Well..., the reason why this sort of thing may seem to be a “surprise” to us, is that most people think there is a “wide gap” between a prostitute and the best and most moral man on earth.
From God’s standpoint, they both look the same...
Good point S.T.
I heard someone once say that not only would we one day be surprised by WHO is in Heaven, but we would also be surprised by who was NOT in Heaven.
