THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW
Part 45: Life After Death |
|
|
Unless you're terminally ill, nobody knows when their
time on earth is going to end. However, Jesus knew the day was
approaching and He wanted to prepare the disciples for His upcoming
crucifixion. The men following the God-man only had one goal - the
restoration of Israel. The words of Jesus were in stark contrast to
the Kabbalistic dream. This is why they gave no thought to life
after death - all that mattered was the here and now! The idea of
laying up treasures in heaven certainly did not resonate because
they were consumed with the idea of expelling the hated Romans. Even
after the resurrection, they continued to ask when Israel would be
reinstated, but eventually they recognized the God-man had paid for
the sins of humanity and the need for mankind to be born again. If
you do not believe in an eternal life, you are definitely not going
to prepare for it. How much time do you spend educating yourself for
eternity? |
