The wages of sin is death, and the wages of war is death.
The gift of God is eternal, and a War won is scarce.
These two lines stand true for my fellow Soldiers (On Both Fronts). There is no winning in a war just a temporary achievement, and with that achievement comes more terror, and puts you on edge because you know your enemy is going to retaliate. the only war I know of that can be Actually Won is found in...
Isaiah 14:12-17
"How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! For you have said in your heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.' Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. "Those who see you will gaze at you, And consider you, saying: 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms, Who made the world as a wilderness And destroyed its cities, Who did not open the house of his prisoners?' "All the kings of the nations, All of them, sleep in glory, Everyone in his own house; But you are cast out of your grave Like an abominable branch, Like the garment of those who are slain, Thrust through with a sword, Who go down to the stones of the pit, Like a corpse trodden underfoot"
This verse, the one just read gives me shivers every time I read it. Its the truth and its final. God has and will finally rid us of this thing called sin. We will get new bodies; Heavenly bodies. We will be like soldiers fighting for our eternity in this last War. But I pray your on the right side because the outcome of that war is already decided, Sin will be brought to Sheol and will be cast into the lake of fire forever.
I believe this prophecy will come to pass because other like it have already been fulfilled. Jesus Birth was prophesied approximately 700 years before his actual birth when King Herod was in power; as shown by historians and history records.
Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.
