All of our time alive is for the glory and honor of God. If we die, we go to Heaven and worship Him. When the new earth comes, we worship Him even more, for eternity. The glory and honor and worship of God is what life is. It’s what one in Christ will do forever and we are called, repeatedly, to start now.
“For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.”
- Romans 14:7–9
“as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.”
- Philippians 1:20
