When Adam and Eve rebelled against God, their bodies
were corrupted by sin and they were driven out of the garden. As
result, everyone is born into a life of sin and sooner or later we
all have to die because God doesn't want us to live forever in these
sinful bodies. Thankfully, God's redemption plan doesn't force you
to live eternally in a sinful body. Even in death, your spirit man
remains conscious as you step into the spirit realm. This is an
exciting moment for sure when holy angels escort you to the throne
of God! The first thing that Jesus will examine is your
obedience. No Christian will score 100% because no one became
perfect on earth, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive to for
obedience and your eternal position will be determined at the
Judgment Seat of Christ. Everyone on earth has experienced life that
is marred by sin. So what you need to do is repent on a daily basis,
that way you will have as little sin as possible showing up at your
trial. Life on earth is temporary and now is the time to sow good
seed and work out your salvation. As a Christian, death is something
we can look forward to instead of dreading. |
