Ever see the line waiting for a bathroom in starbucks? It’s kind of what I imagine before the throne in heaven. The dead lined up — people from all walks of life; young, old, great, and small. Many of them never hearing the gospel before. Many of them, still, rejecting the gospel for whatever reason. Maybe because they believed in a false deity. Perhaps scientific theories gave them reason. Or maybe some were simply afraid of what people might have thought about them if they believed in something as silly as a Father, Son, & Holy Spirit.
Many never even had a chance to believe —and to burn in hell is to glorify God. For God would not be just if He allowed everyone into heaven and he would not have grace & love if He did not pardon some that ought to have burned.
But for those of you with the free will to knowingly choose — I plead this. Do not deny the Son of God. We will all ultimately die. Are you ready?
