The Great FIXED Gulf Parable

Luke 16:19-31

“There WAS A Certain Rich Man, Who WAS Clothed IN Purple AND Fine Linen, AND Fared Sumptuously Every Day.  BUT There WAS A Certain Beggar, Named Lazarus, Full OF Sores, Who WAS LAID AT His (The Certain Rich Man’s) Gate, DESIRING TO BE FED, WITH The Crumbs, Which FELL FROM The Rich Man’s Table.  Moreover, The Dogs CAME AND LICKED His (Lazarus’) Sores.

SO IT WAS, That The Beggar (Lazarus) DIED, AND WAS CARRIED BY The Angels (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels) TO Abraham’s Bosom (Heaven).  The Rich Man ALSO DIED AND WAS BURIED.  AND BEING IN TORMENTS, IN Hades (Hell), He (The Rich Man) LIFTED UP His Eyes AND SAW Abraham AFAR OFF, AND Lazarus IN His (Abraham’s) Bosom (Heaven).”

“THEN, He (The Rich Man) CRIED AND Said, ‘Father Abraham, Have Mercy ON Me, AND SEND Lazarus, That He (Lazarus) May Dip The Tip of His (Lazarus’) Finger IN Water AND Cool My (The Rich Man’s) Tongue; For I AM TORMENTED IN THIS FLAME (IN Hell).’  BUT Abraham SAID, ‘Son, REMEMBER, That IN Your Lifetime, YOU (The Rich Man) Received Your Good Things, AND LIKEWISE Lazarus Evil Things; BUT NOW, He (Lazarus) IS COMFORTED (IN Heaven) AND YOU (The Rich Man) ARE TORMENTED (IN Hell).

AND BESIDES ALL THIS, BETWEEN Us (Abraham and Lazarus) AND YOU (The Rich Man), THERE IS A GREAT GULF, FIXED, SO THAT THOSE (Believers) WHO WANT TO PASS FROM HERE (Heaven), TO YOU (IN Hell) Can NOT, NOR CAN Those (Unbelievers) FROM THERE (Hell), PASS TO Us (IN Heaven).’

“THEN, He (The Rich Man) Said, ‘I Beg YOU (Abraham) Therefore, Father, That YOU (Abraham) WOULD SEND Him (Lazarus) TO My Father’s House, For I (The Rich Man) Have Five (5) Brothers, That He (Lazarus) May TESTIFY TO Them (The Rich Man’s Brothers), LEST They ALSO COME TO THIS PLACE OF TORMENT (Hell).’

Abraham SAID TO Him (The Rich Man), ‘They (The Rich Man’s Brothers) HAVE Moses AND The Prophets; LET Them (The Rich Man’s Brothers) HEAR Them (Moses AND The Prophets).’  AND He (The Rich Man) Said, ‘NO, Father Abraham; BUT IF ONE (Lazarus) GOES TO Them (The Rich Man’s Brothers), FROM The Dead, They WILL REPENT.’  BUT He (Abraham) SAID TO Him (The Rich Man), ‘IF They (The Rich Man’s Brothers) DO NOT HEAR Moses AND The Prophets, NEITHER WILL They (The Rich Man’s Brothers) BE PERSUADED, THOUGH ONE (Lazarus) RISE, FROM The Dead.’”

Fellow Believers, This Parable IS A STERN REMINDER OF HOW IMPORTANT IT IS, FOR EACH OF Us, TO Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ, WITH Our Spouses, Our Children, Our Family, Our Friends, Our Church Family, Our Co-Workers, Our Neighbors, Our Cyber World Friends, AND Even The Strangers We Encounter in Our Daily Lives!

Imagine, IF YOU (Believers) WILL, BEING IN Heaven AND Being Able TO Look Across The Great FIXED Gulf, INTO Hell, AND SEEING All The People (FALSE Believers and Unbelievers), YOU ENCOUNTERED, During Your Lifetime, That YOU Did NOT Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ WITH, AND Them (FALSE Believers and Unbelievers) Being Able TO See YOU, AND Them (FALSE Believers and Unbelievers) Asking YOU, WHY DID YOU (Believers) NOT TELL Me ABOUT Jesus Christ?

