This Is A Test ...this Is Only A Test

As stated in my first blog, there is only one reason we are walking the earth today and that is to take our tests; which everyone before us has already taken. The test varies in length for everyone, but I call it our 70 years (for some 50 for some 90). In other words, our lifetime on earth. As the 90th psalm states, The days of our years are threescore years and ten.
So, what is this test all about? Put simply, it is a test of faith. We have our 70 years to find our faith in our Heavenly Father, GOD, and His Son Jesus Christ, Y'shua in the Hebrew. We are also being tested on how well we treated our fellow human beings.
Remember when the Lord was asked, Master, what is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Matthew 22.36 That's it. That is our test.
Now that is easy for most of us reading this, for we are interested in Godly things or we would not be in this forum. What about the non-believers? Sorry, but they have the same test, they just don't realize it.
Their real problem is, we are living in Satan's domain. While we are in the flesh we are subject to the flesh, or perhaps better said, the world. Which is why our Heavenly Father told us: Love not the world, nor the things of this world...
Now you know the answer to that ages old question, "Why am I here?" We are here to take this test, and hopefully, pass it. Easy, right? Yeah, we all know it is not an easy test to pass. Now the good news is, our Heavenly Father is extremely merciful to us. His Son died for us, right? All that is necessary is our repentance. So, that is our test and everyone is judged on how well they did on their test after the millennial day is done. But that is a different blog. How are you doing on your test, that is the question.
