--- Are You Alive? ---
Are you sure?
Will you survive Armageddon?

"What a silly question", most will respond, "of course I am 'alive'! I am able to breath and move about and form an answer to your question. That's having life"... (Acts 17:28 of 22-28)

Please try not to think about or consider what I believe about this matter, or even what you yourself think. Let's try and consider what יהוה knows about us, and, what He has judged about whether we are alive; possibly even "because" of, or at least influenced by, our considering these scriptures together. [That is to say: Because of Him coming to know and even judging whether we are alive based in part on our conversation about our faith in Him.] (Mal 3:16-4:3)
[יהוה is the Bible given Name of the true God of Creation... (Exo 31:18)]

The only thing that will give these words meaning, and certainly real value, is if we can consider these referenced scriptures even while sharing an accepted knowledge [shared faith] that we are blessed to have a God and Creator who is good, and, that He is One who is becoming the rewarder of those truly seeking him. (Heb 11:6; 2 Chron 16:9) So... If you believe God is good, the revelation of the established Kingdom of Christ exposed in these scriptures is the most important thing you could ever hear... (Mat 13:44) To make himself known to us, our loving Father sent his own son to help, (Mat 11:25-30; John 18:37) at great cost to them both. In the two thousand years since Jesus arrived, God has given mankind only one command: "Listen to my Son." (Mat 17:5) Sharing a faith there is a God who good and is helping all those righteously inclined, (Luke 2:13-14) then, would you join me in considering what Jesus Christ said about whether you and I are alive? That's what's important, right?

Jesus and the Apostles he personally taught (Mark 3:13-15) told us most people who are physically alive are actually dead in their trespasses and sins. (Eph 2:1-9) They still respirate and make noise...
[After listening to a speech by Adolph Hitler, a news reporter said of him, "there is no man, there is just the noise that he makes". Without maybe understanding, the reporter seems to have realized Hitler was not really alive! He was just a windbag of lies, one son among the seed of Satan. All liars are! (John 8:44-45; 2 Cor 11:14; Rev 21:8)]
...but they have no hope beyond the grave, and will soon be dead; unless... (Eph 2:12 of 11-22) Jesus said if we don't make changes, we will go on to finally and completely die in our sins. (John 8:24) He said if we do make changes, we can step out of that sentence of death into life. (John 5:24) God further taught if we do make changes, so as to be viewed as righteous in his eyes, we will be gloriously happy (John 15:11) and will shine as illuminators in the Kingdom of His Son. (Mat 13:36-44) Do you begin to see why I would ask if you are alive? Actually, I suppose rather than ask if you are alive, I might ask if you are gloriously happy and shinning as an illuminator in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ? (Mat 13:43) Have you "bought the field" of truth? (Mat 13:44) Do you even know what those questions mean? If you don't, are you sure you can safely say you are alive?
Eph 5:14 of 1-17 MWT  . . .“Awake, O sleeper, and arise from death, and the Christ will shine upon you.”
Eph 2:1-5 GW ...You were once dead because of your failures and sins. (2) You followed the ways of this present world and its spiritual ruler. (John 8:42-51) This ruler continues to work in people who refuse to obey God. (3) All of us once lived among these people, and followed the desires of our corrupt nature. We did what our corrupt desires and thoughts wanted us to do. So, because of our nature, we deserved God's anger just like everyone else. (4) But God is rich in mercy because of his great love for us. (5) We were dead because of our failures, but he made us alive together with Christ. (It is God's kindness that saved you.)

You must understand: We are all born dead! But, we can take in God's power (Walk On Water?) and light (John 1:9-13) as we awake from death (Eph 5:3-17) into life, by consuming the words of Jesus Christ. (John 6:63) Those who are actually alive, then, are those born again (John 3:3-7) as a New Creation (Gal 6:14-16) by feeding on Jesus Christ. (John 6:45-59) This is a succinct overview of the six thousand year long revelation of God's final solution to all the problems Satan and Adam and Eve brought on Creation. Coming to understand and have faith in God's deliverance, then, is the act of our awakening to life. Being alive is forever... (Job 33:13-30)

Being alive, then, is your relationship between you and Jesus Christ and the Creator Jesus was sent to teach you about. (Luke 10:20-24; John 18:37) That knowledge is life! (John 17:3; Pro 30:4-6)

Here is a great danger you face: All the many false christs and prophets (Mat 24:23-28) Jesus warned about are your deceitful enemies. They are everywhere you are or even look, always trying to kill you by promising life. (Mat 23:1-15) Some of them may even imagine they are righteous and they all assert they are. What they have each and all actually accomplished is to distort and hide the simple truth I just exposed you to. [Actually, of course, it is the scriptures I just shared with you that expose truth.] Religionists all rather want to convince you your salvation is somehow connected with them and or their sect. Don't let them mislead or confuse you. [The wicked have had their day and Religionists and all their churches won't be able to trick people much longer... (Isa 45:22-25; Zep 1:12-2:4) They can't trick you now if you are listening to Christ.] Just realize: The churches can't teach you about יהוה. I can't teach you to know יהוה. Only Jesus Christ can teach you about יהוה! That is because Jesus was tasked by his Father to do that Job... (Mat 23:1-15) That work is his life! (John 18:37; Mat 11:27; Acts 4:12; John 6:28-29) Since none of the rest of us were sent by God, the best any of us can do is direct you to read the words of Jesus Christ for yourself! (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) That's just all there is to say about the matter. If you understand the simple truth of your need to actually listen to Christ, you are alive [I believe]. Your actual judgment, of course, is yours alone. (John 3:18-19 of 16-21) YOU must know you are alive! (Rom 2:15-16) Your life depends on your knowing, and then, on your telling others! Our Father is listening... (Mal 3:16-4:3; Rom 10:9-10)
