\u201c<\/b>What man can live and never see death? Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHis soul draws near the pit, and his life to those who bring death.\u00a0If there be for him an angel, a mediator, one of the thousand, to declare to man what is right for him,\u00a0and he is merciful to him, and says, \u2018Deliver him from going down into the pit; I have found a ransom;\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.\u00a0For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.\u00a0Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.”<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Psalms 49:15<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0But God will ransom<\/strong> my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me.<\/p>\n

Psalms 31:5<\/b><\/a>\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Into your hand I commit<\/strong> my spirit; you have redeemed me, O LORD, faithful God.<\/p>\n

Psalms 56:13<\/b><\/a>\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0For you have delivered my soul<\/strong> from death, yes, my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.<\/p>\n

Hosea 13:14<\/b><\/a>\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0I shall ransom them<\/strong> from the power of Sheol; I shall redeem them from Death.<\/p>\n

Revelation 14:13<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And I heard a voice from heaven saying, \u201cWrite this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.<\/strong>\u201d \u201cBlessed indeed,\u201d says the Spirit, \u201cthat they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!\u201d<\/p>\n

Psalms 16:10<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0For you will not abandon my soul<\/strong> to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption.<\/p>\n

Psalms 86:13<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is clear that those who are redeemed by his might, mercy, and grace will not see the death reserved for all mankind – Sheol(Hell). \u00a0The question is asked – “What man can live and never see death? Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol?\u201d No man can live and not see death. \u00a0This is our end. \u00a0But the question more important is who can deliver us from hell? \u00a0What are the requirements for this deliverance? \u00a0That too is clear. \u00a0Believe in the redemption in and through Christ. \u00a0Too many stop at this and say I believe but there is no deliverance in the way they live other than going to church once per week. \u00a0They are consumed by the things this world has to offer and so easily lose sight of humbly serving, honoring, glorifying, following, and obeying God each day. \u00a0Little time is spent in His word, meditating on it, or listening to Him speak through His word into their heart, mind, and soul. \u00a0Ask yourself how much do you want God into your daily life. \u00a0if the answer is more – then commit to spend more time in His word and living each day as He directs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
