"And Solomon begat Roboam" - If his Faith is Not Complete



Tokyo

If his Faith is Not Complete

There are many poor and unhappy people even today.  But there are also many rich and happy people.

When Christ Jesus came to this world, He focused on poor and unhappy people.  He never visited rich and happy people, although He did not reject rich people coming to Him for any spiritual salvation and from any religious motives.

People live and die as poor and unhappy men or as rich and happy men.  And it is often said that poor men tend to become poorer and rich men tend to be richer.

However, if rich and happy men love poor and unhappy men subject to the teaching of Christ Jesus, the former would give any part of their riches and happiness to the latter.  Then, these righteous rich and happy men would become less rich and happy.  Finally, a faithful man with 2 dollars would give 1 dollar to a poorer man with no dollars.  Then, there would be no rich and happy men who have faith in the God and Christ Jesus.

But this world is full of those who do not honestly follow the teaching of Christ Jesus.  Rather, rich and happy men tend to try to be richer and happier by sacrificing poor and unhappy people.  And everybody wants to be rich and happy, thus neglecting poor and unhappy people.  But this attitude is clearly against the teaching of Christ Jesus.

However, Christ Jesus said that poor and unhappy people in this world could enter Heaven after their physical death in this world.  And in Heave, they would be no more poor and unhappy.

The key to this teaching is not whether or not a man has a soul that will survive his or her death.  But it is whether a poor man can really enter Heaven even he does not faith in the God and Christ Jesus while he lives in this world.   How would the God and Christ Jesus treat a poor and unhappy man who had no faith in the God and Christ Jesus while he lived in this world?

In the line of the teaching of Christ Jesus in terms of love to poor neighbors, such a poor and unhappy man without faith in the God and Christ Jesus during his lifetime should be also able to enter Heaven despite his lack of love to the God and Christ Jesus.

The meaning of being poor and unhappy during one's lifetime in this world must be more profound than we usually assume.  Similarly, the meaning of being rich and happy during one's lifetime in this world must be more profound than we usually assume.

Anyway, Satan would be glad to see a poor and unhappy man cannot enter Heaven unless he has enough faith in the God and Christ Jesus while those who become rich and happy due to support by Satan are rejected from Heaven.

To defeat Satan who hates Heaven and wants everybody to fall down to the hell, the God and Christ Jesus must allow a poor and unhappy man to enter Heaven if his faith is not complete.
