which, being translated, means that because he didn't "receive Jesus Christ as his personal lord and savior" than slammed the pearly gates in his face, is that right?
ugh, no wonder fundamentalists are all miserable.
“than slammed” should be “then God slammed”, for those of you in Rio Linda.

Spoken from Oprah’s Winfrey’s world, were choices have no consequences, anyone with actual convictions is a pariah and everything turns out just okie-dokie in the end.
A couple of brief notes. One, the number of people who have been revived from what was considered “death” status and who have recounted similar stories of a peaceful, enveloping light and awareness is high enough to be considered seriously. And, O2 deprivation does similar things - - so....
Secondly, your tagline indicates you may enjoy Second Samuel 22:43.
;-)
Phl 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Phl 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Phl 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth;
Phl 2:11 And [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
ugh, no wonder fundamentalists are all miserable. "
For those of us who willingly confess that Jesus Christ is our Lord now, it will be a happy day when Phl 2:10 is full filled. However, the miserable ones will be those who are forced to bow & confess on that day.
