Greetings everyone
According to Bro Eli, we should have our eyes fixed on paradise that God has promised us, instead of being preoccupied with other things.
God didn't intend for us to live life forever on earth. He appointed death for us, after death is judgement and if we're righteous, we will be with God in his paradise.
Paradise will be a Very beautiful place of peace and tranquility, living eternally with our creator. That must be our point of view in life. To be saved and to live with God in Paradise. Because our history will not end here on Earth. If you are earthly and you only think about things on Earth, then you will be suffering from anxiety. But God has told us in the book of Philippians not to have anxiety about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving, we should let our request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, the understanding of physicians, surgeons, doctors, intellects, will keep our hearts.
According to the understanding of this world, doctors may say that you have a few months to live, without the peace of God, you will face serious depression, but if you trust in God, the Peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. You will be free from anxiety or to suicidal tendencies. Death prepares us to face our creator.
According to Bro Eli, death is like graduating from a university with honors. You know you are going to leave the university, but you are glad that you are going to receive your certificate of graduation because you have finished your course.
We shouldn't fear death because to die in Christ is to live forever.
Ecclesiastes 9:5,
For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Let us always trust in God, that we will only die when he has appointed for us to die.
10:29 of Matthew
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
If God thinks of birds, how much more Human beings? Our God is a caring father. He is so mindful of us.
However, it is important for us to live right because even if we gain the whole world, without living right, we'll lose our souls. The whole world is not enough for you to save your soul. Meaning that your soul is very much important than the whole world according to the Bible. Are we going to die as human being without the will of the father? Of course not, because even sparrows will not fall to the ground without the will of the father. Meaning not one of us shall die without the consent of the father. But we must not be preoccupied by that, but be preoccupied by what is coming forth after death, and it will give us Peace of Mind.
