An Eternal Perspective

When we arrive in God’s kingdom, “…what right will we have to be there? Did we not in our sins take part in that unholy rebellion which rashly sought to dethrone the glorious King of creation? And did we not in times past walk according the course of this world, according to the evil prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience? And did we not all at once live in the lusts of our flesh? And were we not children of wrath, even as others?

"But we who were one time enemies and alienated in our minds through wicked works shall then see God face to face and His name shall be on our foreheads. We who earned banishment shall enjoy communion; we who deserve the pains of hell shall know the bliss of heaven. And all through the tender mercy of God.” –Tozer
