Stayin’ Alive

The Bible is our guide for daily living and provides information on how to spend eternity in Heaven with Jesus ... how to “Stay Alive” spiritually. Because of sin, man is sentenced to die physically but Jesus offers a gift of spiritual birth and living in Heaven with Him forever. We have free will to choose to accept His gift or not, but without a spiritual birth we will die both physically and spiritually. Pretty heavy stuff, huh?


Friend, don't wait another minute! Humble yourself before God and repent and ask Jesus to save you! It is a choice you must make before you die. (See info below about God’s plan of salvation.)


Today’s little light-hearted song is about cows and chickens ... but choosing where you will spend eternity is not a light-hearted decision! Whether you believe the truths in the Bible or not doesn’t change anything … truth is still truth whether or not you believe it. “Religion” teaches many things but what the Bible says is all that matters. You can try to argue with God, but He wins every time. In fact, He’s already won the battle and has made a way through His Son, Jesus Christ for you to live eternally in Heaven with Him. Refusing His gift = living with satan for eternity in the lake of fire. Accepting His gift = stayin’ alive forevermore.


Romans 10:9-10 – “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Ephesians 2:8-9 – “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

John 12:25 - “He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.” John 5:24 - “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”

Michael O’Brien wrote these humorous song lyrics for Chick-Fil-A Restaurants to the tune of the Bee Gee’s 1977 song “Stayin’ Alive”, from the “Saturday Night Fever” motion picture soundtrack. This “Chick-Fil-A version” is written from a cow’s perspective –


“There was a time when I couldn’t ask of you to help me out … you know it’s true … you love your steaks and your filets, and those beefy ribs with barbecue! But I’ve got a plan, I need your help. The time is now, please understand ... I’m just a cow, I ain’t proud ... I’ve got to save my life somehow! You’ve got to eat more chicken so my heart can keep on tickin! I’m stayin’ alive! Stayin’ alive! Buck-buck-buck!”
