[font=arial]● Ecc 1:2-4 . . Meaningless! Futile! complains
the Teacher. Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.
What does a man gain from all his labor at which he toils under
the sun? Generations come and generations go, but the earth
remains forever.
The earth is dumber than a spatula; yet easily outlives its
human potentate whose IQ is infinitely greater. Take for example
the great granite monuments in Yosemite Valley. Tourists to the
valley come, and tourists to the valley go; and one day the grim
reaper catches up with those tourists and they're gone; yet
Yosemite's great stones abide decade after decade; century after
century.
Most children born this day will be dead in 100 years; and
Yosemite won't even notice. Though a child born today may be
intelligent enough to eventually understand quantum mechanics
and play classical guitar like Andrés Segovia; yet Yosemite's
sentinels-- stupid, mute, untalented, and uneducated --will
easily outlast it.
● Ecc 2:15-16 . . I thought in my heart: The fate of the
fool will overtake me also. What then do I gain by being
intelligent? I said in my heart: This is meaningless. For the
intelligent man, like the fool, will not be long remembered-- in
days to come both will be forgotten. Like the fool, the
intelligent man too must die.

[font=arial]Judas goats are trained for use in slaughterhouses
and herd control. In stockyards, they lead sheep to slaughter;
and are also used to lead other animals to specific pens and on
to trucks. The term is a reference to the biblical traitor Judas
Iscariot.
The phrase has also been used to describe goats utilized to
locate feral goats targeted for eradication. They're usually
outfitted with a transmitter, painted in red and then released.
The goats then locate the remaining herds of feral goats,
allowing hunters with tracking devices to find and exterminate
them. The red paint marks the goat with the transmitter so the
hunters know which one not to shoot.
You know what can be even worse than going to hell? Your own
children following you there: and they trusted you.
Here's a sort of cute story I heard once. I don't know if it's
true but I guess it's probable.
A farmer went out to the barn in the dead of night after a
snowfall to sneak a pull from his liquor bottle. Just as he got
to the barn door he heard something behind him. Turning, the
farmer recognized his little boy coming towards him. In
amazement he asked the little guy how he ever managed to find
his way out to the barn in the dark. His son replied: It was
easy; I walked in your footprints.
One can only imagine the anguish that parents in the netherworld
must feel knowing that they inadvertently raised their children
in an ideology that led them down the road to hell and all the
while sincerely believing themselves doing the right thing. In
other words: they actually Judas-goated their children to follow
mom and dad down there. For some families, the only thing they
have to look forward to in the afterlife is a sad reunion in
fire and despair.

[font=arial]● Luke 16:25 . . Abraham said: Son, remember
I should think that one of the negative aspects of hell is
memory. How people down there retain their memories sans the
brain cells they left behind with their corpse, I don't know;
but they do, just as the rich man in that story is able to
experience thirst sans a flesh and blood tongue.
The older one gets, the more memories they accumulate, and many
of those memories haunt us with terrible regret. However, people
in hell not only have to cope with their bad memories, but also
the good ones too, and I should think it's remembering the good
things they enjoyed in life that makes their situation only
worse in the heat.
If everybody was born and raised in hell; and never once
ventured out; that would be the only life they've ever known, so
they wouldn't have a clue what it's like to really live. For
them the old maxim "Ignorance is bliss" would certainly hold
true.

[font=arial]● Gen 6:5 . . God saw that the wickedness of
man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the
thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
The thoughts of the heart are somewhat different than the
thoughts that go through the mind; and are often blocked out,
viz: "repressed"; defined as a mental process by which
distressing thoughts, memories, or impulses that may give rise
to anxiety are excluded from consciousness and left to operate
in the unconscious, i.e. the subconscious which, in Freud's
opinion, is a repository for socially unacceptable ideas, wishes
or desires, traumatic memories, and painful emotions.
● Matt 15:19 . . Out of the heart proceed evil thoughts
So then, it's not how people's minds work that defines them, no,
it's how their heart works that really defines them; and
people's hearts are easily capable of hoodwinking their own
consciousness.
● Jer 17:9 . .The human heart is most deceitful and
desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?
God is able to peer into the heart's contents. That means He
will be confronting people with things about themselves that
they suppressed and kept under wraps all their lives; and that's
why I sometimes say only a fool would take their chances with
God. They have no clue the extent of the psychological tsunami
they're walking into.

