I

All who come into this world must pass through life and death, and the majority of them have passed through the cycle of death and rebirth. Those who are living will soon die, and the dead will soon return. All of this is the course of life arranged by God for each living being. Yet this course and this cycle are precisely the fact that God wishes for man to behold: that the life bestowed upon man by God is endless, unfettered by physicality, time, or space. Such is the mystery of life bestowed upon man by God, and proof that life came from Him.

II

Though many may not believe that man’s life came from God, man inevitably enjoys all that comes from God, whether they believe in or deny His existence. Should God one day have a sudden change of heart and wish to reclaim all that exists in the world and to take back the life He has given, then all shall be no more. God uses His life to supply all things, both living and lifeless, bringing all to good order by virtue of His might and authority. This is a fact that can be conceived or comprehended by none, and these incomprehensible facts are the very manifestation of, and testament to, the life force of God.
