Wisdom is known by her children, that is why the Devil
accuses us day and night before God. See the Book
of Job and Revelation
12:10. The Devil is trying to fault God's wisdom by using the weakest part
of his Kingdom i.e. humans who have been saved by God's grace alone. But God delights
in using the weak things of this world to confound the intellectually proud. That
includes all of the Devil's lies and all doctrines of demons. Man is part of an
eternal testimony of which all philosophies and arguments of the Devil are being
played out by willing humans and also the wisdom of God is also being demonstrated
by willing humans.
Reincarnation is a doctrine of demons and it openly encourages the worship
of many gods, which are really fallen Angels who seek recognition and worship.
The Devil uses this doctrine to enslave many proud people and to cut them off
from God by making them believe that they do not need God's grace, rather they
can save themselves in their own strength. Worshipping other gods and self salvation
are both condemned in scripture.
So how do we know if something is good, well Jesus said we know by looking
at the fruits. Now the fruits of reincarnation are a society of extreme wealth
and poverty side by side, because reincarnation is an enemy to a Godly attribute
called charity. Look at the part of the world where Hinduism is strongest, and
then look at the fruit of that regions lifestyle. The Hindu areas of the world
demonstrate this wisdom by creating a society of some rich people and many poor
people. But overall we see society that experiences an enormous amount of suffering.
According to the theory of Reincarnation, if you are born poor, it is because
of sins in a previous life. Reincarnation also dictates that if you help such
a poor person, then you are prolonging their suffering because they will ultimately
have to pay for their sins somewhere, whether in this life or supposed others
to come. This leads many to just leave people to suffer, so they can ultimately
pay for their sins, and then their karma will have a better balance or less
of a deficit. This is so contrary to charity and grace which are Godly attributes
that should be demonstrated in our lives. We should forgive and give where ever
we see the need. God will then forgive and give to us to that same proportion.
We should feed the poor and clothe the naked. We are all ultimately judged by
these virtues and if we fail in those things then we will be cast away from
God in judgment. See Matthew
25:31-46
God forgives all our sins if we forgive others their sins and turn from our
own sins to serve him. Reincarnation denies this ultimatum, but does recognize
Jesus as one way to God, usually for those who cannot create their own good
karma and have to rely on Jesus karma to get through. Although this has a ring
of truth to it, i.e. we rely on Jesus karma to get us to God, ultimately it
isn't truth because by accepting reincarnation, you are also accepting other
ways to God and this contradicts Jesus own words when he said "I am the
Way the Truth the Life, no one comes to the Father except through me."
Now this is either true or not, and if we say that there are other ways or truths
to God then we call Jesus (the Truth) a liar and who would want to rely on the
karma or good works of a liar.
We should all realize that without God's grace we are doomed and that we cannot
save ourselves, because we have all sinned and fallen short of God's Glory.
Pride stops us from accepting Gods free gift of salvation, pride says that I
can reach God's glory myself. Is this not the error of Babel, where they built
a tower that reached toward the heavens, so they could try to reach God in their
own strength. A tower that provided salvation in case God flooded the earth
again. We shouldn't perpetuate Babel and it successor Babylon which is the system
of false religion. That system has spawned many religions, philosophies and
doctrines which not only serve to bring division to humanity, but is also the
root for most wars and much hate and division.
Now the scriptures tell us that narrow is the path that leads to life and
wide is the path that leads to destruction. This is because there is only one
truth and many lies. You could say 1+1=3, 1+1=2 or 1+1=0, but only one answer
is correct. So not only is the true path to God narrow, but Jesus Christ is
the only way that we can reach God. He is the only mediator between God and
Man.
Now Jesus Christ himself as well as the other writers of the biblical books,
never teach reincarnation, rather they teach resurrection. The
books in the bible were written by 40 different people over a period of thousands
of years. They include Kings, prophets and apostles. There are also many other
written works, especially from the 2nd century, written by apostles and prophets
that also teach resurrection.
Now in Hebrews
9-27 we read the following: In Luke
13:1-5 we read the words of Jesus himself.
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but
after this the judgment.
1 There were present at that season some that told him
of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were
sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think
ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
