It is the title of an incredibly moving sermon preached about 150 years ago by a great evangelist. (Maybe Finney, I'm not sure). The short version. The Almighty is incredibly forgiving, and wonderfully longsuffering. but this patience will not go on forever. (He had read Revelation). Judgement WILL come, and when it does, you will wish you had behaved, but it will be WAY TOO LATE. ( you might have seen the billboard.... "He is coming... and He is NOT happy" ) It was kind of like that.

One of the most effective and influential sermons ever composed. It would be best to read it on your own.
Written in 1741 by Jonathan Edwards. Here is a link to the text of it below.

My grandmother who I didn't know very well influenced me a lot regarding Jesus. She wrote that very passage in a bible that I read as a teen. It stuck with me. When she died she saw "heaven." She described a beautiful garden, you've heard this before but what is interesting is she started waving and calling out peoples names, all "dead!"

And we "Godbots" want all to be saved, this is why we preach to you "satanbots."

Dust on a scale! But a loving God would plan ahead of time and provide a way out, and he did, in thte NAME OF JESUS!

The godbots hope their mythical "god" will torture nonbelievers.
It was written by an evangelist? Hmph.

"You have two options. Do as I say or burn forever in a realm of eternal anguish and torment."
"By the way, I love you."
