The reason God made us like he did
Greetings in the name of Jesus:
There are many reasons why God made us the way we are, but one of the main reasons is so God can find out the truth about how we feel about him by reading the intent of our hearts. The flesh is the only way God had of making sure that our self will could not be swayed toward evil like Satan had done with the heavenly hosts and then corrupting the spiritual realm. It is through our flesh that we can be tested for honesty, loyalty, and love. It is through our limitations in the flesh that God can safely read the intent of our heart toward him without the interference of all interior motives or our natural tendency to lie interfering with the process.
We have been created to be God's children, to walk and talk with him the way Adam and Eve did. God's word to us is written to tell us what we need to know about here and now in our lives. This word is designed to give an account of the truths about who we are simply so that we can make a decision based upon the intent of our heart to love God and other people. Now this choice is ours to me, and it's really the only thing that matters that we get right in this life something that we still have not gotten straight about deals with the flesh, and the very temporary part of us that is made to be cast away at some point. The other half of us is made to be spiritual and eternal. In today's church we talk about life death but death of our flesh the death of our body is temporary and one time but spiritual death is eternal. In other words the spiritual part of us will live forever but will it be in God's presence? Or will it be with out God's presence?
When we start with this part of our created this it is important to realize it is where most of us make our biggest mistakes. This is the point where the biggest lies are being told. We can expect Satan to lie to us, but it is at this point where the greatest number of false teachings are heard in our churches as well. THE PROMISE: we have all been given a promise by God to give us both light and love. God our father holds the only truth and perfection to life. That is a consistent gift that we can tap into in this life if we choose to. The light is from God, the love that we can feel is a gift from God; even though it is misused for very selfish reasons it is still a free gift for all of us. Our ability to find the truth is a gift as well simply because God has allowed us access to it if we seek it. The fact that God keeps evil from overpowering us is because his grace holds the hate of this world toward us back even as I write these words to you now. It is all a gift from your father.
We know that God is right here with us right now no matter if we want to admit it or not. He can be seen every day very clearly if we choose to look. We have a choice. Now that is where the real rubber comes in for mankind what about choice? We hear all the time about making a choice between life and death in Christ but we are never really told what life and death in God's eyes really is like. Stay with me for a moment you really need to hear this. Have you ever wondered what your life here and now would be like without God's grace and presence every day to protect you? There are a lot of people in our society who say they would rather live without God's grace or presence, but just for a moment think about what that would mean. Can you imagine what it would be like to live right now without the intervention of any good or light? What would this be like if you could no longer love or be? What would it be like to live forever in constant fear of capture or torture in ungodly ways that would simply never in because although you could fill you could never die?
While we are all thinking of these things picture with me for just a moment the worst most frightening horror movie that you could imagine being played out in your life every day for all eternity. Just think for a moment of the degradation and the generation that the very worst of what this world can think up has to offer or be able to produce in pain and in carnage. And then think about fear and of what it would be like for you to live eternally with an with no law and no desire to stop it? Now think about their never being any hope of redemption from that. If you can perhaps you would get a quick glimpse of what it would be like to live without God or his spirit to hold back what is already here just waiting to be released. We do indeed to have a purpose right now. We do indeed have a real choice to make. What I have just described is the difference in God's eyes what real death is like. The choice is all... I can only pray that we all make the right choice. May you richly bless God through your life in him.
