A few more things that are only possible to do here while we are on the earth:
This is the last chance we have
... to tell folks about the Gospel of Jesus Christ
... to represent Him to folks, that they might 'see Him in person.'
... to live, worship, and love God by faith
--- to see and to know and to prophecy (in part), to train our souls by the promptings
of the Spirit. Because when the perfect comes, our opportunity to walk this way will end.
... to heal sick people
... to deliver people who are tormented and bound by the devil
... to forgive
... to make disciples of Christ
... to act in Jesus’ Name to, literally, bring Heaven to earth.
Go ahead and add to the list . . .
No creatures in all the universe are so privileged, so trusted, so challenged to
perform so high and holy a calling. What must God think of us?
