Do you believe in re-incarnation?
Do you believe in re-incarnation? There has been many debates concerning re-incarnation. Many believe when they die they will be born again as a baby. Living once again on this earth.
But what if you are a Christian? Can a God fearing, Jesus loving person also claim they will be re-incarnated after death?
The answer here is YES. If you will turn to 2 Corinthians 5:17 you will see that the bible speaks of re-incarnation where it talks about - becoming a new creature if you are with Christ, that all old things are passed away.
As you see in 2 Corinthians 5:17 all old things will pass away. This is telling us that as Christians we will die. However, this is not a physical death, but rather a spiritual death where the old sinful nature we once had will be no more.
Re-incarnation isn’t going to happen to everyone. There are conditions to being re-incarnated. In the first part of 2 Corinthians 5:17 we see how we can insure our own re-incarnation - To be in Christ.
What does it mean to be “in Christ?” Very simply to turn from our sinful nature, repent from the heart and believe with your soul in the salvation offered through Jesus’ death and resurrection.
How can you insure your reward of re-incarnation and gain in the salvation of Jesus Christ? Open your heart, soul and mind and say this simple prayer.
Heavenly father, I repent of my sins and ask for forgiveness. I know Jesus, your son, died on the cross and paid the ultimate sacrifice so that I may live, not in my old sinful nature, but as a new creature reincarnated and counted as saved.
Amen.
If you prayed that prayer I want to encourage you to let me know. Also find a bible believing, God fearing, Jesus loving church so that you may grow in the word of God.
God Bless
