February 19, 2023 Worship Service: Into the Void
https://youtube.com/live/st0fFI1k7tE
Death is violent, and Satan is the original Violator and Nihilist. The nihilism of death does not care about your peak experiences or achievements.
Death is neither fooled by your attempts to convince yourself you are happy nor impressed by how much you tell yourself you have accomplished. Death is the last enemy.
Believe.
The ledge of rationality is crumbling into the void, and God will leave us there until we collapse into it or discover a different way of knowing: the leap of faith, the willingness to take God at His word. Even the archangels in heaven have to do that: They must BELIEVE God represents himself honestly to them. We cannot prove the First Principle. To prove it we would have to transcend it. We would have to be self-existent. We are not; we will die.
