Zeitgeist
The spirit of the times. Death apparently is in vogue with the political liberal elites in America. Death by suicide, murder, by individuals, by organizations and by governments. Death to oneself and Death to others. Death to America and death for death's sake. Death in entertainment and in movies is celebrated and envisioned as a voyueristic journey or to be commended as a way of liberation. Death is to be embraced and welcomed for there is no God. Let us drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die. And so it is with the Blue-State generation of Americans as well as the multitude of peoples throughout the world. It is a global phenomena that will reap its deadly reward to them that see death as their friend or simply as a "normal" process.
As an Ambassador in Christ, I have to say that death is really abnormal. We were not designed to die, however, due to CHOICES made in the past death is now an intregral part of our daily lives. My God is a living God and it is not his desire that we should die physically or spiritually. Hence, he sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to die only ONCE on the Cross and then rise to life eternal three days later and all that is required of us is to simply look back to that event in time and in a non-meritorious act of faith in the object of our salvation from death, both physical and spiritual, believe in him which is Christ the Lord.
The wonderful thing about God is that he allows free-will to run its course. The freedom to make choices on behalf of truth and integrity or on behalf of relative good and evil. If there were no freedom of will then there would be no mankind. We were made in the image of God who himself has free-will and is free to give and to take life itself. You are responsible for your actions, even if man does not hold you accountable. God, who is eternal and never dies, will hold you accountable for your decisions. And even in death, there is no escape from the wrath of God. For God himself will resurrect you from your grave sometime in the future to judge you according to your decisions you made while physically alive. Do you doubt my words?
If death is want you want, then death you shall have. Behold! The majesty and terror of God!
