The resurrection of Jesus Christ makes it clear that it is wise for us to understand that human death is a temporary, transitional situation, and not a permanent state of being. We are assured of this because Jesus Christ Himself rose physically from the dead. And we will as well.

This is why a man works; we are all going to leave the things of this life behind, but we want our sons to be good husbands and our daughters and the grandchildren they bring us to have the proper care of a good husband.

If we find ourselves in a difficult situation that feel that we cannot share with our spouses, our reluctance to share brings dissension to the marriage, because intimacy, be it emotional, psychological and physical, should be the exclusive venue of husband and wife.

God’s teaching in Genesis 2:18 is that women are meant to be men’s helpers. And, intuitively obvious from the verse is that assertion that God’s purpose for creating women is to help men to not be lonely.

We are here because Jesus loved us and gave Himself for us, and also because someone that we don’t know loved us and gave themselves for us.

All of us are sinners, and we have all earned eternal suffering for our sins in Hell. But just as God made a way for the Israelites in Egypt, God has made a way for us.

The Holy Spirit is the intelligence of God that is always looking for ways to bring life, meaning reconciliation, to man from God. Those filled with the Spirit of God focus on salvation and reconciliation, just as Jesus brought salvation to reconcile us to God, not condemnation to the world for sin.

He that chooses the things of the world over the things of God will show his hatred for God once God denies him something that he wants, just as a spoiled child throws a temper tantrum when he does not get his way. But that is where discipline comes in. Just as Jesus chose to make the ultimate sacrifice for us, we can choose to serve God and not be spoiled children.
