Scripture of the Day - May 28, 2012

Luke 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.


In hell?! What did the rich man do to end up in hell? Did he murder? Did he steal? No. The question should be, "what did he NOT do?" People go about their lives ignoring God, building little kingdoms for themselves here on earth and still expect to enter heaven. God wants a relationship with us, He expects a relationship with us. He has explained very clearly what we must do to enter heaven and if we ignore His instructions we will not enter in. It's as simple as that. Nothing in this world is worth ignoring your relationship with your creator, your heavenly father, the lover of your soul.
