Matter and The Essence of Immortality
### Matter
In many ways it is the building blocks of life. It is your hands, your feet, your eyes. You are made of matter. More specifically, you are living matter. "Living Matter" is how I describe any substance or type of matter that is actually "living"... All living matter relies on 4 elements to continue living. Earth, wind (air), water, and light. Earth, you need veggies and fruit to eat... "Food" is a form of living matter that all humans need to survive. It comes from the ground. Plants are another form of living matter which also need those 4 elements to survive. A head of lettuce needs *earth* in order to absorb nutrients. It needs water to hydrate its-self. It needs air and light for the process of photosynthesis.... This isnt anything new to man kind. This isnt groundbreaking but sometimes it can bring clarity when  we discuss things that we have forgotten...

You see God raises us out of the ground like we do crop. He gives us earth for nutrients. He gives us water for blood. He gives us air to breath and light to absorb. Like crop, we wouldnt grow unless someone planted the seed. The same works with God. What is our purpose then? Well, it is simple. We were put on this earth to *feed God*. God is a man-eater. This is where things get different however... God doesnt consume  the same "matter" we do to survive.... We consume "perishable matter"... What does that mean? It means that *your matter* will one day be consumed by the earth. Your flesh and blood will no longer exist.... It will return back to the earth... Your matter is perishable. In that what was once "living matter" will become dead again....

So what type of matter does God consume? God must consume imperishable matter, for he is imperishable....Something immortal, can not survive off other matter that is mortal...Can it?.... For example, a fish is alive, then it perished, and now it is dead. Then it is consumed by man, and then the matter is living again.. Hmmmm... Everlasting life?

### Heaven And Hell
The soul. What type of matter makes up the soul? What is it made out of? Well, I have the answer - imperishable matter. You see, when discussing the elements (Earth, Water, Wind, and Light)... 3 of the 4 elements are transparent... In other words they are invisible... The soul is similar, it to is invisible. The soul is the light within you. It cannot be seen but it can illuminate upon those around you. The soul is imperishable in light.... But perishable in its counterpart (fire)... The "light" is heaven the "fire" is hell..... 

You could argue "well fire or heat energy are essentially the source of light"...And this is true. So lets say "the fire" is "the sun". It is good to live in the light of the sun, it is warm and comfortable. The earth seems to be the perfect distance from the sun... If you where to live on the sun however you would immediately burst into flames...Hmmm also true... So what does this all mean????

Well ask me, why did God create hell? Hell is the fire-pit that keeps the angels of heaven warm. It is the reassurance that not all souls will be consumed by God and that a certain amount will be casted into the fires of hell to keep it alive... therefore keeping God alive. Hell provides us perishable wood in order to sustain an imperishable light. It is this burning flame that gives us a reason to keep living. If you where forced to live in a realm with evil men *forever*... you might have wished you were never born at all...But if you could live *forever* without the devil, then you could live forever...This is the essence of God and the immortality that awaits us... Well at least some of us.... 

The afterlife is unknown to all of us on earth, we can only draw our conclusion however, through things like matter. Our world is a sketch of the next. It isnt the real thing, but it was build after the real thing.. Turn to Jesus and all with be ok :D
