Man is seeking the supernatural. Desiring to be extra-terrestrial. Seeking for life after death. Seeking through science and science - fiction the keys to living forever in a supernatural existence!
What we are seeking is eternal life. Life that never ends. The solution to death. Thus in science -- stem cell research, cloning, cryogenics and in science -fiction, x-men, mutants, superman and all the superheroes. And on the dark side of our imagination --vampires, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and so many other characters. And through them we live out our desires for the quest for eternal life!
Our fascination with life after death and for powers beyond our natural abilities is the result of our eternal connection with a supernatural, eternal Creator.
What man is really searching for is that which he lost, the power to be a son of God! We did not come from apes. But were made in the image and likeness of God. Genesis 1:27:
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
And to return to being sons or off springs of God is what we are truly seeking. But through the wrong means which will ultimately bring us to death and destruction!
Science and theatre offers us their paths in our quest for eternity. But John an apostle of Jesus Christ, the Son of God reveals to us the only true path to eternal life:
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 1:12 (Green is my emphasis)
Through Jesus Christ, we have been given the power or ability to become sons of God! And it is through believing in him that this power has been extended to us by God!
If you will repent of your sins and ask for his forgiveness, he will make you a son of God. It is through Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God that we also become sons God, by believing on his name!
Repent of your sins, and tell Jesus you believe and accept what he did for you on the Cross by dying for your sins so that you won't have to! You too will be born again and become a son of God! Don't put it off...
Do it today!
