God says that ALL have sinned. So, I guess that includes me... and you.
The WAGES we (you & I ) earned for that 'sin' is... DEATH.
But, the devil would have us, (you & I ) not to worry!
The devil is sorely concerned about us, that we not be 'deceived'.. (yeah, right!)
He doesn't want us to think the worst!
He wants us to think that death, is not really DEATH!!
He wants us to think that death, is really only SEPERATION!
(as if that makes God look better)
Every sun-day, he and his 'ministers' preach that same old message... 'that Old Time Religion'...
That message is exactly what he preached to Eve in the Garden...
"You Shall Not Surely Die"
Yes, the devil wants you to BELIEVE HIM, and to reject what GOD ALMIGHTY said!
God said, "You SHALL surely die"!
The serpent says, "Ye Shall Not Surely Die"
Hmmm.... which one should I believe?? hmmm....
God >>"You shall surely die"
Well, ok, since that is a VERY CLEAR STATEMENT, and hard to misunderstand, the devil decided to muddy the waters... he tinkered with the DEFINITION of DEATH!
devil>>"Immortal Souls can't die! Everyone has an immortal soul."
That's the modern day message!!! And, if you are a modern day Christian, you've probably lived your life believing that very thing!
Well, it's time you heard the truth!!
NO ONE HAS AN IMMORTAL SOUL!
There is no such thing! If there WERE such a thing, then the Bible would speak of it. It doesn't. However, satan and his ministers DO preach certain verses that THEY SAY are sufficient to convince us that there is an immortal soul, and that death isn't really death. THEY SAY that these 'certain verses' speak of eternal torment, and eternal life in an ever-burning hell fire. They SAY.. they say.. they SAY!
Well, it isn't true!
Eternal life would be REQUIRED in order to suffer for all eternity, and that would make 'Eternal life' a CURSE, not a blessing and certainly not a 'GIFT'. Besides, the soul is NOT IMMORTAL!
The BIBLE states clearly that "this MORTAL must put on immortality!
Of course, if you'd rather believe your preacher... ??
Immortality! that means 'not subject to, death'...
Immortality is IMMUNITY to death! We don't have that immunity, we are MORTAL! Why, oh why is it so hard to BELIEVE GOD?
