The Big Heat

All over the planet the climate is changing daily, its called weather. Many scientists and experts preview what a warmer world will be like, and we should consider what to do to avert an earthly and human disaster. Rest assured, the big heat is coming.

There is one story recorded in the Bible that is simply i-n-c-r-e-d-i-b-l-e. Luke chapter 16 records the details, you know the story. Two men die; one man is carried to paradise by angels, and one man opens his eyes and finds himself in Hell! Shocking, isn’t it? Angel’s running a taxi service on earth! If the story wasn’t told by Jesus himself, people would simply dismiss it. Almost impossible to believe, but it happened, and we’re privy to an inside look—‘beyond the grave.’ One man was in comfort—and one man was in torments. Torments—plural! He was miserable, and he was in agony, in the fire! Did you pick up on that little detail? In the fire! He begged for someone to bring him just one drop of water, to cool his tongue. His position was dire and unfortunately, unchangeable. He asked if someone would please warn his family to avoid his circumstances. He was informed that they had the very same warnings he had while he was alive. Knowing his situation was fixed, he resigned himself to silence and eternal misery.

Bottom line

If you think this story can’t teach you anything: we leave you one consolation:

“There are rumors that the man in torments was suffering from a dry heat.”
