If you don't believe me, pick up a Bible and read the story of the rich young ruler who came to Jesus and asked, "Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life"? When Jesus told Him to go and sell everything he owned and give it to the poor, the Bible tells us that the young man "went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions." Simply put, he deliberately chose his earthly possessions over Christ and eternity in Heaven. Still don't believe me? Read it for yourself in Matthew 19:16-26.<br /><br />John 3:19 says, "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil." This sin-cursed world is full of people who, like the rich young ruler, feel that even eternity in Heaven isn't worth giving up the sins they love so dear.Tommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543094165175649834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095289639418844212.post-452009813525103612014-01-26T11:43:22.681-05:002014-01-26T11:43:22.681-05:00Nobody on this planet would deliberately deny God ...Nobody on this planet would deliberately deny God if they knew he existed because they would know what power God would have and what would happen to them. Regardless of if you say they have no excuse or if you say they deny God so they do not have to be accountable for anything good or bad or they deny God so they can live for themselves, nobody alive would deliberately deny God, they deny God or do not believe in God because they honestly don't believe he exists. It's not to mock God or be smarties, they simply do not believe God exists. As sinful or bad as any person could be, not one single person on this planet good bad or in between would deliberately do something that would see them burn in hell forever, that's ridiculous, nobody would choose that just to satisfy their human desires for a handful of years on this planet and say to themselves, "i know God exists, but i'll deny God or pretend he doesn't exist so i can do what i like with no accountability and i don't care if i burn in agony in hell forever as long as i can live how i want for a handful of years".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
