Quick Followup. When I say, God's presence is not there in Hell I obviously mean to be more specific. His grace, His blessings, His love is not there. Oh, He is everywhere, yes. THAT is what makes it ever more devastating.
His Holy, perfectly just wrath is there; which is fully deserved for those who Hate and reject Him. But all the mercies and second and second and 70 X 7 chances extended . . . are finally exhausted. The cup of iniquity is full, and the due justice is what it is.
So you end up there with just your awful selfish self, ruminating on all His commandments you broke (all of them by the way) because you were more interested in your own desires, pleasures, comfort, maneuvering for worldly gain and ascendance (in a world that was run and rewarded by the devil.)
Apprehending, avoiding THAT terrible end is . . . the beginning of wisdom! FEAR OF THE LORD! Who is the God of all!
Mind you, I only emphasize this so harshly . . . at this time . . . because the (righteous, loving) fear of the Lord is so exceptionally bereft in any modern discussion, such that, although it is Written, still SOMEONE NEEDS TO SAY IT! We are Witnesses!
Paul Washer saw it and says it. Others, better suited than I, have long said and still do say and See it.
Regardless, The Holy Spirit impresses, it must be said! It must be known! THIS IS NOT A GAME! THIS IS NOT FLIPPENT MENTAL CANOODLING! This is not wishes and slacky bumbling and shrugging, vain, nonchalance omg "whatever" eye-rolling nonsense. . . .
This is SERIOUS!!!
AND IT IS GLORIOUS!
And the wrath abides BECAUSE HIS LOVE AND PERFECT JUSTICE AND HOLINESS . . . IS ETERNAL and His nature, being demanded of itself, as He Is, will have it! It is Written!
I'm just adding, that a slug, a worm, some burnt ash old decaying tinder like me, if able to perceive and shout it, ONLY further redounds to His ETRERNAL GRACE AND GLORY!
Meaning, I myself, fool, fallen, mortal, dying . . . even daring to share and alert this dire (yet glorious!) message . . . only continues to prove and supplicate toward His Divine Majesty--THE ALL IN ALL . . . THE I AM THAT I AM! It is almost like raising the dead. . . . WHICH, actually is like what happens when one is born again, born again in the Spirit.
HOW IS IT NOT SEEN!? HOW IS IT NOT KNOWN, LOVED!? WORSHIPPED!? EVERY DAY . . . EVERY MOMENT . . . EVERY GIVEN BREATH . . . EVERY GOD GIVEN EVERY LIVING DAY!!!!!!????!!!!!!
And again, . . . ONLY by HIS grace is it even remotely possible to grasp, let alone sear to, cleave to, adhere to, dive in to, implore to, pray to! And by "to" I mean to HIM! THE TRIUNE GOD! ONE GOD! THE GOD! GOD ALMIGHTY!
It needs to be shouted! And taught. Well, and blessings and crowns to the martyrs and saints all along The Way--it indeed is and has been shouted, and preached and warned and implored of, since forever, in this world.
Those who have seen Him, His Truth, His sovereign reality--who have been (undeservedly) given even a speck of a blurry eyeful's look through the glass darkly at The Light--The Way, The Truth, The Life--will find themselves not only willing, but eagerly willing and hopeful to suffer and proclaim an infinitesimal SHRED of testimony regarding the revelation of HIS HOLY ETERNAL BEING, CREATOR, GOD, FATHER.
Let alone, my goodness! Remember this during the trials!: One can be a CHILD OF GOD!!!!!!!!!
YES!
YES!
HALLALULLAH! FOREVER!!!!!
PRAISE GOD!
An inheritor of the riches of The Throne? A Child of God? We can be that?!
YES!!! Adopted through grace!
BELIEVE!!!
PRAISE JESUS WHO DIED AND TOOK ON ALL OF THE CURSE AND PAYMENT DUE . . . SUCH THAT . . . mere--albeit blessed, astounding, intricately loved and designed creatures, individuals--are mercifully and magnificently intended to inherit a blazing eternal fraction of the glory of God!!! Such can be a literal member of the Family, of the Body of Christ, OF AND FOR AND WITHIN AND LOVED BY GOD!!!
YOU WANT TO BE SUCH! (If you do.)
Once you have received even a miniscule, particle-sized, glimpse into the being and reality of The Almighty Creator, you find yourself fall-down on face, crushingly humbled, unworthy yet aware, that you are in the actual vale of His Presence!
It is mind blowing, it is ego blowing, it is garbage blowing--it (even this little glimpse) is such a blast-furnace of Light, that ALL else is barely worth speaking of!
Well, there aren't really words to describe it. At least not here . . . but we try. . . .
Astounded, one carefully realizes . . . WE are His handiwork! We are not our own! Thank GOD!
How dare one complain! How dare one contravene and argue and imagine to have a better idea!!!
Are you kidding ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????!!!!!!!!!
NO! Don't you dare to question God! If you do, quickly repent and humble yourself.
Praise and thank God every minute, moment, breathe, intent as you are able!
The Holy Spirit, especially in these end times, as He fires up to support and sustain and invigorate His Children, WILL whisper and sometimes shout . . . direction to you. Remember, let the dead bury the dead. The dead are dead. The Living are the Living. And such is God's will and pleasure!
And then you shall revel in His Name and sacrifice; as The Holy Spirit continues to teach and lead and sanctify you along the LONG, ENDLESS, UNFATHOMABLY GLORIOUS HOLY ROAD TO ENDLESS PERFECTION AND WONDER IN HIM!
