WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE? Part 4 "NO DEATH", Why? (Sub-title; EVERLASTING LIFE!)

1. God's original Purpose, what was it?

2.  What happened to it, and will it ever be realized?

3.  After the rebellion in Paradise, he immediately made plans to fix it!

4.  Who will benefit from Jesus' sacrifice and gain everlasting life? 

               God's original Purpose, what was it?

            God's original purpose was for the earth to be filled with a world society of righteous people forever in true peace and harmony, and with no death.  What happened?  Why are things the way that they are now?  Will we ever see any relief from the troubles of such an imperfect world? Yes!  Even in the Garden of Eden, he made plans to undo the future effects of that rebellion! And I will put enmity*

+ between you+ and the woman+ and between your offspring*+ and her offspring.*+ He will crush* your head,+ and you will strike*

 him in the heel (Gen. 3:15; 1-13)

         What happened to it, and will it ever be realized?

            Nothing has happened to it.  Through God's powerful Holy Spirit, His Word, and the prophetic drama that has been unfolding for centuries, His purpose has been realized.  The way of holiness is in our midst, and all honest-hearted ones can find it.  No one wicked will stumble onto it.  And a highway will be there,+

Yes, a way called the Way of Holiness.

The unclean one will not travel on it.+

It is reserved for the one walking on the way;

No one foolish will stray onto it.

 9 No lion will be there,

And no vicious wild beasts will come on it.

They will not be found there;+

Only the repurchased ones will walk there.+(Isaiah 35: 8,9) 

After the rebellion in Paradise, he immediately made plans to fix it!

          At Genesis 3:15, the first prophecy spoken in the inspired word, set the stage for the prophetic drama on down to our day, stating: "And I will put enmity*

+ between you+ and the woman+ and between your offspring*+ and her offspring.*+ He will crush* your head,+ and you will strike*

 him in the heel.”+"  Jesus proved to be that promised seed, or offspring to make provisions for obedient mankind to realize, and gain everlasting life, thus bruising Satan in the head, and doing away with his rule and his way of life, that most of his offspring have become accustomed to. (Rev 20:1-3)

Who will benefit from Jesus' sacrifice and gain everlasting life? 

           All those who find that highway, called the way of holiness, and persist on it, for the devil, will do all he can to keep one from finding it.  The ones that do will be put under great tribulation, to stay on it.  However, they must keep persevering, and keep sounding the warnings to help all those, rightly disposed for everlasting life to find it.  When those of the nations heard this, they began to rejoice and to glorify the word of Jehovah, and all those who were rightly disposed for everlasting life became believers.(Acts 13:48; 44-47)

WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE? Part 3 Be aware of the love of money, Why? (Sub-title; We are in Danger!)

 1. Why should we be aware of the love of money?

 2. The dangers of the love of money, to us and the ones we think we can trust.

 3. How can we remain vigilant?

 4. We are in danger, how?

         Why should we be aware of the love of money?

       Why should we be aware of the love of money?  It is because no one is immune to it; we all can be affected by it in some way.  Either we are consumed by it ourselves, or are direct victims of those who are consumed by it.  But those who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare+ and many senseless and harmful desires that plunge men into destruction and ruin.+ 10 For the love of money is a root of all sorts of injurious things,+ and by reaching out for this love some have been led astray from the faith and have stabbed themselves all over with many pains.+(1 Tim 6:9,10)

The dangers of the love of money, to us and the ones we think we can trust.  

          We should not underestimate its effects on ourselves and the ones we think we can trust.  Meaning that, although we all know that it is bad, if push comes to shove, if one does not guard one's heart, even though we all know it is bad, Satan will get us to give in to it, because it is a great deal of money.  

Again, I turned my attention to all the acts of oppression that go on under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, and there was no one to comfort them.+ And their oppressors had the power, and there was no one to comfort them. 2 And I congratulated the dead who had already died rather than the living who were still alive.+ 3 And better off than both of them is the one who has not yet been born,+ who has not seen the distressing deeds that are done under the sun.+(Ecc. 4: 1-3)

                         How can we remain vigilant?

           We remain vigilant by resisting this snare of the Devil, by not returning evil for evil to anyone.  Also, by remembering the bible principles that help us to be prosperous.  Be content with the basics: food, clothing, and shelter.  Because you say, “I am rich and have acquired riches and do not need anything at all,” but you do not know that you are miserable and pitiful and poor and blind and naked,: (Rev. 3:17)

                           We are in danger, how?

             As time progresses towards the end of this world, world rulers, authorities, law enforcement, and all things that are supposed to be luminaries are simply going to, instead, add to the darkness of this dying world, ruled by Satan.  So, one may want to lean towards materialism to compensate for the constantly changing times.  However, just have faith!    

