What woman doesn’t want their fairytale
ending? I am yet to meet one! And what man doesn’t want to arrive at the end of
his life concluding, “Now that was a great success!” Eulogies at funerals are
mostly misaligned, if only an entire life could be accurately professed! Some
have great stories and they leave a pleasant taste in the mouth of the masses;
take Nelson Mandela as an example, even the staunchest Afrikaner who was once
all for apartheid could tip their hats to him. Madiba a man who I met in person
on a number of occasions was always approachable; be that as it may where is he
now? His soul has left his earthly body and he has now entered the spiritual
realm where the chapter of eternity exists! We will eventually all arrive
there! From the least to the greatest; all will stand before the King of kings
and bow their knee to Him. The Christian, the atheist (if there truly be such a
man of which I am doubtful), the Moslem, the Hindu, the Apache, the Dali lama,
the pope, the Jew, the Barbarian, and the Guru. Every single knee will bow to Jesus
Christ the Lord, the Christian gladly and willingly, the unbeliever forced by
the Hand of God!
The Gospel is a very simple message;
God sent His Son to live here on earth as a man without breaking one of His
laws or statutes. He then was falsely accused of crimes he never committed and
then crucified on a cruel Roman cross on a hill call Golgotha. He was then buried
and on the third day God raised Him from the dead. He was the perfect sacrifice
which allows mankind the opportunity to find forgiveness for their sins.
Acknowledgment of this truth must be confessed by the individual and a sincere
cry to God for the forgiveness of their sin is needed. For those who find this
truth making it their own, will find saving forgiveness! But for those who
reject it for whatever reason will face the judgment of God! Both camps will
however confess this truth with their mouths! If not in this life, then most
certainly in the life to come! Forget all the other dogmas that are bandied
around, you will never come back as a cow!
This world has been tainted with so
many lying lures that most pursue the wrong end. King David’s son Solomon has written
a detailed account in the book of Ecclesiastes of what we chase and his
conclusion is this; “vanity of vanities all is vanity!” I have also lived
enough to understand his conclusion, “Have you?” True fulfillment can and will
only ever be found in the person of Jesus Christ! It is time to stop chasing
the trivialities! He is the happy ending and nothing else will satisfy!