WHY DID YOU (Believers) NOT TELL Me (FALSE Believers and Unbelievers), That I MUST Acknowledge GOD Almighty’s Amazing Saving GRACE AND I MUST Accept GOD Almighty’s FREE GIFT OF Salvation, That I MUST Ask Jesus Christ TO COME INTO My Heart, THROUGH The Holy Spirit, AND TAKE CONTROL OF My Life, That I May Worship GOD Almighty, THE ONE AND ONLY GOD, THERE IS OR EVER HAS BEEN, AND That BY DOING SO, I BECOME A Fellow Child OF GOD Almighty; AND CO-HEIR, WITH Jesus Christ, OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD Almighty?

IF YOU (Believers) Had Told Me, THESE THINGS, Perhaps, I (FALSE Believers and Unbelievers) WOULD BE IN Heaven, INSTEAD OF THE LAKE OF FIRE (The Second Death)!

Fellow Believers, LET’s LOOK AT A Worst Case Scenario:

The Being Caught Up Together OCCURS, Dead Believers AND Living Believers ARE SNATCHED AWAY, BY Jesus Christ, FROM This World (Satan’s World) INTO Heaven, While The REST OF Mankind (Yet-To-Be-Believers, FALSE Prophets, FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) REMAINS, HERE, IN This World (Satan’s World), AND They MUST Experience The Great Tribulation!

Now, AMONG THESE People (Yet-To-Be-Believers, FALSE Prophets, FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) ARE Your Spouses, Your Children, Your Family, Your Friends, Your Church Family, Your Co-Workers, Your Neighbors, Your Cyber World Friends, AND Even The Strangers YOU Encountered IN Your Lifetime.

NOW, DO YOU GET THE POINT OF The Great FIXED Gulf Parable?

For Myself, THIS IS Why I Have Chosen TO CREATE AND Leave Behind An “AFTER The Being Caught Up Together SURVIVAL GUIDE” (Along WITH A COPY OF The Holy Bible), Which Basically STRESSES The Importance OF Acknowledging GOD Almighty’s Amazing Saving GRACE AND Accepting GOD Almighty’s FREE GIFT OF Salvation, IMMEDIATELY!

My Prayer, FOR The Reader (OF The Survival Guide) IS, THAT He OR She ACCEPTS Jesus Christ, AS His OR Her Personal LORD AND Savior, Thereby RECEIVING Salvation, BECOMING Fellow Believers, AND Fellow Children OF GOD Almighty.  So That They (Believers), ALSO, WILL BE IN GOD Almighty’s Immediate Presence, WITH Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, AND All The Rest OF The Children OF GOD Almighty, For Eternity, Forever!

Revelation 3:10

Because YOU (Believers) Have KEPT My (Jesus Christ’s) COMMAND TO Persevere, I (Jesus Christ) ALSO Will KEEP YOU (Believers) FROM THE HOUR OF TRIAL (The Great Tribulation), Which Shall COME UPON The Whole World (Satan’s World), TO TEST Those (Unbelievers) Who Dwell ON The Earth.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

For The LORD (Jesus Christ), Himself, WILL DESCEND FROM Heaven, WITH A SHOUT, WITH The VOICE of an Archangel, AND WITH The TRUMPET OF GOD (GOD Almighty).  And The Dead IN Christ (Dead Believers) WILL RISE First.  THEN We (Living Believers) WHO ARE ALIVE and REMAIN, Shall BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER, WITH Them (The Dead IN Christ), IN The Clouds, TO MEET The LORD (Jesus Christ) IN The AIR.  And Thus We (Believers) Shall ALWAYS BE WITH The LORD (Jesus Christ).

The Being Caught Up Together May Occur IN The Next Millisecond, So, There IS NO Time TO Waste, GET OUT There, Show YOU Care, AND Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ.
