There doesn't seem to be anything in this world that isn't crazy expensive.
The shortages that have come upon us through the past three years have just begun to escalate; it is becoming harder to have our basic needs met. The quality of everything that we've known and loved just isn't the same anymore.
And what you're being sold is never worth the hefty price you pay.
This thought has hung around in my head for some time. I read and observe a lot. I can't help but take notice of this gradual acceptance of evil. Society is being continuously groomed to make light of something that is no joke.
Hollywood paints the picture of Hell as a place that is one big party where everyone will be able to freely continue their life of sin.
The presence of evil here on Earth is welcomed, encouraged, and accepted. The Bible vehemently warns against doing so.
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" (Isaiah 5:20 KJV)
Hell is a truly awful place. Many people don't realize that eternity spent there is total separation from God and everything that He provides.
Therefore, not an ounce of rest will be found there.
No air will be found in Hell, because God is the breath of life.
There will be no light, because Hell is a place of eternal darkness.
Hell is a place filled with inescapable flames of torment.. there will be no source of the comfort or love that only He can give.
That's quite the hefty price tag.
The penalty of sin is never worth the price you pay. Christ died for YOU and paid the debt of that sin. He gave His life because He loves YOU.
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." (Romans 5:8-9 KJV)
It is often said that the best things in life are free. The gift of salvation doesn't come with a cost. The freedom and the peace found through trusting in Jesus remains incomparable to anything this world could offer.
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23 KJV)
The improvement in quality of life will always be worth it.
You don't have to face an eternity in Hell, but you will by continually choosing to reject Christ. One day, it will be too late to change your mind. Tomorrow is never promised.
"Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." (James 4:14 KJV)
Eternity with Jesus will always be worth it. He loves YOU. He is seeking to save YOU. Choose to seek Him while He may be found.
"Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:6-7 KJV)
