Enjoy Life, Enjoy God

OF THE LIVING

January 29, 2014

Yes, the Christian faith embraces heaven, to be, our beliefs hold to eternal life, but…

 
“He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.”
                                                  --Luke 20:38 TNIV
 
Jesus confronts critics who want skeptically to ponder after-life questions.  It’s still a popular topic.  We love to ponder the other-world, skeptically or not.  But Jesus has nothing to do with it.  Almost as if to say, “Let’s focus on the here-and-now.
 
The great hope of eternity is a bedrock of our faith, of course.  But discipleship is about the living of this day, and tomorrow will take care of itself.  Worship, serve, honor today the God of the living.
 
Joyfully,
