THE EARTHLY HOUSE

For we know that if the tent which is our earthly home is destroyed, we have from God a building, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens – II Cor. 5:1

Our habitation in this world is time-bound. That means you cannot over-stay your time here on here.  The world is merely a market place. At your departure from the face of the earth, know that you are accountable to God. There is no exemption in rendering your account of stewardship to God, but you can be exempted from damnation if your report reads, “Lifestyle of holiness and righteousness”.

The body with which you are clothed is an earthly house that will decay. But if you are on the Lord’s side, at your departure from this life, your body will be transformed from corruptible to incorruptible. While the wicked will be turned into hell to face eternal damnation because they damned the consequence of living a life of sin and destructive pleasure, you will escape the wrath and danger of hell.

Apostle Paul said, “Behold I show a mystery, we shall not all die but we shall all be changed” (I Cor. 15: 51). This signifies that after a believer puts off this earthly body of clay, a new garment that is incorruptible awaits him in heaven. He will be given a glorious body that thirsts and pants after fellowship and communion with God. It’s a body that is absolutely dead to sin. How are you living your life? Will your body be transformed into a glorious body if Christ were to come today? Examine yourself. May you not miss out on the day of rapture in Jesus name. Amen
