Eschatology (18)
  1. Yes, when we die, we believe that we go to be with Jesus in a paradise called heaven. But that’s only a vacation destination, as it were.
  2. When God sends them to hell, it is indeed punishment, but he’s only giving them what they asked for.
  3. You are changing as your eyes move over these sentences. You are aging. You are on your way to death. And nothing, absolutely nothing, can alter that fact.
  4. The Lord has a special place in his heart for those whom the world forgets. For the anonymous. For the rejected.
  5. When we begin singing the opening hymn, our voices blend with those of angels in heaven, who have been belting out hymns long before we rolled out of bed that morning.
  6. Because I do care now, and will care even after I’m with the Lord, here are some things I hope and pray are not said at my funeral. I care about those who will be there, about what they will hear.
