All Things Spiritual-Awake

11 months ago

In Luke 16:19, a rich man and a beggar named Lazarus were both tormented by the crumbs from the rich man's table. Lazarus died and was carried by angels into Abraham's bosom, where he was tormented. Abraham prayed for mercy and sent Lazarus to his father's house to testify against the torment. Abraham argued that if one went to them from the dead, they would repent, but he said that if not, they would remain unruly and undisciplined.

The church is often labeled as far right extremist, but Jesus Christ's gospel is about salvation and the salvation of the world. The Pharisees made fun of Christ's sermon against worldliness, but the gospel is about empowering us against temptations to worldliness and sensuality. The spiritual things are represented in a narrative of the different states of good and bad. Godly people who are neglected and trampled die no longer in misey, and those who neglect and trample these godly people are in torment every moment, second, and forever.

In John 3:3, Jesus told Nicodemus that a man cannot see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. Nicodemus questioned how a man could be born when he is old and enter the second time into his mother's womb.
