This blog entry is made to show a macro view of the Biblical Results of Apostasy.
Introduction
Jesus Christ is not a respecter of persons. He came to save souls not lives. He came to satisfy the law of justice. To be the last sacrifice as payment for our sins.
Discipline will be handed out in this life to his faithful. (Hebrews 12:6-7)
But God himself is not going to torture anyone ever if we don’t choose him: that’s what Hell is for.
Hell is a situation we put ourselves into by not repenting to follow Jesus. Analogy: you are about to fall into a volcano which won’t kill you. It will torture you for eternity but Jesus offers you his hand to pull you to safety but you refuse his hand because your principles tell you the whole paradigm is flawed. You refuse because It’s based on faith or because the idea of God setting up the plan to this result is too horrible to imagine or both. As far as people who never heard of the one True God? We need to bring them the gospel.
Hell is the unavoidable result of sin. The everlasting #punishment#.
This guy presents it better than me.
“Jesus plainly sets this forth in His message on the sheep and goats: “And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” (Matt. 25:46; italics added). The punishment of the lost in hell is coextensive to the bliss of the righteous in heaven—both are everlasting.”

Either way this question is moot for the purposes of this blog entry; Whether souls be Annihilated or into Eternal Punishment; makes no difference to me. I want no part of either. I choose the Hand of Christ rather than disappoint my God.
But seriously, what about those who died having never had the choice to make? The blame is their ancestors who failed to pass on the Gospel, not theirs and I have faith in God’s mercy to do the right thing. 2nd Peter 3:9.
Blog Entry:
What is clear to me is that God has destroyed whole civilizations for “evolving” humanism in which societies completely fall away from the Truth of God and place our accomplishments on par with God’s creations. But keep reading.
He asks us to worship him so we can exist with him for all Eternity because not doing so condemns us to an eternal existence without his light. Otherwise known as hell to be euthanized via annihilation as some scholars believe.
What we need to remember us that he loves us and wants us to return to him in heaven not be outcast because of our stupidity and arrogance.
God is Enlightenment and existence is hell without his light. He doesn’t want slavery so gave us Free Will. Some might suggest that this choice is under duress but he’s not here with a gun at our heads. We choose by faith. To follow Lucifer and the immediate gratification he provides and with it the second death or we choose God, temporary suffering but an eternity of joy in heaven. Either choice is not without Just rewards making each a valid contract.
Historical View of Apostasy.
God created Adam and his society existed until a point where their arrogance erased true knowledge of him and his plan of salvation.
He destroyed those who fell away and who has lost the ability to choose him.
Next after Noah’s civilization became corrupt he made a Covenant with Abraham. Then when they Became corrupt he sent the Savior to Save all Mankind. Now we are again rejecting him. What do you think the result will be? Check it out.

Jesus Christ made it easy for us to be saved. He satisfied the law of justice for us and will wipe the record clean of our crimes against man and God. All we have to do is accept his gift.
It’s true that most Christian churches today are corrupt and preach that we have to do things and perform certain rituals regularly to be worthy of his gift.
They are just as confused by Lucifer as the Israelites were when they were scattered and just as confused as the Jews were when they had Christ crucified. And they give power to those who point out the Hypocrisy of it all. And then there are those who pervert Christianity and other so-called religions to take control of people, turning educated people away from God in general.
