Monsignor Pope Ping!
Jesus blazed the trail that is available to all of us while still in our physical bodies.
However, as Our Father’s Prayer given to us by Jesus states, “On Earth as it is in Heaven”, soon the coming of Christ will require people to make the journey or perish.
Just as fear is cast out by God’s Love, we cannot exist if holding on to fear when Christ arrives. We also cannot realize the benefit of communion by accepting Christ within us while holding on the fear. Christ is Love. The two can’t exist in the same location.
Holding on to fear, anger, or guilt and being in Christ’s presence is like putting a dense object in the microwave, “It heats up, catches on fire, and perishes.” this is the basis for the concept of hell, which is very real for those who refuse to change.
