The Source

I had a conversation today with someone who believes that, after death one of two things happens: if you have not finished "all that you're supposed to accomplish," you go "back into the void to wait for a new body" and be reincarnated; if you have accomplished everything, you "move on to a new plane--that's heaven." Sounds ridiculous, huh? Of course--because it IS ridiculous. It's ridiculous any time we come up with "beliefs" based on our own authority. I'm so grateful that God saw fit to give us everything we need to know about Himself and our relationship with Him. The Bible is (with the obvious exception of Christ Himself) the greatest gift man has ever been given. Don't take for granted the fact that you have in your possession the inspired, inerrant Word of God. Because of that you can KNOW the answers to all of life's difficult questions without having to make them up on your own.
