Is it possible for human beings to be happy without goodness and love ? Not according to God. It's not possible to enjoy true happiness without goodness and love. The world cannot enjoy freedom from sorrow and sadness until the cause of sorrow and sadness is removed from human hearts. Many, as they look around in society and see some of the problems like violence, crime, poverty, racism, corruption, come to the wrong conclusion that these symptoms are the cause of the problems. The truth is that sadness, sorrow, suffering and sickness never existed until SIN took up residence in the human heart. Sin is the principle that God is working to deliver humanity from.
God desired to bring
all peoples under His merciful rule. He desired that the earth should be filled
with joy and peace. He created man for
happiness, and He longs to fill human hearts with the peace of heaven. Seeking the good of others is the way in which true happiness can be
found. Man does not work against his own interest by loving God and his fellow
men. The more unselfish his spirit, the happier he is, because he is fulfilling God's purpose for him.
The breath of God is breathed through him, filling him with gladness. True and abiding happiness can never be derived from any human
being. Our happiness comes not from what is around us, but from what is within us;
not from what we have, but from what
we are. Real happiness is found only in being good and doing good. Notice the Bible testimony about Jesus Christ:
Psalms 37:3,27,100:5/James 4:17/3 John 1:11/Galatians 6:10/John 5:28,29/Ecclesiastes 2:26
Stay tuned for the next post in this study..
We don't have to suffer painful austerities or be reborn in many lifetimes to bring forth our own Buddhahood and attain absolute unshakable happiness. We can attain it right here...right now...just as we are. life purpose
ReplyDeleteHi there.
DeleteThank you for sharing your opinion. Can you please clarify what you mean ? What is "our own Buddhahood" and what painful austerities are you referring to ?
Thanks.
