[[I can really feel the love in this post. It feels like heartburn.]]
Really? Can you also ‘feel the love’ in the following verses?
Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.
Jesus Christ, Mark 7:6
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows houses, and for a pretense, make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.
Jesus Christ, Matthew 23: 14-15
“But the fearful, (afraid of what ‘others’ might think about following and trusting in Jesus)
and unbelieving,
and the abominable, (this covers many sins including sexual immorality, homosexuality, etc.)
and murderers,
and whoremongers (’pornos’ ... from which we get the word ‘pornography’),
and sorcerers (’pharmakeus’ ... drugs),
and idolaters, (wanting or loving anything more than God-Jesus ... work, sports, music, etc.)
and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone:
which is the second death (Hell).”
(Revelation 21:8)
“Not everyone who says to Me (Jesus), ‘Lord, Lord,’ (calling themselves ‘Christian’)
shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven ...
Many (’most’ or ‘majority’) will say to Me in that Day (of Judgment),
‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied (taught) in your Name,
cast out demons in Your Name,
and done many wonders in Your Name?’
And then (at the judgment), I (Jesus) will declare to them
‘I never knew you
Depart from Me (departing from Heaven and into Hell)
you who practice lawlessness’”
(Matthew 7:21-23)
Better grab yourself a big bottle of tums if you think God turns a blind eye to blatant rejection of Him
You must be a hit at parties. :-D
