For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals; one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other. Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals, for all is vanity.
Ecclesiastes 3:19 (NKJV)
The blitz, the bling, the glamor, the pride, the self righteousness, the subtle hatred, the terrorist, the pervert, the extremist, the superstar, even the faithful... One thing levels all at this side of things. They are all one breath away from this world. Why should man now get carried away by the passing pleasures, glamor, hate, joy, pain, success and struggles of this world. Nothing in life has ever been permanent. As the preacher states it, one dies, so dies the other, no one is exempt.
Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.
1 Corinthians 10:12 (NKJV)
The saved ought not get caught up in these distractions lest they fall into the trap and scheme of the world. All is vanity.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
Mark 8:36 (NIV)
A life without Christ is what the heading above says. Pray that all souls come to repentance before the final curtain is drawn.
Be encouraged,
Afolabi
