You Don't Have To Be

OK, what am I really trying to say? Well, it really is no surprise

to me when I hear that some people are afraid of death. The question is are you? I used to be.

What comes to mind is my Aunt. She had breast cancer. I remember being told, my Aunt's cancer wasn't getting any better. The doctors told the family it was time to pull the plug so to speak.

There was a problem though. My aunt did not want to do that. In other words she did not want to die. My guess is because she was scared.

My husband and other fellow born again Christian believers say this.  If you are scared of death? That is a clear indicator that you don't know Jesus. 

Friend? Are you scared to die? Think about that for a moment. Did you think about that? 

Good. Now, I want you to think about this. You guys don't need to be scared of death. The Bible says in Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is that but the gift of God is eternal life. OK, so there's no surprise that 1 day we are all going to die. Yes, I know that is quite unfortunate.

However, did you also know Jesus Christ died for you and me! And, if we believe that and invite him into our hearts to live forever. We don't have to be scared of death because after we die? We will spend eternity in paradise with Jesus forever!

Friends listen to me.

Please don't get wrapped up in the web of focusing on different religions. You're centralized focus should be on one thing. That is Jesus Christ.

John 3:16

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Romans 6:23

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

John 17:3

And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

Matthew 25:46

And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

John 5:24

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
