Wake Up to Reality!
The real Truth is that you have to be re-born literally to see the Kingdom of Heaven — just like Jesus said. It’s called “kingdom of God” in the Gospels because God is supposed to be its king.
If you think that when you die you’ll just go to Heaven and be there for ever and ever and you’ll be able to leave this poor ol’ world behind, you’re sadly mistaken! You’ll be coming back to Earth after a certain time, usually whether you want to or not — unless you’re one of those who have “finished school” and successfully passed all your grades. But until then, you’ll be coming back to the same world you left behind — if not worse!
So, this is the Message: Make the World a Better Place
Since you have to come back to this Earth again it would be a good idea to do everything you can to make it a better place to come back to. Even if you don’t believe you’ll be coming back here, don’t forget you’ll be leaving this place for your sons and daughters and their children. If you leave this place to get worse, you may have to live with a worse place in even worse conditions than there were when you left it… if you HAVE to come back here!
There is this situation called “Climate Change” that many of you deny as being real. Just imagine a good part of the Earth’s dry land covered in water and much fewer places that are livable, and of that much of this beautiful Earth has been burnt up by wild fires, much wild-life has become extinct. Many people have been forced to live underground or in other miserable places to live while food and drinkable water is scarce. It may become “Hell on Earth” — literally!
We live in an age where there are more ultra-rich people than ever, and there are millions of people dying of hunger and for the lack of clean drinking water, and in an age where technology is flourishing there are millions of people dying of curable diseases and the people of the world lack electrical energy and fuel.
Food, electrical energy and life-saving medicines are priced extremely high in order to make a very small percentage of the world’s population rich — so rich that they could never spend all the money they have in many lifetimes. Not to speak of the fact that they won’t be able to take a “red cent” of it to the grave with them, much less spend it.
The Earth’s resources are being squandered in stupid, useless, senseless wars that kill and maim millions of innocent Human beings not to mention animals. If you think about it, we are all brothers and sisters living on a beautiful planet God created for us to enjoy and learn all the lessons we are here to learn. But hate, greed and selfishness is destroying it for all of us.
So, think about the world you will necessarily be coming back to. Think about and do something about how you can make this planet a better place to leave to your children and grandchildren and for you yourself to come back to in the near future. Remember, you may be growing up here again as a child and learning everything from scratch. Imagine what kind of world you would like to grow up in — because you may definitely be growing up in the world that it will have become!
