In most cases God does not pick our date or time of departure but we ourselves since we are to take care of our bodies, exercise, eat healthy, sleep well, keep the stress down, avoid accidents and so much more! If God was the One who picked our time of departure we could do anything, drink anything, smoke anything, eat anything! Many people end up going to Hell and not Heaven because of this which is not God's will for anyone to perish but to have everlasting life In Christ! What you said is rooted in Catholicsm or a faulty interpretation of Scriptures! It was never God's will for Man to experience any kind of death or sickness etc. which is why a big part of the Ministry of Jesus was to heal the sick! Read the Word according to the Whole Counsel of God and not just a few satelitte verses taken out of their context!!

 If Jesus came back today there would be too many people going to hell and there's too many Christians that are not ready for His return, most Christians have forgotten about the Great Commission and will be held accountable on that great day

 i was my mom's caregiver (she was fast approaching 96) for 3 years because of a fractured knee when she fell (before the fall she was doing very good using her walker) and I'm telling you, what a responsibility in taking care of her without going into the details! Wow just wow! did I ever have to adjust to many things I had never dreamed of doing and I certainly lost my cool many times "Pierre had his moments" she would say! She went to be with Jesus May 6 2025 I came home and she was gone (spirit and soul gone to be Home, leaving her body behind)! thank you for letting me rant a little! God Bless all Caregivers!! what an awesome priviilge to take care of you Mom see you soon!!! (It will be 2 months July 6)

 Jesus is looking for a Body to work through, not a one-man show

 According to the Four Gospels and the Epistles, actual followers of Christ or Christ followers will do the very same works that Jesus did as in Healing The Sick, Raising the Dead, Driving out demons and so forth.

 Leaders in the Body of Christ are to make disciples after Jesus and not after themselves

 (John 1:1-14) God the Word became Man so that Fallen Man could become sons of God once again (Luke 3:38)
