A company wants to buy my life insurance policy! They might pay me 50 thousand dollars on a 100 thousand dollar policy. There are a lot of things you have to consider! My tithe to my local church! Any tax liabilities? I called my tax accountant and asked her to check on any taxes that would be due and then asked her on the thoughts of spending my death benefits before I die? I told her if I wait until I die the benefits do me no good! She told me you will get the full benefits if you wait until you die but you know there is a down side to everything? You know it is like speaking at your own funeral! They would be the nicest words said about me! I could call out those fake relatives with the phony tears! Then I could pick out my own casket! I could have a Christian burial with no cremation! I could chose my own burial plot! I always wanted a lake view! I saw on the news yesterday a State Trooper pulled over a suspicious looking U-Haul truck? He asked them to open the back of the truck! It was full of stolen caskets! Were these thieves trying to cheat death? When we come to Christ we get the death benefits before we die! Jesus has prepared a mansion for us in Heaven but we get the benefits while still living here on earth! The Apostle Paul called these benefits the escrow or down payment! Jesus went to Heaven to send the Holy Spirit back to us as a down payment to his promises to us! The Holy Spirit is a seal in us and on us that marks us for redemption! A life insurance policy for this life and for eternal life! While living here on earth we experience the joy and peace that this world could never give us! God’s very presence living in us! Jesus went to the tomb so we could be raised from the tomb! No mortal can promise you what Jesus has promised you! People go back on their promises but Christ never will! Jesus has overcome the world because he created the world! Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
