Irony

Irony is what I witnessed last night as the world flocks to cheat death. Carte Blanche an awarding winning news channel ran a piece on scientists studying the brain of a worm and making a digital clone of it and then mimicking its exact functions through a Lego Robot. Their goal to clone the human brain making a digital print of it, with the hope of that particular brain living on forever. Immortality from the thoughts of a corrupt and tainted individual. It’s as if every effort is being made with sin looking to live on, which will never happen as God has spoken and condemned it. It will live for a season and then termination will happen. So much wasted energy, if only we would just read the script and understand our role in HIS production.

Why a worn and not a human brain one may ask? They cannot gather all the relevant data as the human brain is far too intricate. Their objective; looking to slow down the process of all sicknesses as the overarching goal. Obviously classifying the aging process as a disease. The smarter people think they are the louder the laugh can be heard from heaven; he who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit is saying…

God has spoken! Put him first and it will be well with our souls, but to try and outsmart Him is a fool’s errand. Eternity is a truth that will are all part of, it’s a slice of God’s design, and for those trying to cheat death, will be taken by it. Not once but twice; “Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.” (Revelation 20:14)  

Look at the history of mankind how their lifespan has been shorten, it’s not because of Global warming or some poor dietary choices that has reduced the years we get to live in our carnal bodies. It simply because of God’s intervention. The creator dictates the outcome of His creation. There is no other hidden clues that we need to be exploring; Honour God, put him first in your lives, seek out his righteousness in and through the finished work of the cross. Acknowledge your sin, all of it, confess it, seek out God’s forgiveness and then call upon the name of Jesus Christ the Lord; believe that God raised him from the dead and then confess him as Lord and your eyes will be opened, enabling you to look into heaven through the eyes of faith. God will open them, He will do the work and you will be able to cry out in full assurance; “I once was blind but now I can see”.

The question we may find ourselves asking, is why? It’s always “why” in one form of another if we not in sync with the voice of God. Our sole objection in this life is to fear God and to seek out his righteousness on a daily basis, we will not always live victoriously, however because Jesus died in my place my sin has been paid for. He has taken the punishment for it and if that doesn’t melt a person’s heart I don’t think anything can. I know who I am and for God to offer me forgiveness is astronomical and beautiful all at the same time, THANK YOU JESUS FOR SAVING MY SOUL!

“The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days that Adam lived were 930 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:4-5) - Why did God shorten the lifespan of mankind? The answer is a simple one; “Then the LORD said, “My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.” (Genesis 6:3)  -That’s when we have the first recorded intervention of God shortening the lifespan of his creation. But we still need to know why? “The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” (Genesis 6:5)

The fruits of sin will live on until it won’t.

Reject God, worship the creature above the Creator which is now very obvious to see the world embracing with open arms and this will be your end; “Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done.” (Revelations 20:11-12) – You will stand naked and ashamed before a holy God for not embracing that wonderful lifeline, the Lord Jesus Christ and receive the just recompense for your own sin. I implore you, call upon the name of Jesus while he can still be found.    

Remember the thought of Gods opinion when it comes to the worldly wise; “Claiming to be wise, they became fools…” (Romans 1:22)

Here is the encouragement I leave for all; “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7)
