessalonians 4 13-18: Some were concerned that the dead in Christ might lose
their reward but as surely as Jesus arose, He will come again and bring the
dead with Him. He will raise the dead so they along with those still living can
forever be with the Lord.
Resurrection defeats Satan
and gives Jesus Victory:
The final victory over Satan will come when all men are raised. 1 Cor 15 verse
24-26: Jesus will reign till He defeats the last enemy which is death, death
entered because Satan seduced Adam to sin. Christ ultimate victory will occur
when He defeats this last remaining enemy. At the resurrection the spirit
reunites with the body then we are changed so we can inherit the kingdom of
heaven so death is swallowed up in victory.
Prayer: Heavenly Father I thank you for fulfilling
my needs and the needs of the people who are reading this message now. Father
with the constant care which Jesus as for us and with the guard of the Holy
spirit you take care of all of us and save each one of us through the enemy.
Jesus give us good brain to understand the importance of the eternal life so
that we are prepared to change ourselves so that we will not be fear of death
and later judgment. Amen
