Hope In Christ

I corinthians 15:19 - And if being a Christian is of value to us only now in this life, we are the most miserable of creatures. (paraphrased)

In so many people, so many beliefs, so many are confused, so many are still searching, so many they don't mind, and so many has the assurance in whom they believed.

Sad to say that most of the brightest people do not believe that there is a God who created the heavens and the earth and all the creatures within that includes us human being, with all the planets that we knew and humans did reach and explore.

I just want to discuss what I believed, my personal view in reading my Bible. I believed that we are created in God's image and that supposed to be we'll live forever with God without hardship.

Death came into the world because of what Adam did. Everyone dies because all of us are related to Adam, being members of his sinful race, and wherever there is sin, death results.

I believed in the amazing grace of God, what He's done. The first man Adam did sin and brought death, but another man the CHRIST paid the price of death so that we shall live.

The fact that christ did actually rise from the dead, and has become the first of millions who will come back to life again some day. This is the hope I have as Christian not only in this world.

I Cor. 15:53 - For our earthly bodies, the ones we have now that can die, must be transormed into heavenly bodies that cannot perish but will live forever.

So where will you spend eternity?  The sting of sin that causes death will all be gone; and the law, which reveals our sins, will no longer our judge. Thank God. He who makes us victorious through Jesus Christ our Lord!

Christian believers since our future victory is sure, be strong and steady, always abounding in the Lord's work, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever wasted as it would be if there were no ressurection.

Impressions About Death

People has different reactions when it comes to this topic. And it's different story if it is happening to the family.  Almost in all kinds of races death is not an easy subject to talk about.

Our attitude or impression about death are affected by many factors.  In my experience  my fathers death was really a great loss because he is our provider everybody in the family were confuse that time it's really painful.  Not so much in lossing him spiritually coz we believed one day we'll see each other again.  Though that hope of seeing each other someday, sometimes covered with hurt and loneliness, in this emotion is different, it happen in the death of my beloved mother. 

There are how-ever some universal impressions that dying and death usually brings out:

FEAR of losing a loved one, fear of dying alone, fear of dying in pain, fear of leaving a family, fear of dying itself, fear of all expenses that will follow and etc.

To some dying or death brings ANGER for many reasons.  So soon, so cruel, so unfair.  Sometimes accused of being at fault just like "I told her to go to the doctor", "why he didn't stop drinking" and so forth.

GUILT may caused by many things.  "It was my fault she fell down, why I didn't stay with her", "I'd wished someone dead then it happen so it's my fault" and so on.

The  sense of life that is passing so quickly  or  life was so short enough for the one who died.  Loveone can really feel the GRIEF. 

There are some  people that are brave enough to acknowledge their feelings, can easily  express what's in their heart. But most people their braveness was to hide their emotions anyway it will just pass and after all, life must go on. 

We knew these submerged emotions will strongly affect how a person deal with loved ones who are dying.  In this case it's a great help if one person can talk about having a clergy to help and it's an effective way to understand these kind of feeling or emotions.

There might be more impression I haven't mention here but we can see the over view of the universal feelings when it comes to someone's passing away.
