Well,if all you say is true and I am not saying I think it IS,then that famous Curtis Mayfield song is defintely applicable-
If Theres a Hell Below,Were All Going to Go!
I am not a person who takes The Bible literally.I do read it a lot and much is very inspirational and just basic common sense.Yet I simply cannot take every word at face value.I am a critical thinker and do not accept ANY book or idea without deep analysis and a healthy dose of skepticism.

>>Well,if all you say is true<<

It's not me, it's scripture. I'm just repeating it.

>>If Theres a Hell Below,Were All Going to Go!<<

That's exactly the point. If we all got what was truly "fair", that's where we'd all end up.

Given this, how can you then deny the sweetness of Grace?

>>I am not a person who takes The Bible literally.I do read it a lot and much is very inspirational and just basic common sense.<<

Then it's either all true, or none of it is. You can't pick and choose.

>>I am a critical thinker and do not accept ANY book or idea without deep analysis and a healthy dose of skepticism.<<

Then search the scriptures for your answer. Scripture proves itself, and is the perfect thing for those who think critically, as well as those who don't.
