It works with karma the idea of your passed life of goodness and badness affects the quality and the position of your next incarnation. Although that might sound good, it makes no sense. Think about it. If this is true that each person had a first incarnation that means that each person had perfect karma since he had no previous life in which he had done anything wrong. So if he had perfect karma and he didn’t learn what he was supposed to have learnt during his first life, what makes you think that after hundreds if not thousands of incarnations with accumulated bad karma, that he’s now going to be able to achieve the perfect state of union with divine consciousness.
Then there’s the issue of final authority, when it’s time to reincarnate who or what is the cosmic authorative figure that gets to decide whether your good or bad. These religions by and large have no God who judges nor a gauge by which we are judged by. It’s just like having a justice system with no judge. It makes no sense. The deception of reincarnation is that there’s no day of judgement, no need for the cross and no need to trust in Christ.
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Hebrews 9:27 (KJV)
Aside from Jesus no one has ever been perfect, because of this, no one can ever be good enough to escape the cycle of reincarnation. After death we face judgement meaning there is no second chance. That’s why you need a Saviour today. On the day you die, you will not go back to the end of the line to try again. You’re going to be judged and without the righteousness of Christ you don’t stand a chance.
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
2 Corinthians 5:21(KJV)
