Let's be honest, if you're reading my blog and you are a non believer, you're thinking..."Bible thumping, goody goody, Jesus Freak." I've been called worse. I have a question for you. Before I ask it, I want you to know that I'm not judging you. I know that not all people will become believers, that not all will come to know God, that some people will mock Him, and me. It is my job to offer you what I know and love most, my God. Whether you take it or not is not going to affect me and my relationship with my Lord. Christians will sometimes browbeat non believers to get them to come to Christ when, in fact, a majority of the time, it does the opposite. It's the infamous "If being a Christian means being like you... no thanks." I'm a Christian. I love God more than anyone or anything in my life. I'm perfectly comfortable saying that. Now for my question. If the two choices for death are being "worm bait" and having a life afterward with a loving God... why would you choose nothing? I'm not afraid to die. God has promised me wonderful things, and that beats out nothing. I'll let you in on a little secret. I'm afraid of the dark. Just a little but I don't want to die and be buried in the dark. I want to die and then live again in the light. In the glorious Light that is my Savior. If I didn't believe, I'd be afraid to die. I'm not losing anything by being a Christian. I'm gaining so much. I KNOW God is real. I'd be so afraid if all I had to look forward to is the dark. I'm not brow beating, I'm not judging, I'm asking... Why choose nothing, when you can have Everything?
