Human Beings

Human Beings
Some one has said,
“Our bodies are formed from the dust of the earth; our souls are of the essence of God. We alone can look at a physical world and see spiritual life and beauty.”
Martin Luther King jr. said,
“Then, finally, help us to realize that man was created to shine like stars and live on through all eternity.”
Albert Einstein said,
“Human beings vegetables  or cosmic dust. We all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible player.”
                                             Albert Einstein.
I believe the dance is that of life and the player of the tune is God.
I have never been able to buy into the theory that life ends when the body dies. I have always believed that the essence that makes us human, our Soul will live on throughout eternity. Every culture that has ever existed, and the majority of people that have ever lived all have believed in an afterlife. Have believed in a God.
The question to me has always been where will you spend eternity. Will it be with God or apart from God.
As a Christian I believe Jesus said two important things,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” 
                                                                              John 3:16-18
“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” 
John 14:6
I believe God gives us a Choice. To accept Him or reject him the choice is yours. There is no in between.
C. S. Lewis said of Jesus,
“I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.” 
                                                                                                             C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity.
So basically Lewis is saying. If you accept Jesus as the Son of God, then you must accept His teachings. If so you in order to get to heaven you must accept Him into your life as Lord and Saviour.
Please think about it.
