“He who sins against me wrongs his own soul;
all those who hate me love death.” Proverbs 8:36
Not believing the gospel in one’s heart is to harm one’s own soul and to love death,
because it is rejecting the Creator and Savior who made us and came to save us.
“As laughter is to a fool who does evil,
so is wisdom to a man of understanding.” Proverbs 10:23
People live without even realizing that not believing in God itself is delighting in evil.
The place prepared for them is the lake burning with fire and brimstone.
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers,
and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone:
which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8
The existence of heaven and earth is evidence that there is a Creator who made them,
and God has left testimony through all creation that the Almighty exists.
And He came into His own land as a man, died, and rose again, leaving historical testimony behind. Hallelujah!
“Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it unto them.
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things
that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.” Romans 1:19–20
“Bring forth everyone who is called by My name, whom I have created for My glory;
I have formed him, yes, I have made him.” Isaiah 43:7
