You reject all evidence of God's love so the only thing you have to look forward to is God's divine hatred, fury and wrath upon you forever...unless you repent of your evil, sinful wickedness you shall perish...

All will be pure, unmingled happiness—or pure, unmingled misery!

("Life's Shortness and Vanity", A funeral sermon by Samuel Davies)

"Then they will go away to eternal punishment—but the righteous to eternal life!" Matthew 25:46

In this present world, our good and evil are blended. Our happiness has some bitter ingredients, and our miseries have some agreeable mitigations.

But in the eternal world, good and evil shall be entirely and forever separated! All will be pure, unmingled happiness—or pure, unmingled misery!

But what gives infinite importance to these joys and sorrows is—that they are enjoyed or suffered in the eternal world, and they are themselves eternal. Eternal joys! Eternal pains! Joys and pains that will last as long as the King eternal and immortal will live to distribute them! As long as our immortal spirits will live to feel them! Oh what joys and pains are these!

And these eternal joys or pains, my friends—are awaiting every one of us! These pleasures, or these pains—are felt this moment by all our friends and acquaintances who have died before us! And in a little, little while—you and I must feel them!

Alas! What then, have we to do with time and earth? Are the pleasures and pains of this world—worthy to be compared with eternal pleasures and pains? "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity!" The enjoyments and sufferings, the labors and pursuits, the laughter and tears of the present state—are all nothing in comparison. What is the loss of an estate, or of a dear relative—compared to the loss of a blissful immortality?

And if our heavenly inheritance is secure—what does it matter, even if we should be reduced into Job's forlorn situation? What does it matter, even if we are poor, sickly, racked with pains, and submerged in every human misery? Heaven will more than make amends for all!

But if we have no evidences of a title to heaven, the sense of these transitory distresses may be swallowed up in the fear of the horrible miseries of eternity!

Alas! What does it avail—that we play away a few years in mirth and gaiety, in grandeur and pleasure—if when these few years have fled, we lift up our eyes in hell, tormented in eternal flames!

Oh what are all these transitory things—to a candidate for eternity! An heir of everlasting happiness—or everlasting misery!

If we spend our immortality in eternal misery—what sorry comfort will it be that we laughed, and played, and frolicked away our few years upon earth!

As Christians, we are to be nobly indifferent to all the little amusements and pleasures of so short an earthly life.

Perpetual fuel to the flames of hell!

(Thomas Brooks, "London's Lamentations" 1670)

Our earthly fire destroys and consumes whatever is cast
into it. It turns all combustibles into ashes. But the fire of
hell is not of that nature. The fire of hell consumes nothing
which is cast into it. It rages—but it does not consume or
destroy either bodies or souls.

"Men will seek death, but will not find it; they will long
to die, but death will elude them." Revelation 9:6

They shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
They shall cry to the mountains to fall upon them and
to crush them to nothing! They shall desire that . . .
the fire which burns them—would consume them to nothing,
the worm which feeds on them—would gnaw them to nothing,
the devils which torment them—would tear them to nothing!
They shall cry to God, who first made them out of nothing,
to reduce them to that first nothing from whence they
came! But "their Maker has no compassion on them,
and their Creator shows them no favor." Isaiah 27:11

They shall always be burned—but never consumed.

Ah, how well would it be with the damned, if in the fire
of hell, they might be consumed to ashes! But this is their
misery—they shall be ever dying, and yet never die; their
bodies shall be always a-burning—but never a-consuming!
It is dreadful to be perpetual fuel to the flames of hell!
What misery can compare to this—for infernal fire to be still
a-preying upon damned sinners, and yet never making an
end of them! The fierce and furious flames of hell shall burn
—but never annihilate, the bodies of the damned. In hell
there is no cessation of fire burning, nor of matter burned.
Neither flames nor smoke shall consume or choke the
impenitent. Both the infernal fire, and the burning of the
bodies of reprobates in that fire—shall be preserved by
the miraculous power of God!

It has been said that General Douglas MacArthur would not allow missionaries into Japan at the end of the Second World War.

It has been said that General Douglas MacArthur would not allow missionaries into Japan at the end of the Second World War. It was the first time in known history that Japan had suffered complete and utter humiliating defeat and that because of that they were ripe for the Gospel and Japan would have been the most powerful Christian nation today if MacArthur had allowed the missionaries in. Maybe, just maybe, God will use this most terrible event Japan has experienced since the Second World War to bring about His purposes and that Christians from around the world, not just Americans, will go to Japan to not only assist the Japanese physically but to proclaim the full-orbed, doctrinally sound, biblical Gospel. May God make the way smooth and may God open the hearts and minds of the Japanese people to receive the Gospel, including the Japanese President.

You did not take my advice in my first comment to you and you never even studied the links I left for you. I am just throwing pearls before swine and wasting my time responding to you any further unless you repent...

I looked at those three portions of Scriptures you left, what's your point? Arminians and haters of Reformed Theology have a field day twisting and misinterpreting them as well as 1 John 2:2 and a multitude of other Scriptures they use to sinfully and wrongfully bash Calvinism/Reformed theology with. Be very careful where you head...

Every single human being resists the Holy Spirit while they are dead in their trespasses and sins, slaves to sin and will NOT come to the light least their evil deeds be exposed. Everyone resists the Holy Spirit until He overcomes their resistance at in consequence of the new birth, then they willingly and most gladly believe and receive the LORD Jesus Christ. See John 1:12-13 and the whole of John Chapter 3. Who are those that receive Christ in John 1? What/Who are they born of and what/who are they not born of there?
