First bit of good news

The first bit of good news is we were born human. We could have been born as rodents. (That, by the way, is how much power we have in all of this, for you Arminians out there.)

The second bit of good news is we didn't die in infancy. Many humans do. We didn't. Here we are.

The third bit of good news is we have been given knowledge of what is going on with all of us on this planet, or in this world. It's called the Bible. For us the drama has been a bit weakened because the big, central event in historical time has already happened. The birth, death, and resurrection of the God-man Jesus Christ. But we have the drama and suspense of the Second Coming to look forward to.

I jumped the gun a bit in this next bit of good news. The curse we'd all been living under has been lifted by the God-man Jesus Christ. Like a Knight on a horse he has come and slayed the dragon that was killing us and making us live in fear under his tyranny.

The fifth bit of good news is when we have faith in all this plan of God presented in the Bible and specifically have faith in Jesus Christ and His work in life and on the cross and in His resurrection and we physically die, we are then given glorified bodies to live in a new heaven and earth experiencing joy as we glorify God for eternity.

All the happy ending stories are true.
