How can you say there's no heaven and
hell?!
Q: You mentioned that there can be no
heaven or hell, because we deserve not
to be judged for making decisions due to
our limited abilities to make choices.
Our God gives us free will as a loving
gift so that we can choose freely how we
can return his love back to him. If we
choose to do things that go against the
proper order of the universe, which is
under gods control and loving care, than
we go against his love. We have chosen
evil, which is the rejection of God’s
love.
So, if one person lives their life
choosing to love God by using their free
will to make choices that are acts of
love back to god, while someone else
makes choices that reject Gods love,
then it makes logical sense that both of
these people do not deserve the same
reward as they depart this life.
It makes me sad when someone
communicates to the world that there
really is no heaven or hell. News
flash...we are accountable and you and I
will be held accountable for every
choice and decision we make throughout
our lives. Man is not God. He is a
creature made by God…to love his creator
who made him as an act of pure love.
Mike you seem like a very nice
person…but you are traveling a dangerous
path and, unfortunately, taking others
with you.
A: I know that none of what you wrote
was meant to sound insulting, and by the
same token, neither is any of this.
I write from a different perspective of
reality than I feel you can relate to.
You have many root assumptions that you
do not see as assumptions. For instance,
it is clear to me that you assume we
live only one lifetime. You assume God
is separate from us. You assume God has
human tendencies. You assume that evil
exists as a force of its own. You assume
that there are victims in this reality.
And more. I don’t hold any such
assumptions.
Now, of course, you will say that my
views are the assumptions, whereas your
views are the “gospel” (no pun
intended). Yet I would then tell you
that my views, first off, come from my
heart and feelings, my intuition and
observations, my direct experiences and
experiments, my love and curiosity of
life – from inside myself – to me the
ultimate source. Then I would offer that
my views can handily explain, in
excruciating detail, virtually all of
life’s issues, causes, problems, and
solutions. And while I do not have the
kind of physical proof that you might
like, other than countless souls who
feel the same things in their hearts,
neither do you have any physical proof
of yours.
Further, my explanations all have “happy
endings,” yours, if you are honest,
would have mostly horrific, dire
endings, for any soul who does not
worship his or her supposed creator (you
named this as our purpose), would suffer
an unimaginably harsh punishment. And
surely you would admit that there are
scant few people on this earth who spend
any time loving back their creator in
the way you suggest we should. In fact,
I expect your seemingly biblical
interpretation of reality would cast
every
soul into hell who hasn’t had the good
fortune of confessing immediately prior
to their death.
So, with our different perspectives, to
give you a point by point rebuttal,
while easy enough to do, would be
extremely futile. Perhaps the only point
I would like to specifically address is
your assumption that I am “taking people
with me.” I take no one anywhere. I
write and speak about the truth as I see
it, and people do with it whatever they
please (freewill, as you put it). And if
you had any idea of the number of people
who joyfully write me daily, often with
tears, they claim, running down their
face onto their keyboard as they type,
thankful that I have given them hope and
shown them a light they always suspected
was there, I think you’d rephrase the
“dangerous path” comment.
I’ll look forward to meeting you, one
day, “in that big party in the sky,”
where, according to my interpretation of
reality, we will all joyfully revisit.
