When
challenges are turning to a crisis and things are going berserk, what is one
supposed to infer from all of this? Is there a way of escape? If yes, how long
one has to wait? These questions are all too familiar, especially in the
spiritual, logical and philosophical realm that inundates our mind. Most
often in a crisis we are sustained by “Hope” to a larger extent,
but then the actual problem and the struggle is to handle time, especially when
and how long before we all come back to normalcy?
In
the Bible it tells that the even creation is struggling to find solutions
to many challenges it is facing. “For we know that the whole creation
has been groaning together with labor pains until now.” (Bible). Hold on!
Why is all of creation, the nature and entire universe struggling? Have you
thought about it? Because of man’s disobedience and sin, there is an increase
in rebellion and debauchery which has a capacity to condemn all of us to
punishment and death. Even the nature, the entire creation was seriously
affected by human beings. The whole creation groans with labor
pain because it is struggling as to how it is supposed to behave. It
is we who have tampered with the freedom of choice but the poor creation is
bearing the brunt.
God
gave us the right to choose despite knowing that we would probably make
the wrong choice. The fact that God didn’t create a species of robots that had
to obey Him blindly underscores the awesome privilege and responsibility we
have for making choices.
All
religion has a philosophy to offer salvation. Basically, demanding to work out
our own redemption of soul through visiting to so called holy places, temples,
mosques, Churches and many other shrines that have recently gained prominence.
Now what? When all the so-called holy places and famous shrines are shut down
and the mediators (priest) or whoever you name, the godmen of any religion have
gone to hibernation mode in order to protect themselves from this deadly virus,
how does then one reach God and find help? It's a point to ponder!
In the Bible it says we cannot work out our own salvation, nor does our good works will
lead towards the same. Therefore, God in the form of man had to come to this
earth and die for our sins in the cross and resurrected which is historically
recorded and proved by all science. Going to Church or any holy place is not
going to deliver our soul and give redemption. It is when we believe and accept
the salvation offered to us will make all the difference.
The Bible is all
about prophecies, which have been fulfilled and more importantly all
that is supposed to take place as part of the end days and it also records that
Jesus is going to come back again for all those who are redeemed by faith. The
concept of Heaven and Hell, which is very conspicuous in the book tells us
that we will spend our eternity with God. In all over the world People are
directing their attention towards God and trying to find what is important for
their soul.
