In Jesus name Listen: The root of cruelty to animals, greed, gluttony, numbness of heart, and the destruction of the earth is not mere habit or culture. It is a heart that has turned away from God and chosen self instead. Jesus described the condition of such a heart when he said, “Out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander” (Matthew 15:19). This does not mean the heart is forever closed. The same Jesus also said the kingdom of God is near and offered to every person. The heart that produces harm can be turned; the kingdom is not locked out of it. It is refused or received. Jesus taught that these choices are not confined to this life. Every act of greed, every refusal of mercy, every willful harm done to the creatures and the world God made is stored up for the day when the secrets of the heart are judged. He declared, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy” (Matthew 5:7), and warned, “With the measure you use it will be measured to you” (Matthew 7:2). He cautioned, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions” (Luke 12:15), and told of the rich fool who stored up treasures only for himself and was called a fool by God that very night (Luke 12:16–21). He also told of the rich man who lived in luxury while ignoring the suffering at his gate and found himself in torment beyond this life (Luke 16:19–31). The rule of darkness over a human soul is temporary in this age — it does not have the final word. It can be broken. Those who remain under it, clinging to ego, greed, numbness, and cruelty, will face the lasting consequences of that choice beyond this earthly life. Those who hand these things over — who repent, practice mercy, deny self, and treat creation as God’s rather than as property to exploit — are transferred into the kingdom that does not end. The darkness is temporary; the kingdom of God is forever. Jesus’ command is therefore simple and absolute: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4:17). “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind… You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:37–39). “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness” (Matthew 6:33). “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (Mark 8:34). Show mercy. Live as a steward, not an owner — for even the sparrows are not forgotten before God (Matthew 10:29), and the earth belongs to the Lord. These are not suggestions for a better earthly life alone. They are the path that leads beyond this realm, into the presence of the One who made both the sparrows and the earth, and who will ask an account of every heart.

Listen:

It is a heart that has turned away from God and chosen self instead.
Jesus described the condition of such a heart when he said, “Out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander” (Matthew 15:19).
This does not mean the heart is forever closed.
The same Jesus also said the kingdom of God is near and offered to every person.

Jesus taught that these choices are not confined to this life.
