Fear.

The unknown.

To some of us, life is a destination, while to others it's a journey. But what is it to you?

"Life is a destination" - consider's the end of everything, mostly to be death. And this bring a huge depressing fear on them. Someone said this to me, "if we believe life is a destination, then we might has well just die and get there".

"Life is a journey" - consider's that till you die and even after, you are evolving into something set before you that you are in pursuit of. This category of people never really fear death. It's like they seem to live on forever.

knowledge: what kind and how much?

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:..."(Hos. 4:6). As usual, the scripture always seem to compress "the most difficult and the complex" into a simple statement of fact. It takes a mathematician sometimes to decode them. Funny.

Knowledge is what can destroy the fear of the unknown, and without the right kind of knowledge, destruction is certain. And how much of it you have determine to a great extent the quality of life you live now and thereafter. There has never been a time when knowledge of almost anything is in abundance and in the "CLOUD/Internet" above our heads, following us everywhere we go. There are just too many stuffs at the tip of our fingers.

Is every kind of knowledge really helping out? To want to entertain every kind of knowledge, you will always intermingle with the wrong kind. This is never helpful to the immature without the right frame of mind. Their minds are tossed "to and fro" resulting in emotional ups and downs, aka. Depression. Everyone from time to time need the right kind of knowledge in order to avoid destruction. There has to be filters plugged into our senses, otherwise we will take in junks harder to remove.

Categories of Knowledge.

Everyone of us are daily seeking to know more about life - now and thereafter.

1. The knowledge of the beginning and end. The questions we have about the Creator and His creation, is a huge one. Many are yet to decide on a track to follow. Every kind of knowledge is out there, while more and more knowledge is being poured out every second we breath.

2. The knowledge Of Death. This is about what lies at the other end or "life after death". Also, the knowledge is out there, but difficult for many to pick a track. The less we know about life after death, the more the fear of it we will have. And wherever there is fear, destruction is not far off. On the flip side, to not fear death could lead to these two possibilities:

• The Saints of God in Rev 12:11, "And they overcame him(the evil one) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death." This group and kind of people knows and have the knowledge of life after death. Their minds have transcended this current life into the next. They are the faithfuls believing absolutely in the Faithful God.

• The Terrorist. This group and kind of people also have a picture of the life after, but lack the divine LOVE and Will to hold their beings, I.e., the body, soul and spirit together. Their minds have been taken over (I.e., possessed) by the devil who gave them the picture and not the will of God to love.

3. Knowledge of Good and Evil.  At the great fall Gen. 3, the right conscience to know what is right from wrong was lost. The knowledge to know the Will of God is now a very difficult one to many because it has been taken away by the devil.

My conclusion is this, the right knowledge is out there, but many are not finding it. There is only one Way to the Truth about Life, and it is in and through Christ Jesus. The answer to all the question of life is in Christ, Who is from God.