And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven with the key of the abyss+ and a great chain in his hand. 2 He seized the dragon,+ the original serpent,+ who is the Devil+ and Satan,+ and bound him for 1,000 years. 3 And he hurled him into the abyss+ and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not mislead the nations anymore until the 1,000 years were ended. After this he must be released for a little while.+(Rev 20:1) (Psalm 37:10,11)

Last time on: Short stories and Poems Presents: THE SECRET EYE!: Robo-love Part 3 (Sub-title; Party crashers!)

 George:  "Your offspring!"  "Ever since he found out about you, and the day you mated with your consort, he has been after me to grant him custody of your firstborn!"  "For college studies!"

Susie:  "No way!"

George:  "Hold that attitude, and if he brings it up, continue to refuse!?"

Susie:  "Right, Papa!"

The wedding went well, and everyone seemed to be having a great time, then suddenly a time gravity well opened up in the room, and Nozi soldiers entered the room on giant spiders, and Susie said.:

Susie:  "No! Not today of all days, I really hate those things."

Acting supreme leader:   "No body move!?"  As they were entering the room, George, Susie, and Man-bot's suits emerged from under their clothing, of Micro-nano-bot tech, and fully protected them. Then the Acting Supreme Leader said again.:

Acting supreme leader: "Don't anybody move, and someone tell me what has happened to my father, the actual Supreme Leader?"  "It makes no difference that you have the means to protect yourselves, Mr. Secret Eye?"  "Your guests are not so protected!"  "One move, and they all get!"  "Tell me what I want to know??"

TO BE CONTINUED

Suddenly, the super-suits of the other guesses emerged, from under their clothing, and Doctor Manis says:

Dr. Manis: "Do you really think we would go anywhere without taking every precaution?!"

George:  "Nevertheless, there is no reason I cannot just tell you what you want to know!"  "Your Father is well on his way to the Golden Planet!"  "Somewhere near the Horsehead nebular system!"  "If you hurry, you might be able to catch up with him before he and his fleet are captured, arrested and put into a rehabilitation program."

Acting supreme leader:  "This is your doing!"  "My father warned me of your cleverness!"  "If anything happens to him, I will avenge him, and that's a promise!"

George:  "Fine, well and good, but hurry, you might can catch up with them before it too late!"  "You might have to build another starship first, I believe, he took all the ones he had with him!?"

Acting supreme leader:  "That's very amusing."  "We will meet again!"  "That you can count on!"

George:  "I can't wait!"

The Acting supreme leader snarled at him as they descended back into the time gravity well as they retreated from them.

Susie: "Papa, you are so crazy talking to those made-men that way!"

George:  "I knew they would not start a firefight, riding on walking land mines."  "We would all be blown to bits!"  "Also, they are quite mad, as you reminded me, but they are not so crazy that they want to die, and take us with them."  "They are the master-race, and they have a whole universe to conquer, and take over and rule!"

Susie:  "Not on our watch!"  "Right, Papa!?"

Everyone: "You dang skippy!"

As the marriage party broke up, Susie and Man-bot are eagerly contemplating their nuptial chamber, after they retire for the day! When they began, and shook off the nervousness and uncertainty, finally came the moment all were waiting for: "We have a zygote!"  Then the parenting program was also activated in Susie and her husband, then Susie opened her eyes and said:

Susie: "What are you doing, love? We have a Zygote!?"

Man-bot: "Yes, I know what it means, a fertilized egg!" "What of it?"  "He said as he continued!"

Susie:  "Wasn't that our desired goal?"

Man-bot:  "Of course, but check you, programming, we are allowed to enjoy ourselves too!"

Susie:  "Computing love!"  "I see, my bad!" "Please, continue!?"  "I just didn't want to have kittens when I finally gave birth!" "Lol 😋"

Man-bot:  "Ha, Ha, Ha!" He said as he put his lips on hers so she could not say anything else as the night faded away.  Soon their battery power was low, and they automatically went into charge mode, both dreaming of each other as they recharged and slept, with a very peaceful smile on their faces as they slept, as they held each other's hands.

WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE? Part 2 Belief in God? (Sub-title; Unbelief, an Excuse not to be Obedient?)

 1. Why do people who claim unbelief ramble on as if they are so sure? 

 2. Why does everyone have doubts at one time, especially at a very early age?

 3. Even without knowing the truth, why do we still feel there has to be a God?

 4. Is it true that most don't want to believe, as an excuse to be disobedient?

Why do people who claim unbelief ramble on as if they are so sure?

