Will You Die For Him?

Ray Evans • May 04, 2020
I don't know how many remember the 1988 Apocalyptic Classic "The Seventh Sign" with Demi Moore and Michael Biehn, but I loved that movie.

It's loosely based on the opening of the Seven Seals, but it's pure fiction.  I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but the central theme was "Will you die for him?"

This scripture, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." is really the crux of the whole Bible.

Are you planning to marry?  Ask yourself, "Would I die for him or her?"  If you can't answer, "Yes," maybe you should reconsider your position.  Are you unhappily married?  Maybe the answer to the that question, is the reason you're unhappy.

This is not Marriage Counseling 101; simply to point out that "self-sacrifice;" dying to self and putting others first, was the central theme of Jesus' message and the true test of any serious relationship...including your relationship with God.

To die for someone else is the ultimate sacrifice.  Why would anyone do that?

The only reason anyone would willingly die for someone else, is knowing there is life after death.  I don't mean wishing and hoping, I mean KNOWING, without a doubt, that God and his promises are real. 

It's why the final victory, is over death.

The reason health care is so important today is because people are simply afraid to die.  They're afraid because they don't really know if there is anything after death, so this life is all that matters.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but until you know, without a doubt, God is real...nothing else matters.

Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth

Believing in the "Rapture" relieves you of the responsibility to do anything except believe in Jesus...who will magically whisk you away to heaven. It's a lie, designed to keep you from preparing or being prepared for what's coming.
Job 32:9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.

A lot of well-known and well-respected preachers talk about how long they have been preaching, as if the longer one preaches the more qualified one is to preach.
Job 28:28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom

This may seem a strange question, but it never ceases to amaze me how few people allow God to play an active role in their daily lives. Why anyone would not want the creator of the universe to help them every second, every minute and every hour of every day, is simply beyond me.
Psalms 15:1 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
By Ray Evans 06 May, 2020
The question in Psalms 15, "Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle?" probably has as many answers as there are preachers, but they all stem from a common belief: "Everyone who believes in Jesus goes to heaven." Sounds great, but is it true?
