Just me trying to be honest with God.

If I were to imagine Hell, it would be the place where you were continually bored. Erich Fromm

“In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” Matt.13 ESV

I believe in Hell. I have been there even if it was only in the mental anguish of sin’s selfishness. Hell is home to the selfish. C. S. Lewis vividly wrote that life now can be either the upper reaches of Hell or the lower reaches of Heaven. The bitter fruit of a self-centered life produces the former and love always the latter. Those who aggressively love are never bored. Those who are selfish always are, even when they are doing something fun. 7/23/2011 Conversations Within ts (Oak Mountain, AL)
