Ok, so everybody always hears about why Jesus is so great. But why is He great, really? What is it about Him, and trusting in Him, that makes Him so great?
Because living outside of him is where you have to deal with being good or being bad. And if you've ever had to deal with either one, seriously, you know that they both are extremely hard, and taxing on the soul. This is why the Bible calls the original sin "eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil". Because that's the problem It doesn't matter which side of the coin you are on, the good or the bad, it's stiil the same coin.
So what's the solution? What the Bible calls "eating from the tree of life". Which is, quite simply, God. Who IS the Tree of Life. Which is why I always say, that the answer to life is relationship. With God. And then with others.A relationship with the one who is life is returning to eating from the tree of life.
Don't try to be good. TRY TO LOVE.
