"the Son quickeneth whom he will" - The Most Important Scientific and Religious Issue in the 21st Century

The Most Important Scientific and Religious Issue in the 21st Century


None denies that he has his mind in his brain.  And, none also denies that his mind will disappear when his body dies.  But some believe that his soul will survive his death and live in the spirit world, although others think that nothing will be left after his death.

However this civilization and culture of the mankind has been built on the notion that one can be saved by accepting the notion that man's soul can enter into the spirit world after his physical death.  All the non-nonsense major religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, etc. take it as granted that there is the spirit world and life after death, which even the modern, advanced science cannot deny. 

Yet, there is a theory that men invented religions to conquer the fear of death.  Some men think that the mind dies when the brain dies with the body.  And nothing is left after death.  So, they will concentrate on this world while living in this world.  All a man has to do is, they think, enjoy life as much as possible by earning money as much as possible by no matter what means.  If everybody thinks so, the world will be full of severe competition, dirty tricks, mean betrayals, cruel attitudes toward others, unkind behaviors, and evil planning and tactics.  Consequently, the mankind will kill one another to go extinct.  Only the notion that one can live in the spirit world after death in this world, if one does good while living, can stop them from feeding on each other.  So, religions have saved the mankind from cannibalization.  And it can be understood that the belief in life after death is closely linked with ethics or encouragement of doing good against evil.

So, logically, it is insane to deny life after death.  And, it can be understood that Satan persuades a man to deny life after death and existence of the spirit world, while Christ Jesus promised that a man believing in Him and the God would get eternal life in the spirit world.  Satan would say that your life is only once till your death so that you have to be cruel and cold to others to earn money as much as possible to enjoy the life in this world, since big money can be gotten only by neglecting others, especially the poor.            

Here, death after life, good and evil, the God and Satan, etc. are all connected.  Indeed, if all the men were born with DNA making a man have instinctively and inherently the notion that there is life after death in the spirit world, none will be afraid of physical death and there must be no ugly fight among themselves.

In reality, some people come to believe in this notion after long and hard study, training, and education while others take it as granted on their own without being taught by others such as religious people or scholars.  And those brainwashed by Satan or drunken with evil would never admit life after death.

However, there are evil spirits in addition to holy or good spirits in the spirit world.  Satan living in the spirt world is the largest obstacle for men to think of the spirit world.  Satan in the spirit world would say to men in this world that there is no spirit world, and many believe in him, making every evil thing in this world, since they think that there is nothing after their death.

In this context, it is a big mystery why a man does not have such genes or DNA as would tell him that he will go to the spirit world after death in this material world.  Even after Christ Jesus taught it 2000 years ago, no such genes or DNA has been formed in the human cells or bodies.  This is the most important scientific and religious issue for men living in the 21st century.

John 5, King James Version
20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
