On Monday evening there was a story on the local news about a news station in another state that had been hit by hackers.  They had interrupted their programming with a message that there were people coming out of the graves and now walking around the city.  The newscaster was struggling to hold back her laughter.  I understand how they think that such a thing is funny; but, I don’t really agree.

The devil is doing what he can to prepare people for the resurrection.  That is what it amounts to here.  He is trying to get people so familiar with the concept of a resurrection that when it happens that it will not be too big of a deal.  For every true thing that God has the devil has a counterfeit.

The Word of God tells us in Acts 24:15, “And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.”  We will all be resurrected one day.  The just will be taken to Heaven.  The unjust will be resurrected to be cast into a real place called Hell for all eternity.  The question is, “What are you and I doing about it?”

So, how are you doing?
