Can you imagine what the world would be like if God had not set eternity into the hearts of men (Ecclesiastes 3:11)? If the human race believed that there were no rewards and no punishments and no having to give an answer to anyone? If the human race believed that they only had this one life to live, and no matter how they lived this life, the only thing they could anticipate was the finality of death? What kind of race would we be? What kind of a world would this be? Do you think the suicide rate would increase or decrease? Do you think the murder rate would increase or decrease? Do you think violent crimes would increase or decrease? My Christian Interpretation would be that life on planet earth would take a nose dive.
Thank God that heaven and hell do exist! Thank God that He has put that knowledge in our hearts, and given us His Word to help us in our understanding. Thank God for the gift of His Son and the forgiveness of sins.
