Life Is A Vapor

One of the most humbling passages in the New Testament can be found in the book of James. In chapter four, the Bible speaks of boasting of things to come, especially your days. In verse fourteen it says, "For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away." Moses tells us in Psalm 90:12, "So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." Every human alive has a beginning and has an ending. There was a time when you and I did not exist, however, there has never been a time when Christ didn't exist. He looked his disciples in the eye and said before Abraham was, I am...what a powerful truth in that statement. We do not serve a God who was created and has an ending. In Psalm 90 our God is known as the everlasting God. He has always been, is now, and will always be. Back to us, we have a beginning and we have an ending. The Bible says in Hebrews 9:27 that it is appointed unto man once to die and then the judgment. Once you are created, there will be no ending eternally. Every human being will either spend eternity in heaven with Christ or in hell apart from him. Religion does not matter...whether you are a devout Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, etc...the real question is whether or not you have repented of your sins and trusted Christ as your Lord and Savior. You can be saved by simply admitting your sins, believing Jesus Christ rose from the grave and confessing Christ as Lord.
