| Greg Laurie Glimpses Into The Afterlife, Says Those In Hell Cannot Blame God For Their Plight
April 19, 2016 by SkyWatch Editor
 The angels carried Lazarus to heaven, and it would appear that one of the purposes of angels is to usher believers into God’s presence when they die. The moment believers take their last breath on earth, they’ll take their first breath in heaven. That is the great hope and comfort for all Christians. The other man, however, went into a place of judgment. He faced the consequences of his sin in a place called Hades. The Bible says he was in torment there, and the fact that the man spoke of torment seems to indicate that suffering is a very real thing in the hereafter. The impossibility of crossing from one side to another, from a place of comfort “to Abraham’s side” (verse 22 NIV), where Lazarus was, to the place of torment, where this other man was, suggests that a person’s eternal destiny is settled here and now and not in some future world. Some people think they’ll work it out later. But they had better work it out now. It would be like saying, “I’m going to board that plane, and once I’m in flight, I’ll determine where I’m going to go.” No, you’re going where that plane goes. You work it out ahead of time when you buy your ticket. Once you have boarded the plane and it takes off, you are going to the predetermined destination. (READ MORE) |

| The title is a bit deceiving! Greg is quoting the WORD. If we all read the WORD we would all have the same glimpse. So Greg is not actually having a glimpse in the afterlife....Everybody decides where they go.....like it or not! God does not make you go there, you do yourself! | |
