god and communication, page-40

This is his world and we are insignificant. We can perish at any time. We have to obey his laws, physics, biological, social etc. God is a bad arse quit gripping and do your duty.

this is certainly a Biblical view:

Psalm 103
For he knows our frame;
he remembers that we are dust
As for man, his days are like grass;
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
and its place knows it no more.


1 Peter 1
Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart, since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; for

“All flesh is like grass
and all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
and the flower falls,
but the word of the Lord remains forever.”


note: one is born again before death (rather than other death). the imperishable is attained before death, which makes the mind victorious over death
