The Company One Keeps When One is Miserable

MISERABLE

“Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.”
–1CORINTHIANS 15:33

A discussion was held a few days ago. Most of those involved were either followers of Jesus OR they publicly professed the same.

The topic was “Why do the wicked not change their ways and experience eternal LIFE instead of eternal TORMENT?”

This question was apparently TOO HARD for those involved in the discussion.

MOST of the answers ran along the lines of “It doesn’t make any sense! Why wouldn’t they change?”

The most-agreed-upon answer seemed to be BEST:

Misery loves company.”

NOTHING else was decided.

[One article–which had JUST been written–offered that those who chose a life of sin–which meant they were bound for eternal torment instead of eternal happiness–did so because they were DECEIVED by Satan’s lies.  This is undoubtedly TRUE.]

DOES the reader have ANY information which may help answer this question?

It is not YET too late–although time is surely running out: there is still a LITTLE time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
