How are you doing today?
I hope you all are fine.
Before I started my post I this content was always in my mind.
So before I start to write this blog post, first I want to apologize to the songwriters who I will discuss the song here.
I don't want to offend anyone here.
I know that whatever I write is what God wants me to declare to all of us what He want to tell to us.
What the song that He want us to hear or sing.
First, I want to discussing a song from John Lennon entitled Imagine. let's pay attention to the lyrics of this song:
Imagine
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... Aha-ah...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... Aha-ah...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Writer(s): John Lennon, Yoko Ono

If we said that it's mean we are doubting God's existence.

Are all of us

Atau mungkin kita hanya
Fear of hell

Takut pada neraka
And want heaven?

Dan inginkan surga?
If heaven and hell never existed
Jika surga dan neraka tak pernah ada
Do you still bow to Him?

Masihkah kau bersujud kepada-Nya?

Jika surga dan neraka tak pernah ada

Masihkah kau menyebut nama-Nya?
Can all of us
Bisakah kita semua
Really prostrate wholeheartedly?

Benar-benar sujud sepenuh hati?
Because really He is

Karena sungguh memang Dia
It is worth worshiping

Memang pantas disembah

If heaven and hell never existed?
Heaven is exists before the hell.
And hell is exists because of sin. So if Dhani Ahmad says: "If heaven and hell never existed, Do you still bow to Him? If heaven and hell never existed
Do you still say His name?
This song is not wrong. This song teaches us that we must worship God sincerely.
But we shouldn't say, if heaven never existed. Because heaven is where God lives. We shouldn't say heaven never existed or if there was no heaven like what is written on the introduction to the song Imagine.
Now, if I asked, if a man never fallen into sin, are still heaven and hell will existed?
Heaven will always existed but hell will never existed if man never fallen into sin.
