If a man dies, will he live again?

Have you ever thought about it?

Suppose you went to a funeral. That night you go to the bed and think “ One day I will be the one in that place. They will take me to the cemetery.”

Is that the end of my story? 

According to the Bible, there is a time to be born and a time to die. While birth is a happy moment death is always a tragedy. The end of all life is death. Life is very short. Every one of us has that strong  feeling “There should be something beyond this life. What is the meaning of this life if death is actually the end?” Is there a life after death? This is the question of millions of people and the bible says,

Yes! There is a life after death.

But in the end, only one man have the right to talk about this subject since he came out of the grave alive and his name is “Jesus Christ”. When people went to his grave that day, an angel said to them, “He is not here. He is risen”. This is a biggest news to the world. 

He is alive.  

Bible says he will return to this world and will build his kingdom. There will be a day when Jesus rule this world and it will be a wonderful world without any death, suffering, misery, war or pain. So there is a hope in our life because there is someone who actually defeated the death and is still living.

According to the Bible, both you and I have a physical body. However, the actual you resides within your body. That is the part of you that will always exist. Your body will be buried at a cemetery and your soul will leave your body. Your intelligence, memory, and personality will live eternally. Death will affect your body but the actual you will never die. According to Jesus we are going to spent thousands of years either in heaven or in hell. In fact men were never meant for hell since it was designed for the devil. If a person chooses to go to hell, he does it voluntarily. God has done everything he can, to block you from entering the hell. To keep you out, he even sacrificed his son on the cross.

When God created us, he give us free will. We can live all the lives we want. We can live a good life or a bad life. We can follow God or reject God. Despite our disobedience and rejection, God still loves us. He loves us so deeply that he sacrificed his son to atone for our sins. He cleansed you and me from the judgment we both deserve. He took the hell away from us by experiencing all the pains of hell in the cross. We just had to believe it and our eternal life will be in heaven. In the moment we accept Jesus, our soul will be saved from hell and there is an everlasting life ahead us, even after our physical death. I know my sins are forgiven and I know I would definitely go to heaven. It’s not because of my good works , not because of some external prayers. By grace I’m saved through faith. Our individual relationship with Jesus is all that matters. 

I'm aware of my origins.

I understand why I'm here.

I have a clear idea of where I'm headed.

Do you?

Are you sure you are going to heaven?

Are you ready to meet God?
