Worked for Bush... He got to enjoy all the coke he could snort, not to mention the drunk-driving, and yet still reaps the benefits of being self-righteous. I'm sold!

No, sinning constantly leads to more sin and which sin kills you? Its far better to seek ways to avoid sinning which is missing the mark, so that you don't die before you have had a chance to repent. Repent, means asking for forgiveness again and again and again, but those who sin, or miss the mark on purpose will tire of asking for forgiveness and thus by their own choosing, fall away from Gods love.

This is a serious question for you, and I ask this in all friendship: How do you know that you will be given the time to repent? People get shot just standing on street corners these days. Never mind ever getting into a car or crossing a street!
"Today is the day of salvation"...please, think carefully.

You know how much longer you're going to live?
That's awesome, since I don't know how I'm going to leave this world, much less when.
Yet, you assume you have the rest of your life ahead of you? I'm sure a few thousand people thought the same thing as they were riding the elevator to go home after working in the World Trade Center on September 10...

Its always like that -- its like the man/woman in jail for killing their kids or a slew of people. Towards the end of their lives, they always tend to find God or Gods (whatever path they choose). Its amazing how the holy rollers will open their arms wide and accept them into their fold.

As long as the sins have no real consequences, you might as well just keep doing them and blow off the holy roller business altogether.

That's where a relationship with Jesus comes into play. Would you purposely hurt anybody you love? No, of course not. As you grow in your faith and get closer to God; as you see Him answar prayer and work in your life, you will have a deep loving relationship with Him. And when that happens, there's no way you would puposely sin because you know it hurts Him and you.

No one knows the hour or the day their soul will be required of them. Once one knows the truth they are playing with fire to wait. There comes a point where waiting is not an option. God is not only loving ...he is also just. Reject him and he will reject you. If God came for you right this second are you ready???

Yea, if you can make it another few years. Isn't that taking a huge gamble with Heaven and hell. I wouldn't want to do that. Besides, God might not call you in a few years. This may be your only chance.

When jesus died on the cross, through all his agony an suffering he said of his persecutors 'forgive them lord, for they know not what they do' and so they were forgiven. God forgives all but not before they have been punished, what goes around comes around, it doesnt matter if you repent or not
