Are you telling them what He told you to tell them?  Have you ever mentioned judgment, or does the idea make you feel as if you are being intolerant?  I know, we have been told so many times by the feel-good society that they cannot imagine a loving God could ever send good people to Hell simply for declining His offer of saving grace.  Do not make for yourselves a custom designed image of God, known in the Bible as a graven image.  God may be the most loving idea you can imagine but He has also been saving up wrath for the day of judgment ever since we chose to sin.  Make no mistake, those who ignore, decline, deny or foolishly join satan in direct conflict against God’s Will shall all be sentenced eternally to the lake of fire for their own recorded works.  He is a just and righteous God, who cannot stand sin and has warned everyone that if they do not accept redemption they will choose their own end, eternal separation and judgment.

Yes, I want to be gentle in my loving expression and relationship with all humans.  However, does being gentle require that I refuse or overlook warning those whom I love of the dangers of God’s eternal judgment?  Christ died for our sins and that is a serious thing, that God would come to Earth in order to save us from righteous judgment.  That He would go to such humbling and extensive action to provide each of us the possibility of eternal reconciliation should not be underestimated.  He obviously takes sin very seriously or otherwise He wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to cleanse us of its stain.  We cannot simply choose to teach the parts of the Bible that we feel comfortable in expressing.

The truth has this unique characteristic that it only remains the truth when it is stated clearly, completely and openly without obfuscation, illusion or contextualization.  That is why satan is so insidious and the Pharisees/Sadducees are always referred to as vipers, speaking with a forked tongue.  Take for example the Biblical Truth, stating that “the truth will make you free”, John 8:32.  Read the whole truth, Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.  Taking those lines that are appealing to us out of context removes the qualifying statements that precede it thereby disseminating or warping truth for our own palatable purpose.  According to the commonly used version, “the truth shall make you free” requires nothing of the recipient and additionally all people, believers and unbelievers to be set free by truth, nothing could be further from the truth.

Jesus, is the Way the Truth and the Life and No one comes to the Father but by Him.  How can anyone wishing to know the truth, know that truth without first knowing Jesus?  The world hates Jesus and by relation Christians and Jews.  They cannot tolerate that God would hold them “Absolutely” accountable to His absolute truth.  Historically and subsequently, since they cannot hope to harm God directly, they take their anger out on those whom He loves.  Christians and Jews need not worry though they suffer in this life, God will relieve that suffering and deliver righteous vengeance on all it perpetrators.

God is God and He makes the rules in this and all His universes.  Just because I do not wish to follow my Father’s rules does not free me from His judgment, especially when I am a member of His household.  The only way that a previously disobedient child escapes a Father’s discipline is by being obedient.  God requires that we obediently choose between service as Kin to Jesus in heaven or as suffering eternal slaves to our sin in hell.  That choice does not make Him an unloving God but exactly the contrary, providing a method of salvation where no hope existed.  His judgment is coming, I pray that I have sufficiently prompted you to investigate your own decision for or against Christ.  You see I love you enough to warn you away from the edge, not just tell you the sugar coated version of God’s Word.  Read it for yourself, decide for yourself for you alone shall benefit or suffer for that decision.  My job is to tell you and that I have done.  In Jesus Name.
