We are going nowhere, held firmly in the prison cell of sin and death. What a sad, depress-ingly hopeless state we are in until Jesus opens the prison door and says, “Follow me. ” Yet millions choose to stay in the cell, not understanding what awaits them.
And who put us in that cell in the first place? Jesus. So, essentially, Jesus locks us up against our will and puts us on death row unless we abandon everything we have and grovel at his feet. Do you realize why some people would resent Jesus for that?
To choose death above life and hell above heaven is insane.
Well, “evil cannot comphrehend good” and all that. Besides, if we wish to have a “hell of a time” over a dull heaven where we have to spend an eternity groveling at God’s feet, then that is OUR CHOICE. Not yours, Bananaman.
Had he followed Jesus, he would have seen the sick healed, the blind given sight
If Jesus was TRULY benevolent he would do all those things WITHOUT any strings attached.
and people raised from the dead.
So Jesus is a Necromancer?
Today, millions have excuses for not following Jesus Christ. The bottom line is that people love sin.
I don’t “love” sin. I just think that the placebo you Christians keep trying to scam us into buying to get rid of it isn’t worth it even if it DID work.
