I was browsing several internet sites today and I came across this little image that I just had to re-post here and discuss, albeit in brief!
What message does this send to folks? You must get it just right in order to avoid hell - that's the message! You might go to hell because you have fallen in to the ways of the world. You might go to hell because despite being a good, moral and religious person, you were born in the wrong country and thus the only religion and only God you were told about were the wrong ones. Or perhaps you will burn for all eternity because you simply neglected to right the wrongs and to teach others how to live properly.
Oh what God is this? Where is hope? Where is the love? as the Black Eyed Peas would ask! I see many Scriptural references to damnation and fear, but no Scriptural references to love. And who is God? Is he fear or is He love? What fruit does it bring your life to believe in the God of whom this could spoken? I can see no hope of any peace, or assurance or rest for the soul. I see only endless performances to be good enough.
This is not good news folks.
