How then shall we live?

[Oats]

If we are saved by grace and not works, how the shall we live

If Jesus has paid the cost, how then shall we live?

If all of our joys and substance here on earth are nothing compared to the joys of heaven, how then shall we live?

If the world is headed nowhere good any time fast, how then shall we live?

If we should be in heaven, without any conceivable end whatsoever, how then shall we live...

here on earth?

Grace saved us but works builds faith. We should be involved in some way doing something for the kingdom.

If Jesus has paid the cost, how then shall we live?

in a way that honors his sacrifice. remimber he chose to do what he did. He rose again and that shows us there is life after death.

If all of our joys and substance here on earth are nothing compared to the joys of heaven, how then shall we live?

We don't know what awaits in heaven but we know it's better than here. it should not stop us from living in the here and now.

If the world is headed nowhere good any time fast, how then shall we live?

We stick to the values that we have learned. We follow those. We can't do much if anything about what is happening around us. We only have control over what we do.

If we should be in heaven, without any conceivable end whatsoever, how then shall we live...

knowing that one day we will have to make an account to God for what we did.

here on earth?

we do the best we can with what we are given and pray for the things we can do nothing about.


not a stupid question just one that isn't easily answered. Truth is we each need to look within ourselves and see if we are doing what we are called to do, many of us are, many are not.. honestly it's hard to actually get people to do that.

It is not stupid. I take it as an admonition to keep our minds on things above.
