In the beginning God spoke His powerful Word (the holy Scriptures) into the hearts and minds of men and women, but back then the culture was that men learned a trade, protected the home and recorded (wrote) what was going on. Women cooked, did weavings, dyed fabrics. kept the home, bore children, bought produce. This is all clear if one reads the Bible. I have a Chronological Bible where everything that God inspired men to write is in the order that things happened - it can be bought on Amazon. The Word of God given to men, clearly states in John 3:16 this: “For God so loved the world, that He sent His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but will have eternal life”. In the Bible and in world history, God has kept every promise so we should and must trust Him and 100% believe in and love His Son with all our heart, mind and soul. That is why during the dying process, we can KNOW total peace bc we KNOW we will be in heaven after we die. By the way, the reason humans die is explained in the first book of the Bible -Genesis - when Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the perfect sinless, garden He had made for them called the Garden of Eden. I am not a pastor or preacher. I’m just blessed to have had parents and grandparents who taught me about Jesus being The Way, The Truth and The Life, and that no one comes to God except thru Jesus, His Son. I urge everyone to start with Colossians in the 2nd half of the Bible and read it. Then read the book of John also in the New Testament. Believe me you will be so glad you did!!! We all know that our earth is having a hard time these days bc of we humans - global warming, pollution, hatred, lust for money and power, wars. We can all see that God knew in His perfect wisdom and perfect love for us all, that we need to be saved from ourselves, past, present and future. So He sent Himself as a baby, named Jesus, called His Son (bc we could identify with what the word son means), into the world so we could see Him hear Him touch Him listen to Him be changed by Him, until sinful man killed Him at age 33, but prior to that time, Jesus had shown us God’s power given us the words of John 3:16 as directions to eternal life with Him forever!! No other religion on earth has a Savior.
Believers can look forward to an eternity of being with loved ones, God and Jesus! No sin, no sickness, no sorrow or tears, no worries, no fighting, etc. if we talk to God daily and listen for His voice in our hearts and minds, our peace and joy will know no boundaries!
