Where to Start? Where to Start?

Not that I have to state it, life is an extremely broad subject. When explaining things I usually start somewhere in the middle and work my way to the end. However that is not good rhetorical style and it can make it confusing to follow. I guess I am going to have to clean up my act and try harder.

Most of us live 70 or 80 years but in all that time we have not given an hour’s thought as to what life is all about! Maybe the subject is just too hard to ponder but the consequences of not doing it are mind boggling.

Usually something catastrophic happens to us and we go into our deep questioning mode “Why did this happen to me?” “Why did this happen to me??” “Why did this happen to me???”. This goes on for whatever period of time with no answer ever coming so we stop asking and go on with our lives.

“Now that I’m old and getting ready to go” and have been around the block about as many as I can, I thought I should try to pass along some of the things I know that would be important to Youes.

Whether or not there is a God is the most central question in life. Some of us believe there is a God but many don’t. Can we prove that God exists – NO. Will we ever be able to prove that God exists – NO. Can we prove that he doesn’t exist – NO. But this is where our reason leads us into a trap. If we cannot see God, hear God, feel God then he therefore does not exist.

If I were to ask most Western people where God is they would respond “in heaven” whether or not they actually believe in God. Most Christians believe that God is in heaven. To end the attempt to champion both sides of the question of God I believe that God does exits and abides in heaven.

Many things though can be deduced from the fact that God is in heaven which is not delved into by Christians. Where is heaven? Well it certainly is not here where we live. Why not? Because he wants a separation between us and him. If God lived in Jersey City NJ anybody who wanted to prove he existed could visit him.

If God wanted to manifest that he exists even he doesn’t want to come here he could pay to have a plane drag his name or message across the sky.

We ALL are playing a forever game whether we realize it or not.
We thoughtlessly run out the clock of this life whether or not we care. Tick Tock Tick Tock.
Most of us view this life as a movie and if anything follows – as the movie credits.
That is why we are not as concerned with what’s coming, because the credits are never important. But actually this life is the just the trailer and what
comes after is the actual movie. The function of the trailer is to get us to the movie. “Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. And this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.”

    The VERY Begining

    The only definitive word on life is the Bible. One of the most basic questions is where did God come from?
    God states “that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.” Whether the process that formed God was so unique that it cannot be repeated or that God now will not allow it to happen again.

    Then God created the heavenly host (creatures) which “cannot be numbered”. There are no females in heaven (yeah I know this sets you back) so when God creates most of the heavenly beings they all are therefore sons of God. The first being God created was his son who was to be called Jesus when became flesh. Jesus was however created specially as the only BEGOTTEN son of God.

    Jesus was called the bright and morning star and sang with Lucifer (Satan) in heaven.

    This passage from Hebrews is the definitive description of Jesus:

    “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers (Israelites) by the prophets, 
    Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 
    Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 
    Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. 
    For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? 
    And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. 
    And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 
    But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. 
    Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 
    And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: 
    They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; 
    And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. 
    But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 
    Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?”

    While interpreting the Bible there are many factors that come into play. There are lines that would suggest a particular interpretation but you should search all scripture about that topic to judge whether it is correct or not. “But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken”. This would indicate that you cannot just grab a biblical passage and run with it. You must try to determine if there other places in scripture that shed light on that topic. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”.

    There are many mainline tenets of Christianity that have violated the need for scriptural support. This is one reason I am writing this teaching. Some tenets make it very difficult for those outside of Christianity to make sense of them. I will attempt to divulge these tenets.
