"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad."
2 CORINTHIANS 5:10
The world is a dark place - full of sin, confusion, ignorance - people are misguided - in blindness and unwillingness to walk in the light. The Lord has given people over to what they desire the most. Sadly - few have picked Jesus in entirety. We are to be beams of light for God - to give his light - the light of Jesus in us.
People are not meant to be their own light - flickering - re-inventing - re-shaping yourself into the worlds relevancy. In Christ you are always relevant - made perfect in his image - and his spirit. Give yourself now to Jesus - such that he may use you for his divine eternity.
It is easy to be distracted and pulled away from the calling of the Lord. Just as God is a spirit and remains unseen - so is Satan and his evil team of spirits - who desire nothing except to mask bad in good to pull as many away from God as possible. This is the point of life - to remain in Christ - in this decaying world - seeking his will in you before the worlds demands and controls over you.
Make no mistake - the unseen world in which the arena of life plays out - is the battlefield for souls. We - as humans are given free-choice from within as to who we worship and call the God of our Lives. King Jesus is the only true God - the only forgiver of sin - and the only way to heaven. Satan is evil and destructive - but is a master of manipulation so you must keep on guard as to not be persuaded into following him. Self-praise and celebrity also leads to death - as you cannot honor God and yourself at the same time. So seek not fame - but seek Christ in you so others will see him - turn from their sinful ways and choose a new life.
Jesus is the new life and the only life that sets you free and allows us to enter heaven. The spirit never dies - the body passes away - the eternal resting place of the spirit that lives inside you is chosen by you by the manner in which you live and the choices for which you make.
"And war broke out in heaven; Michael and his angels fought against the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back, but they were defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. The great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him." Revelation 12:7-9
"Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons..." 1 Timothy 4:1
"What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell." Matthew 10:27-28
