Too Evil, Too Good

The belief of life after death or after-life cuts across nations, tribes, tongues and ethnicity in varying forms, shades, formats and description. There is the place for the “very evil” or “too evil” and there is the place for the “very good” or “too good”.

This idea cuts across. Be it the occidental beliefs or the oriental beliefs. From the North Pole to the South Pole, irrespective of any tribe, race or color. The Greek myth of the Mount Olympus and the Underworld is on this belief system. Mount Olympus is for the “too good” (though the place is froth with discord, quarrels, sensuality and vices among the gods and goddesses) and the Underworld with Hades as its head, the place of the “too evil” or a prison to hold people captive.
The Underworld is always portrayed as a place of damnation for the “too evil” and heaven a place for the “too good”.

Hollywood is not left out on this. Scores of movies have been released and I think may still be released on the end of the “too evil” and the “too good”
They all possess the idea of the place of the end of the good and the bad; But alas! The devil has blinded them to the real truth.

Morality is not the key to heaven. That you’re “too good” does not make you an automatic candidate of the Kingdom. You may be a moralist, philanthropist, social reformer, and a good man in the eye of the world and yet end up “too evil”.

Spirituality is not the key to heaven. You may be spiritual and not be holy. You may be spiritual and not in possession of the Life-Giver. You may be spiritually enlightened and may not be a member of the body of Christ.

The key to heaven is Jesus Christ!
You want to enjoy blissful, happy, joyous after-life?
Have Christ.
Be Christ-compliant.
Take hold of Christ.
Believe Him. Accept Him as your personal Lord and Savior. He is the key that opens the door of heaven.

Jesus Christ is the hot-line to the throne of God. He has made the provision for you to make heaven whoever you are or whatever your situation.
Are you “too good”?
Christ is available for you.
Are you “too evil”?
He died purposely for you. He shed His blood that you been “too evil” may become acceptable unto God.

The greatest, unpardonable sin you can commit is to reject Christ’s offered hand of salvation.
The greatest, uncorrectable mistake or error you can make is to die Christ-less.
The claim that Christ made was that “I assure you, anyone who believes in me already has eternal life. Yes, I am the bread of life!”
He is the ONLY person that has ever made such claim and the ONLY one that will ever make such.

“And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so I, the Son of Man, must be lifted up on a pole, so that everyone who believes in me will have eternal life. For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God did not send his Son into the world to condemn it, but to save it. There is no judgment awaiting those who trust him. But those who do not trust him have already been judged for believing in the only Son of God. Their judgment is based on this fact: The light from heaven came into the world, but they loved darkness more than the light, for their actions are evil…And all who believe in God’s Son have eternal life. Those who don’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life, but the wrath of God remains upon them.” (John 3:14-20, 36 NLT)
