* Luís Alberto Alves
"I will give you joy in this world / and there in the other life and peace," is one of the stanzas of a well-known choir in the evangelical Pentecostal churches. It is beautiful Jesus Christ to give us joy in this terrible world, where the evil one tries in various ways to turn us away from the Lord.
Unfortunately, many brethren in Christ end up falling into the trap of Satan. He never joked or left for a second to be an enemy of God. The Christian, however, is hesitant, now stands firm on the rock, and now thinks of leaving the presence of the Lord.
There is a better proposition than to have life and peace in eternity. That is, forever. Living in a place where there will never be death, sadness, melancholy, hunger or all kinds of evil barriers that are around us, is what every Christian must always aim for.
Our concern is to fight to stay with Jesus Christ forever and ever. Forget the garbage offered by the Devil. Do not be deceived, he will always put before us his dirty proposals, but with cleaning varnish. Pay the price and stand firm in the Lord.
