Does Everyone Want To Go To Heaven?
The title of this post may seem like a strange question. I know I want to go to heaven. I'll bet you want to go to heaven. Everyone does right? Sadly, no. Throughout the history of Earth, there have been people who don't. For example. Atheists. Satanists. Someone who hates God for some reason. It is sad. The point made in this video, is this. If someone goes to Hell, it is not because God wants them to go there. The Bible says God is love. It also says that God wants all to be saved. These two facts fit together. God loves us, and He wants us to be with Him forever. However, if a human being, with free will, rejects God, God gives them what they asked for. Thankfully, this sobering information doesn't take away from our mission. According to the great commission, we shouldn't focus on the sad realities of sinful humanity. Instead let us daily focus on proclaiming the good news of Jesus!
Verse for Consideration:
1 Timothy 2: 1-6
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man[a] Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.
