Romans 5:8- But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
To know that Christ died for a sinner like me and all the sinners out there is quite amazing. It is so amazing that it is both one of the most talked about acts in the world and one of the most controversial religious discussion ever. Whether or not you believe it, I'm here to tell you that I'm glad He died for me.
If you have never thought about life after death, perhaps you should start today. I know that no one wants to think about death, but as it becomes more apparent to us that death is real, maybe it is a good idea to start considering what happens after you die. And if eternal sleep isn't what you believe, or reincarnation isn't something you believe either, then maybe you should consider an eternal life with the Creator.
The notion of an eternal life seems so distant for most of us because our minds are trapped in the fallible and finite arrangement it was conceived in. We have been damaged by the presence of sin and the natural law of death that an eternal life sounds like something out of a fairytale.
Well whether you can or cannot wrap your head around the infallible and infinite God, sending His only son to the Earth, and then Christ dying for your sins; yeah whether you can believe it or not, just consider what an afterlife with Christ promises and what an afterlife without Christ promises.
I'm still stuck on while I was and still am a sinner Christ died for me. (Still trying to wrap my head around that one. I'm so a sinner).
Get to know Christ.
