You Are In Control Of How Long You Live In This World #2

Many have said that is God that decides how long you stay on this planet earth. To have it the other way ( i.e if you decide and not God decide) is disrespectful and utterly rude to suggest we have the authority to go or to stay when we are NOT the one that gives life to ourself.

But let us first read Philippian 1:21 -25.

Php 1:21 For what is life? To me, it is Christ. Death, then, will bring more.
Php 1:22 But if by continuing to live I can do more worthwhile work, then I am not sure which I should choose.
Php 1:23 I am pulled in two directions. I want very much to leave this life and be with Christ, which is a far better thing;
Php 1:24 but for your sake it is much more important that I remain alive.
Php 1:25 I am sure of this, and so I know that I will stay. I will stay on with you all, to add to your progress and joy in the faith,


With the above bible verses, has Paul insulted God by choosing to stay on planet earth to help fellow Christians? Paul decides to stay on and not God that decides. Or he knows of a secret that we all should now know ourselves. End time jewel? Seek and discover it yourself...........We are in control how long we live in this world.
