'Infinity' (April 19, 2012)

By Allan Thomasson

When it comes time for me to go

(For now, my head is bending low),
Where I'll go, I already know:
To Infinty.

What will be there? What shall I see?

How will I feel? What will I be?
My God, my Savior, will greet me:
To eternity.

In God's great habitat, His home,

No one shall ever be alone,
And there, God's seated on His throne:
Permanently.

The beauty man could not describe,

But Jesus' arms are open wide,
I'll be for ever at His side:                                   II Corinthians 15:51-54
In ecstasy.

No sin, no harm, no discontent,

For on the earth, those came and went.
But then, that time, which was well spent
Has fled from me.

For Jesus came to our domain,

Died on that cross His blood did stain.                Isaiah 53:5-6; Luke 23:32-47
And now with Him I shall remain:
For He loves me.

For once I gave my heart to Him,

Believed; He took away my sin,                           Acts 10:43-48
Because I let my Savior in:
He saved me.

Some will not love my Savior dear,

The Bible makes this one thing clear:
In heaven, they will not appear:
Their destiny.

Will you then be among the few

Who will believe my Savior, too?
He will prepare a place for you:                         John 14:1
He did for me.

In Daniel twelve, and in verse two,

The Word describes both me and you,
And millions more of others, too:                       I Thessalonians 4:13-18
We'll rise, you see;

And we for evermore shall be

In our eternal destiny,                                          Revelation 21-7
With God our Savior, lovingly,
So go with me!

But others rising from the sod,

Who did not, through Christ, come to God,
Will, in contempt, by God's own Word,
In torment be.

The wicked (angels, devils, man)

Shall ever be from heaven banned,
In judgment in that fiery strand:                         Revelation 20:10-15
Eternally.

Eternity is everlasting; and to it there shall be no end. And wherever you are, there you shall always be, for it is the destiny you have chosen, by neglect, rejection, or other blameable reasons; for God made it available to you, and to all men everywhere.

Romans 5:8: Here's what God did for me and you, to prove that He loves us:

  8) “But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

And here is His invitation to all souls of man:

John 3:16-18:

16) “For God so loved (every soul in) the world, that He gave His only begotten Son (to be the only acceptable Sacrifice for our sinful souls: Hebrews 10:1-5; Acts 4:12; John 14:6), that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish (as the wicked, having no hope in eternity), but have everlasting life.
17) “For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn (any person in) the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18) “He that believeth in Him is not condemned (any more): but he that believeth not is condemned (still) already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

God has given each person that ever lived the opportunity to repent, and to return to Him, so that we may be the person whom He created us to be, with love, joy, peace, patience, and all the righteousness which He Himself exhibits to all who love Him.

And that is what God is all about: the giving and receiving of love, and fellowship, everyone treating everyone as their equal, without judging, but with compassion and charity, with humility, toward every other person on the earth.

And this is God's pattern for the Church that Jesus built, that we conform to the following admonition, by God, through the commandment of Jesus Christ, by Paul, the apostle:
(Deuteronomy 18:18-19; Matthew 28:18-20)

I Corinthians 1:10: Paul, the apostle, firmly and lovingly, exhorts each believer in this passage:
10) "Now brethren, I beseech you by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing (truth, doctrine, understanding of the word of truth), and that there be no divisions (separation,denominations) among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together (I Corinthians 12:27) in one mind and in one judgment (according to the truth in the 'word of truth', the Christian Bible)."
(Ref: Romans chapter 14; John 13:34-35; John 14:21-24; Deuteronomy 18:18-19)
