In Death with are Living Children of God


Verses: Luke 20 : 27 - 40

My thoughts about the verses:

The question that the Pharisees are posing is a very complex one.  Many people today have the same question.  Even those that believe that there is a life after death there are questions of what it will be like.  Many questions are there really a life after this one. the question that also comes up will we remember those that we come in contact with?  Is there the same concept of relationships in the next life is there is during this life?

See people want to know the ins and outs before they choose to follow God.  People want to know what will happen to them if they accept.  Will people hate them?  Will they have an easy life here on Earth?  They miss that this life is so much different than the next.

Those that accept Christ will be the Living Children of God.  They will be like Angels.  I actually believe what this means is that the things of this world will not exists in the next.  Our main focus will be what we should have done during this life.  That one thing is being in a loving relationship of God.  The children of God will spend their time giving praise to the one that gave them freedom.  No one will suffer.  There will be no pain.  The things that we concentrated on during this life will disappear.

So when you look at these things you will see that the only thing that matters in this life is accepting Christ in your life.  It will not matter what relationships you have with people.  It will not matter the job that you had.  It will not matter the possessions that you collected.  the only thing that matters is that you build a relationship with Jesus.  We need to ask Jesus to come into our life as Savior.

Prayer:

thank you dear Savor for dying on the cross so that we may have eternal life.  Thank you for being the sacrificial lamb that was blemish free.  Thank you for your willingness and humbleness when it came to taking our sins to the cross.  Help us accept your unconditional love and grace.  Help us put you first.  In the name of the Risen Savior we pray.  Amen

Questions:

Do you question what the afterlife is like?  Are you hesitating accepting Christ because of your fears of the future?  Is today the day you start building an everlasting relationship with Jesus?
