The primary teaching here is that we all have an appointment with death.
When will that death come? By what form? An accidental trip down a
staircase? A slippery patch of ice? A health issue like a heart attack
or stroke? Or a car accident? Hit by a bolt of lightning?
None of us know when we will die ... but all of us know we WILL die.
-----
The enemy tries to get us to focus only on this world, and the things
here in this world. But the things here in this world are temporal,
and fleeting, and they do not endure, and they are draped in sin and
hate and death and war and greed and all that goes with it.
What Jesus teaches us at the cross is that WE HAVE VALUE. That WE
ARE MORE THAN OUR FLESH. That HE LOVES US and WANTS US TO BE WITH
HIM IN HEAVEN.
-----
God is who God is: the author and finisher of all things.
Until each of us is looking up to Him in that recognition, knowing
truly that He is God and we are His creation ... then there is still
work to be done to educate the people of this fact ... because ...
their eternal soul is riding on that information.
-----
For those who are Christians, God needs to be elevated to the absolute
front of your life. He needs to be out ahead of every decision, every
action, every thought, every deed. We cannot go our own way and have
a correct and proper relationship with God. He must be the primary
and concluding factor in each of our choices, each of our goals. He
must be the reason why we breathe, the reason why we move, the reason
why we decide any thing.
Until that day comes there is work for each of us (Christians) to do.
And if the one to my right or my left falls down in so doing, then I
will pick up that flag and keep going. And if I fall down in so doing,
may my brother and sister take up the flag after I am gone and continue
on.
-----
Jesus Christ offers us everything. For free. Just for the asking.
And until people place value on that offer, our work here is not done.
