Mankind’s engineering capabilities have grown so far that we are considering building bridges across oceans – once considered impossible due to the magnitude, extreme climatic variations and ocean currents. Often as technological advances are made we forget that there are limits placed that no man is allowed to cross.
One such boundary is found in the gospel (Luke 16.19-31) account of the rich man and the poor man Lazarus. In verse 26 we read Father Abraham speaking to the rich man, ‘between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here (heaven) to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there (hell) to us.’
Your ultimate destination is determined by your choice of a savior. Jesus said, “I am the way… No one comes to the Father except through me”. How more clear can He make himself? Those who reject Jesus’ e offer of salvation will also be rejected and join the rich man in the above the story in hell. No amount of prayers, masses or indulgences purchased can bridge the gap for you after you have died, so make your decision to obey God’s command and receive Jesus Christ into your life today. What if this very night your life will be demanded from you! Make sure you are on the right side of the chasm.e
