Gerry Gutierrez' Update
Witnessing in the XXI Century.
Today I aim to ruin the plans of one of my best friends of going to Hell. For over half century he has showed me loyalty, faithful and strong friendship. He was exposed to Christian witness long before I was but he never could get over the idea of Heaven as a happy place of never-ending worship and prayer. He found Heaven as a boring place so that he would preferred hang out with friends and have good times of laughter and fun.
BTW worship and prayer is the most joyful and natural activity only for those who have come to know the Grace of God from First Hand experience. Only to the redeemed will “Eternity” not be long enough to sing His praises.
My friend loves me and he has repeatedly shown me his love and friendship making him and his family ready to attend my needs. You might be asking by now, “How are you aiming to ruin his plans to go to Hell?”
Since he loves me and I love him, the working ground of my strategy is simple. I will ask him: “How could you have fun with family and friends when I will not be there?” You are miscalculating my friend. Because our separation will not be temporal and seasonal but eternal.
I think of myself weeping without comfort at the thought of you and the impossibility to say a word of comfort or even offer a glass of fresh water for your unquenchable thirst. Reconsider please the direction you are taking in the here and now that determines the eternal here after.
Do it for my sake. Do it for your sake! Do It for your family and friends. Above all, do it for the sake of Jesus who does love you and gave himself for you and for me. Let the Lord open your eyes to see the true beauty of true life eternal in Heaven. Do not be wise in your own eyes, fear the Lord and shun evil…. But do it now.
