Is the Virginia Tech shooting tragic? Certainly. Are the families and friends of the victims hurting? Absolutely. But we need to look at the bigger picture as Jesus presented it and see that the real tragedy is not the physical loss of life but the eternity in the lake of fire facing anyone who has not repented of his sins and put his trust in Christ and the gospel. We certainly cannot presume that all of the victims at Virginia Tech were Christians and the perpetrator who killed himself was certainly not a Christian. Without Christ, humans are without hope and that is the real tragedy!