[font=arial]There was a time when everyone went to the
netherworld when they passed away: Jesus too because when he
passed away on the cross; Jesus didn't go up, rather, he went
down. (Matt 12:40, John 20:17, Acts 7:25-31).
When we take into consideration everybody who ever lived and
died on this planet beginning with Adam until the day when
people started going to heaven; then we're talking about a very
large number of people. How did they all fit in the netherworld
without overcrowding?
Well; it's evident that people exist in the afterlife as
spirits. (Heb 12:22-23, 1Pet 3:18-20).
The feral man of Mark 5:1-13 and Luke 8:26-33 was possessed by a
community of evil spirits who labeled themselves Legion.
Webster's defines a legion as the principal unit of the Roman
army comprising 3,000 to 6,000 foot soldiers with cavalry.
The legion of spirits that Christ exorcised from the man went
out and possessed a herd of about 2,000 swine. That's a pretty
good example of how spirits take up no room in the physical
world; nor do they crowd each other. All 3,000-6,000 of those
spirits managed to fit inside the bodily cargo area of just that
one man.
That being the case, then the netherworld need not be a void.
People can exist down there in solid rock because spirits don't
need space, they just need a place.
NOTE: Any attempt to drill down to the heart of the Earth in
search of the netherworld would be futile because it isn't a
physical world, rather, it's a spirit world. Drilling could, and
would, pass right through the very heart of the netherworld and
still not find it.

[font=arial]OBJECTION: Classical Christianity's hell doesn't
make sense that a loving God would torment people in a fiery
prison forever and ever.
REPONSE: Human common sense is produced by a 3-pound lump of
flabby organic tissue; and not even all three of those pounds
are devoted to cognitive processes. On top of that, those three
pounds are 60% fat. That fatty, flabby, organic tissue can alter
one's personality with little more than an aneurism or a blow to
the head.
Just how sensible can a fatty, flabby, organic sense really be
compared to the sense of a supernatural being with enough
intelligence to invent, design, and construct a fully
functioning cosmos with all of its forms of life, matter, and
energy? A fatty, flabby, organic sense isn't even a dunce in
comparison: it's the sense of a paramecium; if even that.
● 1Cor 3:20 . .The Lord knows that the thoughts of the
wise are empty.
Well; that's certainly not a very flattering evaluation. It's as
much as saying that, in God's opinion, the smartest among
humanity basically consists of air heads; and if that's His
evaluation of the best and brightest, then where does God rank
those of us with an average IQ?

[font=arial]The human body is fragile; so much so that even
something as thin as the air can snuff it out.
● Isa 40:6-7 . . All flesh is grass, and all its grace is
like the blossom of the field. The grass shall dry out, the
blossom shall wilt, for a wind from the Lord has blown upon it;
behold the people is grass.
According to a report released on March 25, 2014 by the World
Health Organization; air pollution kills, on average, seven
million people per annum; and is linked to one in eight deaths
(12.5%) world-wide. Think of it. That percentage represents
approximately 941.16 million deaths linked to air pollution per
annum out of a currently estimated 7.53+ billion people.
According to a report by the public health agency of the United
Nations; an estimated 4.3 million people in developing countries
died in 2012 as a result of indoor air pollution, mostly from
cooking inside with coal or wood stoves.
Air pollution is so lethal because it exacerbates other
conditions like cardio vascular diseases, cancer, and
respiratory illnesses. Were people with those conditions
permitted to breathe clean air free of hazardous chemicals and
toxic particulates, they would live longer; thus the arrival
times of many tagged for the infernal regions would be delayed
so they could enjoy life a bit longer before beginning an
eternity of perpetual anguish.

[font=arial]The wrath of God is interesting. For example:
● Isa 13:9 . . Behold, the day of Christ comes-- cruel;
with both wrath and fierce anger
The Hebrew word for "wrath" in that statement is 'ebrah
(eb-raw') which indicates an outburst of passion. In other
words: the wrath of God won't be weeping big wet crocodile tears
while it's slamming the dead at the Great White Throne event
depicted at Rev 20:11-15; no, they will be terminated with
extreme prejudice; viz: their judgment will be administered with
choler. (cf. Isa 63:1-6, Rev 19:15)
Webster's defines "fierce" as a behavior exhibited by humans and
animals that inspires terror because of the wild and menacing
aspect of fury in attack. Ferocity is an aspect commonly seen
among roaring, snarling lions savagely attacking prey. There's
neither sportsmanship nor sympathy in ferocity; only sheer
terror, brutality, and blood lust.
"cruel" is defined as: disposed to inflict pain or suffering;
viz: devoid of humane feelings
● Heb 10:27 . . A certain fearful expectation of . . .
fiery indignation
"fiery indignation" is quite a bit more severe than ordinary
indignation. It speaks of someone who is seriously ticked off;
and so angry that they're actually red in the face.
There are people out there in pews all around the world who have
been so coddled by sappy versions of Christianity that they have
no concept of the magnitude of the lethal tsunami of rage and
violence coming their way to get them.
Another interesting aspect of the wrath of God is the person
appointed to administer it-- none other than the sweet little
baby away in a manger.
● John 5:22-23 . .The Father judges no one, but has
committed all judgment to the Son, that all should honor the Son
just as they honor the Father.
● Acts 17:31 . . For God has set a day when he will judge
the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given
proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead.
● Rev 19:15 . . He shall rule them with a rod of iron: and
he treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty
God.

to say that God's intentions are good and"There is no way in
HELL" (pun intended) does HE wants to send anyone to HELL.
As we see in this passage:
Matt. 23:37..."O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the
prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often
would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen
gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!"
