The Walking Dead

 There is a phenomenal fascination with zombies these days, from hollywood, to video gaming and even the gun industry with their zombie targets. There has always been that zombie genre out there but the magnitude of it's growth and following is just crazy now. Of course you already know that  zombies are dead people who appear to be alive. They walk around in this kind of zoned out (dead) state of being with blank stares on their faces until they come across someone is actually alive and then it seems like they get angry and try to consume the living person. One day I was thinking about zombies and their behavior, I don't know why, and it dawned on me that the bible talks about zombies (the walking dead) all the time. Ephesians 2:1-3 says "And you (believers) hath he quickened (made alive), who were dead in trespasses and sins. 2. Wherein times past you WALKED according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience. 3 Amoung whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and or the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. We were dead in our drunkenness, drug use, fornication, adulteries, lies, wicked imaginations, selfishness and greed, pride, gluttony and idolatry. We were alive physically but dead spiritually. So when you see someone who is still caught up in these things and apart from Jesus Christ what you are actually looking at is a real life zombie. But God is good and he is able to save them just like he was able to save me and give me life. Before I mentioned how zombies try to consume the living. I guess it is just something that is in their nature to do so. And that's exactly what real life spiritual zombies do as well, they try to destroy the living, the people of God, with their mouths. Job 16:9 He teareth me in his wrath,who hateh me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy shapeneth his eyes upon me. Lamentations 2:16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth; they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we have looked for; we have found it and seen it. The zombies love to speak evil of Gods people even about the Lord himself bearing false witness against him because their actions are evil. I have a few questions for you, are you a zombie today? Are you one of the walking dead who inhabit the earth, dead in your sins and trespasses whose only purpose is satisfy your fleshly lusts and desires? Are you still rejecting Jesus Christ and his gospel? If so then the wrath of God is resting on you right now. John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abideth on him. Now is the time of salvation, now is the time to come to Jesus and receive eternal life, now is the time to be born again and inherit the kingdom of God.
