A Christian in the state of grace does not need to be terrified at the idea of death. In the moment, he can be assured of salvation. But even a Christian will tremble as his personal judgment draws near, because he will be forced to confront his own sins -- the many times he offended God in this life through sin and selfishness, carelessness and laziness, etc., especially after baptism. Sinning against an infinitely loving and holy God is serious stuff. It becomes more serious, not less, after becoming a Christian, when ignorance is not an excuse. God's mercy does not erase his justice. The once-saved-always-saved doctrine -- the idea that Jesus has already forgiven you of every consequence of your *future* sins -- is evil. It leads to the presumption that you're good to go. Rather than believing it's already "mission accomplished," we need to put on the "whole armor of God," because whether we know it or acknowledge it, we are in a spiritual battle for our eternal lives. Arm yourself with the graces God gives us. He knows we need them. He knows of our weak frame. He is compassionate. He's not mad at us; he wants us to fight through our challenges and setbacks. His Spirit will equip us with everything we need. We just need to cooperate with his grace. We need to Just Do It. Don't be distracted. Put your phone down and pray with me. And for me. And for yourself. And for those who don't yet know God. "For the sake of His sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world."
