The Greatest Hope Is Death

The Apostle Paul said it best: "To live is Christ, to die is gain." There is no greater hope for a Christian than death. Though that sounds like a complete paradox, it is nonetheless 100% true. He himself said: "In my Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so I would have told you." So not only does Christ guarantee us a new house, but he says in effect-of course you have a home in my house in heaven. I say think of your greatest day on earth and multiply that by maybe 1 billion and you'll have not even equaled your first day in heaven. If you think Adam and Eve in the garden was something to marvel over, and I most certainly do, could you even begin to imagine, as our Lord says: "All that God has prepared for them that love Him." Do you love God today and His son Jesus? If not simply confess right now that you love him, raise your hands and pray with me-Dear God, forgive me of my sins, I love you, I make you the Lord of my life and thank you for your death on the cross. I love you. Amen." ~Donnie Alexander
