Sermon Tone Analysis

The fear of the Lord prolongs life, but the years of the wicked will be short.

NASB95

15 My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth; 16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them.

17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

18 If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand.

When I awake, I am still with You.

NASB95

10 As for the days of our life, they contain seventy years, Or if due to strength, eighty years, Yet their pride is but labor and sorrow; For soon it is gone and we fly away.

OT Patriarchs Ages:

Methuselah - 969 years

Noah - 950 years

Isaac - 180 years

Isaac - 180 years

If you put up all this ages against what Peter says:

If you put up all this ages against what Peter says:

Today we are gathered here not to celebrate somebody’s life but to celebrate the fact that somebody has been and is still alive for 90 years- Dinah Ramiro.

If we were talking about Dinah’s identical twin, then we would be celebrating her life.

Too bad she was in a hurry to leave earth instead of living on earth, but in her case it was beyond hers and our control.

God wanted her home 27 years ago.

Life upon birth is a gift, given to us not by our choice but by God’s choice.

Life during our existence here on Earth is also a gift and it’s longevity depends on how you managed it God’s sovereign control.

All of God’s choices are good but we cannot say the same with all of ours.

God choose to give you life but how you live it becomes your choice.

The outcome of your choices will impact how long you want to live.

How we fill about living;

If things are going well we want to live long but when it goes south then we want to go south with it even 6 feet under.

There are some who want to live long and so we ask the question what is the secret to a long life.

PROPER PHYSICAL DIET & EXERCISE

it’s a common knowledge that health is wealth.

You want to fire your doctor, set fire to all your junk food at home, hit the gym start burning calories and start eating healthy.

Eating a healthy leachon does not translate to a healthy diet.

God’s original intent for man is to be physically active.

Observe his commands to Adam:

Go multiply

have dominion,

eat vegetarian or go vegan.

3 John

So there are biblical prescriptions on how to stay physically healthy.

What happens then.

You fear because you have sinned.

CLARIFICATION ON BELIEVING

BELIEVING IS TRUSTING

BELIEVING IS OBEYING

BELIEVING IS LIVING FOR JESUS

BELIEVING IS RELYING IN THE GOODNESS, PERFECTION OF CHRIST.

AMPUTATION - ETERNAL SEPARATION FROM GOD AND THERE WILL PLACE FOR THOSE WHO REJECT THE JESUS - HELL

SO YOU EITHER RECEIVE BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE

YOU REJECT BECAUSE YOU DON’T BELIEVE
