Life, what is to be done with it?  There is a spectrum of possibilities on this issue, ranging from life’s insignificance to the opposite where each human was specifically crafted for larger purpose.  On one end chance, over billions of years via shear opportunity, a chemical reaction created a specific chain of events resulting in human life.  I shall not argue these differences for sake of staying clear of argument about the existence of God, for I believe that review of the significance of life accepts His existence as precedent for further discussion.

On the other end, life has a specific purpose to train us for our eternal participation in God’s created universe.  If it is chance to which you subscribe then each interaction of this life is simply orchestrated by luck, coincidence and chemical interaction, leaving its meaning solely up to how each individual reacts to those chance environments and occurrence.

Here is where the “survival of the fittest” mentality is born, for in this ideology the strong will eat the weak and those of low constitution shall never prevail when subjected to ravages of time and chance.  This has never panned out as weak humans remain even after the tens or hundreds of millions of chance and evolutionary impact.  Certainly there have been evil men, Hitler one of the most atrocious, who believed that evolution needed a bit of assistance to eradicate the weak.  This just demonstrates the desperation involved in this life ideology, for if life were simply about the strong surviving, then we would never have thought Hitler evil in the first place, for he would have just been fulfilling the evolutionist’s mandate.  If I truly believed that evolution is the guiding power and authority governing man’s finite existence, then it would need no assistance from me.  Rather I would be struggling against its ominous impacts, chance near death experiences and inevitability.

Praise be to God that this is not the True meaning of life.  Thanks to Almighty God that this mediocre experience, called life may be transformed into abundant blessing through organized relationship with our creator in realization of His designed purpose for mankind.  Jesus Christ put it succinctly in John 10:9-10 when He said, “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. “I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

Living this life as if it is all that man can ever have breeds the contempt inherent to evolutionary ideology.  Praise God that this is not the end and that He may instructively utilize my weakness for His Glory and the good of mankind.  We are all precious, each of us.  Some of the noblest gestures and campaigns in mankind’s history were when the strong stepped in to defend, help or help to strengthen the weakest of our brethren.  Evolutionism preaches a desperation inherent to the “thief” Christ mentioned in the previous passage.  For satan would have us invest all of our eternal opportunity in the finite moments of this existence, incorrectly believing that your lot in this life is all that we may achieve.  He would have us give in to the desperation of our circumstances instead of concentrating on God’s promises of abundant life “in this lifetime”.  Yes Christ promised that His coming made it so that we “may have life and have it abundantly”.  That abundance only comes with a belief in something beyond “ourselves”.  It only comes with faith in God’s capacity to transform our circumstances or transform us within our circumstances so that abundant living is possible.  Those confining themselves to the finite, fickle and marginally powerless religion of evolutionism have determined that they will leave their access to abundance entirely up to chance.  They have had the possibility of abundance stolen by the thief, we also know as the roaming lion, who has effectively deceived them into giving up their birthright into the citizenship of heaven.

Look, I do not know what stimuli prompted those who subscribe to the religion of evolutionism to seek that limited path.  I just know that I cannot adhere to such desperation when the choice of abundant life beckons me follow.  Why narrow your vision focusing on the limitations of this lifetime when a full scan of the universe demonstrates the Glory of possibility and purpose?  I know that God made me for a specific purpose to His Glory.  I believe that the living of this life is its own purpose, that I can never be separated from that purpose and that eternity awaits my completion of this segment of infinity.  This is not all that I have and that makes me a powerful man even in the face of my obvious worldly weakness.  I am acquainted with eternity, His name is Jesus Christ the King of God’s creation.  My kinship to Him transcends any impacts that this life has in store, for I shall be with God, forever and forever, servant to a Righteous King who deserves my everything and promises me abundant, Life.
