In life eternal, there is perfect joy and light, without pain or torture, and there is communion with God Himself and His angels.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
All life is a manifestation of the spirit, the manifestation of love.
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.
It is the experiences, the great triumphant joy of living to the fullest extent in which real meaning is found. God it's great to be alive!
All true happiness, pure joy, sweet bounties, and unclouded pleasure are contained within the knowledge and love of God.
This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.
Eternal life can mean utter reverence for life itself.
We are the spirit children of a Heavenly Father. He loved us and He taught us before we were born into this world. He told us that He wished to give us all that He had. To qualify for that gift we had to receive mortal bodies and be tested. Because of those mortal bodies, we would face pain, sickness, and death.
In contrast, Christianity, while acknowledging the presence of suffering, declares that life can be infinitely worth living and opens the way to eternal life in fellowship with God Who so loved the world that He gave Himself in Christ.
And if, happy in the lot of no created thing, he withdraws into the center of his own unity, his spirit, made one with God, in the solitary darkness of God, who is set above all things, shall surpass them all.
The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.