          For starters, the bible is loaded with so much information, stocked full of God's thoughts, and it is a product of his holy spirit.  One has to appreciate that fact before one can begin to understand. Note, God's thoughts are much higher than our thoughts.  Isiah 55:8,9 states,  “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,+

And your ways are not my ways,” declares Jehovah.

 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

So my ways are higher than your ways.  And my thoughts than your thoughts.+  Those who claim unbelief ramble on as if they are so sure, because they don't need to believe, because their lifestyle is out of harmony with truth, and they don't want to believe in someone who might punish them for the things that they practice.  The law of Moses is enough to terrify most people.(Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and  Deuteronomy)  However, by claiming disbelief, they think they are safe! So they continue to do bad, without fear of punishment. (Ecclesiastes 8:11,12)

Why does everyone have doubts at one time, especially at a very early age?

         Naturally, an infant or an adolescent child will have doubts, that is why Jehovah commanded us to start while our children are still very young to train them well.   Ephesians 6: 1-4 states, Children, be obedient to your parents+

 in union with the Lord, for this is righteous. 2 “Honor your father and your mother”+ is the first command with a promise: 3 “That it may go well with you* and you may remain a long time on the earth.” 4 And fathers, do not be irritating your children,+ but go on bringing them up in the discipline+ and admonition of Jehovah.+

Even without knowing the truth, why do we still feel there has to be a God?

           There is a natural, inborn tendency to believe in a higher power, placed there by our creator. He has made everything beautiful* in its time.+ He has even put eternity in their heart; yet mankind will never find out the work that the true God has made from start to finish. (Eccl. 3:11)  Also, creation itself testifies to the glory of God.  That is why even without being taught, the heavens are declaring the glory of God. (Psalm 19:1)

Is it true that most don't want to believe, as an excuse to be disobedient?

         Unfortunately, that may be true of some, for the inspired word does talk of those who are lost, from the foundation of the world; however, that is not for us to judge, so we leave that to the supreme Judge of all the earth.(Rev. 20:1-3)

TO TREAT PROPHECY WITH CONTEMPT! WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?(Sub-title; Have Respect for Jehovah's Authority!)

 1. What is prophecy?

2.  How could someone treat prophecy with contempt?

3.  The word "disdainfully", how does it apply to this subject?

4.  How does this attitude show disrespect for Jehovah's Authority?

                                     What is prophecy?

        Prophecies are basically messages from God!  So, one might ask, why would someone in their right mind have such a feeling towards a message from God?  treating it with contempt?  Several reasons!  They don't like the person delivering the message. Second, they don't appreciate the warning because they don't have any desire to obey the message, and finally, they don't trust the truthfulness of the message. 

       How could someone treat prophecy with contempt?

       1 Thessalonians 5:16-22: Always be rejoicing.+

 17 Pray constantly 18 Give thanks for everything.+ This is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 19 Do not put out the fire of the spirit.+ 20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt.+ 21 Make sure of all things;+ hold fast to what is fine. 22 Abstain from every form of wickedness.  Here we see Paul's admonition to be careful of this matter.  Some examples in the Hebrew scriptures and in the Greek scriptures also took such a stand, for various reasons.  However, the inspired word was always clear!

    The word "disdainfully", how does it apply to this subject?

     The word "disdainfully" originates from the Old French word "desdeignier," meaning "scorn, refuse, or repudiate". "Desdeignier" itself is formed from two parts: "des," meaning "do the opposite of," and "deignier," meaning "treat with respect". Therefore, "disdainfully" essentially means acting with disapproval or contempt, in a proud and domineering manner. (E. G.www.google.com word origin search.)  

Clearly, ones that take such a stand should be extremely 

careful of challenging God's messengers, for they could

 actually be fighters against God.(Acts 5:39)

       How does this attitude show disrespect for Jehovah's Authority? 

Notice Num. 12:3 , and 16:1-3

Now the man Moses was by far the meekest of all the men*+ on the face of the earth.  ...Then Korʹah+ the son of Izʹhar,+ the son of Koʹhath,+ the son of Leʹvi,+ got up together with Daʹthan and A·biʹram the sons of E·liʹab,+ and On the son of Peʹleth, of the sons of Reuʹben.+ 2 They rose up against Moses along with 250 Israelite men, chieftains of the assembly, chosen ones of the congregation, prominent men. 3 So they gathered together against Moses and Aaron and said to them: “We have had enough of you! The whole assembly is holy,+ all of them, and Jehovah is in their midst.+ Why, then, should you exalt yourselves above the congregation of Jehovah?”  We know the results of this confrontation; they were put to death for their opposition. Also, some complained about the Mana God provided to keep them alive until they reached the promised land, until they began to eat the food of that land, calling it "Contemptible Bread".  It's very unwise not to respect any of Jehovah's fine provisions
