You will die anyway.
Fancy cars, nice clothes, good looking, enormous number of instagram followers, shining intellectuality, charming smile, luxury lifestyle, lovely family, successful networks, power, jealousy, insufficiency, insecurity, poverty, all the highs and lows cannot stop Death. Death devours all the hope we could have. Itâs the ultimate enemy.
Then what are we left with? We need a power that overcomes and destroys Death.
24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power.
25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
(1 Co 15:24-26)
Finally this is Godâs grand plan. He trumps all the authorities and power, that seem to control what surrounds us. But God has control over them and eventually over the death, our greatest enemy. He will achieve all of these on that day, when Jesus comes back.
So, If Jesus didnât die at all, we cannot be forgiven,
If Jesus didnât resurrect, we have no one who fights for us against death.
But Jesus died and raised, therefore we have hope to be resurrected with him.
However you have to decide, because Jesus gave his gift for those who belong to him!
But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. (1 Co 15:23)
The overwhelming power and hope that trumps all rules and authorities and even death are given to who belong to Jesus.
Would you belong to Jesus? Would you believe who Jesus is and what Jesus has done for you?
Would you follow his way?
