Living Forever; Man And God’s View Of Eternity by Danny112: 3:37pm On Oct 10, 2017
The burning question in every corners of life is; is there anything call Eternity? , is man created to last forever? , is the story of Eternity been cooked up by the religious-minded to support their motion on the existence of God? , is death truly the end of man? This are unanswered questions we often times ask ourselves about life.
No matter where your sentiment lies, the truth is man yearns to live forever because God made us to live forever. But the problem is, we often times see living forever from the immortality perspective rather than Eternity. We strives to create lasting legacies on earth, we master-mind evils and accrue wealth crookedly on earth, whereas, we are just a sojourner on earth. Life is a test, we are stewards of the gifts of God and just the way a steward accounts to the house owner we are going to reckon to God one day, but we often thinks our legacies and riches are going to last on earth forever. Sadly given enough time, all records are going to be surpassed all riches are going to pass away, all trophies are going to be trashed but a life truly lived with eternity in view echoes on earth an also in the forever. John, in the beginning of his book, describes the eternal minded as a lights that shines and darkness comprehended it not. Humans may not adore the eternal minded but God treasures them and he has promised to reward them in Eternity!
Truly eternity exists, whether u acknowledge it or not, it’s living with God Forever. Death is never the end, it’s a transition into eternity when Christ comes, our time on earth is not the whole side of the story it’s just the most told part of the story. Earth is the seen part of our life and according to 2 Corinthians 4:18 “……. The seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal”. Your whole Life on earth compared to the one to be spent on the other side of earth is like a day, so why waste your whole life craving for un-lasting legacies when you can create one in eternity. The riches of the World can only put a temporary smile on your face but true Happiness lies in living for God.
I tell you, there are two types on people on earth: peeps who will spend eternity with God and peeps who will spend their eternity in the other side of God where tears and nagging of teeth never seizes. And to live with God forever you must embrace the principles of Eternality (Which ahm gonna discuss in days to come). The principles lies in the scriptures. The principles are summed up in the first two verses of Roman 12 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will”.

DEAR BRETHREN, I URGE U TO CHOOSE GOD TODAY AND CREATE A LASTING LEGACY IN LIFE TO COME
