Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Understanding That God Created Us In His Image

By Lynn Beard


God created us in his image and likeness because he had felt the loneliness in the world after creating all the other things. He had created the sea creatures, wild animals, separated earth and sky and also the plants. He felt there was something missing in order to make it complete and become habitable for all the other creatures.

The entire theory did not define how God looked like therefore leaving space for discussions or different views of this theory of creation. However the scriptures were written that everyone looks like him therefore giving the believers that hope that he looks like them and he exists in his own way. They follow the teachings written and also keep spreading the gospel.

When Adam and Eve committed a sin, he was angry and this resembled hoe human beings react when angry and sent them to earth and that is when the life started. They were given the rules that could help them live with harmony and peace. This however is never the case because people are always in confrontations and fights with one another and committing sins.

They feel that they control the world and due to their authority and power hence suffering from the superiority complex. They do not understand that all they own is given to them and anytime it could be taken away and remain with nothing. The Bible explains to them that all they have belongs to one Supreme Being who is supposed to be respected.

The strange thing is that God created both without comparing with any other creature hence being creative and perfect in where the features were placed. They turned out to be perfect especially in the functioning. When the scriptures were being written down, the prophets had some spiritual intervention that made them now what to write down.

In the commandments it is written that one should obey only him and no other and hence it clearly shows he is jealous just like human beings. They people like being the best and they do not like competition especially those that have higher achievements. Obeying other gods apart from him led to the destruction of people and animals using the rain and fire this is a sign that he existed.

Many of the occurrences and other uncommon activities that happen in the world are the miraculous ways of him. People when are in problems intercede with him to help in their shortcomings and also than him when they receive blessings in different forms. He is happy when the world is at peace and guards the individuals into doing good always.

God created us in his image is what people know and believe for all the time they are alive. This has led to other theorists being formed to try and distort the creation theory. Scientists have tried to explain it but still do not satisfy and there are criticisms in it hence leaving this one as the only promising and most embraced in the world.
