ONE WAY IN

[prophetess m. brignac]

IT IS AMAZING HOW MEN, WITHOUT FAIL ,TEND TO "CANONIZE" OR PLACE ON A PEDESTAL THE DECEASED, NO MATTER HOW INCORRIGIBLE OR TERRIBLE THEY WERE IN LIFE. IT IS OUR NATURE TO ASSUME AND HOPEFULLY, DESIRE THAT THOSE WE LOVE WHO'VE MADE THEIR TRANSITION, ENTER INTO HEAVEN, ESPECIALLY IF THEY SUFFERED WHILE ON THIS EARTH. THE TRUTH ABOUT THE MATTER IS THAT NO MATTER HOW "WONDERFUL" AND "GOOD" A PERSON WAS, NO MATTER HOW GENEROUS, HOW FREELY THEY GAVE TO THE POOR, FED THE HUNGRY, READ TO THE ELDERLY, MARCHED FOR THE RIGHT S OF OTHERS, HOW THET NEVER CURSED, DRANK SMOKED, FORNICATED, OR LIED, WITHOUT CONFESSING CHRIST, THEY SHALL NOT SEE GOD OR PROCEED ON INTO HEAVEN. THERE ARE THOSE WHO'VE PASSED ON, WHO TRIED, AND PUBLICLY ACKNOWLEDGED EVERY "god" AND RELIGION KNOWN , JESUS, THE CHRITO MAN, EXCEPT THE ONE WHO CAN SAVE THEIR SOULS AND GUARANTEE THEM ETERNAL LIFE , JESUS, THE CHRIST, EMOTIONALLY, MANY, HOPE OR "WISH" THEM INTO HEAVEN. GOD IS NO REPECTER OF PERSONS WITH HIS BLESSINGS, NOR IS HE A RESPECTER OF PERSONS WITH HIS COMMANDS, AND THIS VERY SPECIFIC PLAN OF SALVATION IS PRETTY CUT AND DRY, AND THERE ARE NO LOOP HOLES OR 'GRAY" AREAS.THE BIBLE SAYS THAT UNLESS WE ARE BORN AGAIN, THRU THE REGENERATIVE POWER OF THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, WE CAN NOT BE PARTAKERS OF ETERNAL LIFE. HE ALSO SAID THAT UNLESS WE ACTUALLY ENTER INTO COVENANT RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM, THEREBY BECOMING"ENGRAFTED IN", WE CA N NOT SEE JESUS ORENTER INTO HEAVEN, AND THIS MEANS CONFESSING WITH OUR MOUTHS, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AS BOTH LORD AND SAVIOUR, AND BELIEVING IN OUR HEARTS THAT HE IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, WHO CAME TO EARTH IN THE FORM OF A MAN, WAS CRUCIFIED, DIED, WAS RESSURECTED, AND HE NOW SITS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER, MAKING INTERCESSION FOR ALL THAT BELIEVE, AS KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS, THE VERY PROPITIATION OF OUR SINS! NO MATTER HOW GREATLY WE LOVE THOSE WHOM WE'VE LOST, WE ARE DECEIVING OURSELVES, IF WE BELIEVE THAT, UNLESS THERE WAS A LAST "MILLISECOND" SALVATION AND CONVERSION, THEY ARE NOT IMMEDIATELY 'TRANSLATED" INTO A "BEETER PLACE", BECAUSE FOR THOSE WHO DIE IN SIN, AND NOT IN CHRIST, THEIR SUFFERING AND TORMENT HAS JUST BEGUN. WE, AS A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, AND DISCIPLES OF CHRIST, HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO SPEAK THE TRUTH REGARDING THE DISPOSITION OF THE DEAD, ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES. WE'RE NOT HELPING ANYONE, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO REMAIN AND HAVE A WINDOW OF TIME REMAINING TO REPENT, BY TRYING TO "VOTE" OR "REASON" SOMEONE'S SOUL INTO THE PRESENCE OF CHRIST, IN DEATH. IT IS A HARD DIFFICULT TRUTH TO HAVE TO SPEAK OR PREACH, WHEN PEOPLE ARE HURT AND MOURNING, BUT IT'S A TRUTH THAT MAY SPARE THOSE WHO YET WALK AMONGST THE LIVING. I HAD THE OCCASION TO EULOGIZE A FAMILY MEMBER WHO HAD BEEN AN ATHEIST HIS ENTIRE LIFE, AND WHO GREATLY DISDAINED THE THINGS OF GOD, AND DURING THE SERVICE, PEOPLE GOT UP WITH THE "STANDARD FARE" OF HOW GOOD HE WAS AND HOW HE WAS IN HEAVEN, AND I HAD THE ARDUOUS CHORE OF SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT, AS I KNOW IT, AND THERE WERE SOME WHO WERE DISGRUNTLED, BUT THERE WER OTHERS WHO TOOK THE OPPORTUNITY TO EVALUATE THE CONDITION OF THEIR OWN SOULS, WHILE DEATH WAS STILL FRESH AND STARING THEM IN THE FACE AS A VERY REAL REALITY FOR EVERY LIVING ENTITY. IT IS, YET, EASIER FOR A CAMEL TO PASS THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE, THAN FOR A "RICH MAN" TO ENTER INTO HEAVEN. MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON US ALL, AND MAY WE EMBRACE THE REVERENTIAL FEAR OF GOD, STUDY TO DO OUR OWN BUSINESS, AND WORK OUT OUR OWN SALVATION IN FEAR AND IN TREMBLING, WHILE THERE IS STILL DAY, FOR WHEN NIGHT COMETH, NO MAN SHALL WORK! FOR THOSE WHO IDOLIZE THOSE YOU ADMIRE AND ARE SO IMMENSELY FOND OF, MAKE A PERSISITENT PLEA TO THEM TO BOW THEIR KNEE TO CHRIST AND EXHORT THEM TO RECEIVE HIM AS SAVIOUR, WHILE THEY YET HAVE BREATH, BECAUSE ALL THE PRAYER VIGILS, PARADES, MARCHES, AND CEREMONIES ON EARTH WILLNOT RESCUE OR CHANGE THE DESTINY OF THEIR SOULS, ONCE THEYY HAVE PASSED ON INTO ETERNAL JUDGEMENT, IF THEY REJECTED HIM IN LIFE!
