We are Mortal and Spiritual Beings

1 Corinthians 10:50
What I am saying, dear brothers and sisters, is that our physical bodies cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. These dying bodies cannot inherit what will last forever. (NLT)

We all have a group of people we think we know very well. Some we may have known most of our lives. We can picture them in our minds eye and have a fairly good idea how they will react to situations that may come up.

We are who we are, but then again we are both mortal and spiritual beings. These mortal bodies of ours have grown from infant to adult and all the time our true spiritual selves have resided inside. All we really know about someone else is the mortal side of their being.

What about their spiritual side? These mortal bodies cannot inherit what will last forever. It is our spiritual self that passes on. The question is where will it pass on to?

With a relationship with Jesus Christ we are guaranteed to pass on into the Kingdom of God. We are guaranteed a place in Heaven for eternity.

Let us not allow our friends, those who we know well in the flesh, pass on without knowing where they are passing on to. Let us tell them about having a personal relationship with the King of Kings.
