Certainly, it's a common understanding that manufacturers assign predetermined expiration dates to the products we use, often with a safety margin. For example, if your lotion is set to expire in 2025, the expiration date printed on the lotion bottle typically falls a year or two prior to that date. Many individuals go about their lives as if they possess advanced knowledge of their precise expiration date or as if they've been guaranteed a specific number of years on this planet.
Human beings consist of a spirit, possess a soul, and inhabit a physical body. Here's some news, both positive and negative. Our time on Earth is short, even if we were granted a millennium, it would still be brief compared to eternity. Death is just a transition, as there is existence beyond death, regardless of our beliefs.
/Ku shin Uma/ translates as Death or Life.
How you live here on earth determines where you spend eternity.
Here's the good news,
John 5:24 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."(kjv)
While the loss of a loved one is undoubtedly painful, it pales in comparison to the thought of them not finding eternal peace.
There's the physical death that affects our body, and then there's a spiritual death that impacts our spirit. Even while physically alive, one can be spiritually dead. We can observe in the scriptures that until Jesus' sacrifice, death held dominion, but He arrived to change that. John 10:10 "...I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
After death, one's existence continues in either heaven or hell, and the choice of where to spend eternity is yours, either with the Father or separated from Him. At the moment of death, the physical body is left behind, while the soul and spirit persist. The Bible unequivocally conveys the concept of life after this earthly existence and a state of death following it.
So, what is death? It's living without Jesus, characterized by suffering and darkness. On the other hand, life is an eternal existence with Jesus. The path to embrace this life is the question at hand.
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." How?
Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
Say this prayer with me, Dear Heavenly Father, I believe in Jesus Christ your son. I believe He died and was raised again for me. I believe He is alive today and I confess with my mouth, that from today, Jesus is the Lord of my life. I receive eternal life into my spirit. I am a child of God. I am born again. Glory to God!
Congratulations👏
I love you❤️
