Are we alone?

Heb 2:1-18. There are so many False ideas and stories floating around about Heaven and how it will be there. Certain theologians believe and preach that families and friends would not recognise each other, in Heaven, they will be "new" creatures, no memories, no identity. How this Buddhistic believe of Heaven crept into Christianity is anybody's guess. Revelation 22:1-5 Ephesians 4:17-19

Some of the well known scientists proclaim that NO life can exist on any other planet in this Universe, so does some theologian professors. What about the place called Heaven? If JESUS is in a physical resurrected body that could eat after HIS resurrection , how can HE survive where HE is? Luke 24:30-43

Most laymen believe that planets in other galaxies are inhabited by monstrous beings--yet, GOD fashioned Man in HIS Image and Likeness. Sin created a monster inside Sinful man that only JESUS can transform and change into a righteous being.  1 John 1:9

Space horror movies were invented and many were brainwashed into believing that those beings exist. After all, they draw huge crowds and more money.

Are we alone In this Universe of over 1 000 million galaxies that can be photographed by the Palomar 200 inch reflector?

 Our own galaxy contain 100 000 million stars (suns) and then it is very small compared to the Andromeda Galaxy. The most distant galaxies so far measured are more than 5 000 million light years away. One light year is 5 880 000 000 000 miles! WOW! What a distance, how vast the Universe! Yet, these earthly people, stranded on Earth, speculate and even preach that we are alone? HOW TERRIBLE! Does it not frighten you, to think that only on this little planet there is life? No wonder people feel so insecure and inferior!

Recently statements were altered by many scientists, there is a possibility, that 10% of the outer planets may have life, life in a lower form or much more advanced than on the Earth! Three cheers to them! They did not just speculate--they sat down and took the time to calculate and plotted the star charts and then realised:

 WE ARE NOT ALONE!

GOD in his infinite wisdom created the Heavens and the Earth. The Holy Scriptures speak or write only of Earth, because it concerns only those on Earth. The teachings are for humans on Earth and not for the Universe.

Never mind what they say, Look up to the stars, don't be despondent, be full of cheer, joy and know that what you see up there, is the vast domain, the Kingdom of GOD, waiting, impatiently waiting to receive YOU, the SONS and DAUGHTERS of the MOST HIGH, The LIVING GOD. Galatians 4:1-7

To the scientists and theologians it is and remains, unknown territory. The scientists can only presume, like the evolution theories, and the theologians are still asleep in dogmatics. Very presumptuous in their efforts to limit and bring GOD down to the human levels. GOD is still creator and sustainer of all, and who are they to place certain limitations on HIS creative abilities?

In a certain way they are right, because this planet Earth is unique, and so are YOU, everyone of YOU! In this Universe YOU are the only ones who lived in sin, godless and lost. You are the only ones to receive a "mind-blowing" promise from GOD Himself, that you are given the Power to become Sons and Daughters of GOD ALMIGHTY! John 1:12+13 , John 3:16

So you feel strongly about the fact that although we can see only a few stars on a clear night with the naked eye and that the billions and billions of starts we cannot even see, are just there for decorative purposes and need to exist for life on this earth to be possible?

All I can say about that is: When the earth was empty and void and not inhabited, God said: He did not create it to be empty ,but to be inhabited (Is 45:18).  Why would God reach out to one small and empty planet and do nothing about the others?

The inhabitants of this Planet Earth though, are UNIQUE, you CAN through obedience become Sons and Daughters of the LIVING GOD! A command remains a command and not an option or suggestion. GOD'S commands were never revoked and still remain in power. If you are a worker and your boss tells you to do something, and you neglect to do it, what are the results? Do you find all kinds of excuses to cover-up your slackness? A soldier always follow commands to the letter and if he slips up, must suffer the consequences! Try to fight a war with soldiers we are dis-obedient and loose the war.

 

In this case, IGNORANCE is no excuse! YOU were Given a handbook of commands to follow, no one travels on Life's Highway without his or her Roadmap. READ YOURS! It is important to know the way to take or you miss-out on a lot.

GOD'S COMMAND is: Repent and be baptised and you will receive the HOLY SPIRIT. Acts 2:1-4, 38+39

1. REPENT:

Be converted, changed, through accepting JESUS CHRIST as your Personal Saviour and let HIS BLOOD cleanse you from all Sin and Unrighteousness and follow HIM.

2. BAPTISM:

After repentance, the water baptism, the 'buried in CHRIST', symbol of burial with CHRIST and a new Person. Baptism is described in many ways as: burial, forgiveness of sins, putting on the new man, rebirth, fulfilling GOD'S Righteousness, etc..

3. HOLY SPIRIT:

Received at Conversion and can also become active IN and THROUGH YOU as is written in 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 Read it!

(The Speaking in Tongues is also part of the Spiritual Gifts. To be able to work for GOD you must have the Gifts of the Spirit. The latter part is a New experience, wonderful and comforting.)

The three most important Commands for YOU to inherit your prize, a place of your own, as one of GOD'S predestinated Sons and Daughters. Everyone of you are predestinated, but not all are obedient to HIS Commands. Some never even come to repentance! Matthew 11: 27-30

YOU can inherit either ONE of them.

The Choice is YOURS, alone, and without LOVE you can loose both!

LOVE is the Ultimate aspect required for both Kingdoms.

LOVE as is written of in the Scriptures.

 Read 1 Corinthians 13:1-13
