Have you ever imagined of a world without sin? A world with no lying, no corruption, systems running smoothly with no single cent disappearing, no hatred, no any kind of evil? That is how the world was in the beginning when God created it.

Sin entered into the world through the disobedience of the word of God by one man (Romans 5:17). Sin activated the power of death and so man had to die so that the word of God would surely come to pass.

Therefore, the world was meant to be a perfect place to live but the devil who is always roaming around looking for people to devour deceived man to sin and death’s power was activated; making the world corrupted. Therefore, because sin existed in man, he eventually had to die; for the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23).
However, all this was reversed when Jesus came into the earth. The Bible says for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).

God prepared a body for Jesus so that He would come and die as man to pay the debt of sin so that death would no longer have power over man. Therefore, anyone who believes in Jesus shall surely live again upon death because death will not have the power to hold him/her back or to sustain him/her to itself.

They say the most important day in a man’s life is when he discovers why he was born. If this statement was more specific on the reason to be born then it would have been way better according to me. There is only one reason as to why we were born; to defeat this world and run the race of eternal life. Therefore, it is important that the human race recognize that the most important day of a man is the day he/she gets born again. For the first birth that comes is the natural one when one is born of a woman but the second one is from the spirit without which no man can enter the Kingdom of God (John 3:3-7).

So, the day man believed in Jesus that He paid the debt of sin through His blood hence making him no longer a sinner, is the day he was born again and his name written in heaven as one of those who will live again.
This is where we get the sense of Jesus’ question; “for what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul” (Mark 8:36). For man was never created to achieve anything that is of this world but to fight the good fight of faith and thus overcome death and live again eternally.

The Bible says that Jesus will surely come again but that time not to deal with sin but to take with
Him all those who believed and are waiting for Him (Hebrews 9:28). We have to understand that in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God (John 1:1). One thing that God cannot violate is His word because the word is God Himself so everything that He says cannot return to his mouth void; it must accomplish that which it was sent to do. His word is so powerful, it upholds the whole universe (Hebrews1:2).

Jesus said “in my father’s house there are many mansions, I am going to prepare a place for you and if it were not so I would have told you” (John 14:2).
The bible says that what no ear has heard nor no eye has seen is what God has prepared for those who love Him (1 Corinthians 2:9).

No one has an idea of that place, but it is a true place and will one day surely come to be and God Himself will live with His people there (Revelation 21:3).
