Except it wasn't Lazarus who asked Abraham to quench his thirst in the flame, it was the unsaved rich man. Perhaps THAT was why he couldn't speak to God? But before Jesus arose and close the Paradise compartment of Hades, no one had direct access to God. And, I don't know about 2nd amendment mama, but my two late grannies were really special and wonderful women who loved the Lord, but they can't save me, only Jesus can. Maybe it's not everyone else that is “ignorant” after all, just that we know what God has said in his word and we BELIEVE it.

Thanks boatbums. Yes, my Grandmas were very special ladies in my life but I don’t revere them the way I do Jesus. Because of them, I have life on this earth but because of Jesus, I have eternal life. Huge difference.
