God is the loving ruler of the world and he made the world. He made us rulers of the world under Him. But is that the way it is now? No! We all reject God, by trying to run life our own way without Him. We believe that we are better ruler than God, that we can live without Him. But we fail to rule ourselves or society or the world. So what will God do about our rebellion? God won't let us rebel forever. God's punishment of rebellion is death and judgement. God's justice sounds hard, but.. cos of His love for us, God sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, into the world. Jesus is a perfect and holy man who always lived under God's rule. He was the One, sent down to die, in our place taking our punishment and brought us forgiveness. But that's not all. On the 3rd day, God raised Jesus to life again, as the ruler of the world. Jesus has conquered death, and now gives new life, and will return to judge.
This brings us to 2 different scenarios. The first one is to continue to rebel against God, to run life our own way. But this will only result in death and judgement. The other alternative is to submit our lifes to Jesus, acknowledging Him as ruler of our lifes. Relying of His death and resurrection. This will bring us forgiveness from God and eternal life. Comparing the 2 choices, isn't the 2nd choice, so obviously the better choice. So be smart and make the right choice NOW!
