What is it going to be like in eternity with God?
Frankly, the capacity of our brains cannot handle
the wonder and greatness of heaven. It would be
like trying to describe the Internet to an ant.
It's futile. Words have not been invented that
could possibly convey the experience of eternity.
The Bible says, "No mere man has ever seen, heard
or even imagined what wonderful things God has
ready for those who love the Lord." 1 Corinthians 2:9 TLB -Rick Warren (1954- ) _The Purpose Driven Life_ [2002], Chapter 4
You’ll become a martyr if you stand for God, and if they can’t kill you, they will kill your reputation - Ian Paisley
I am not prepared to enter a Battle of Wits with someone with no defences." - Sir Edward Carson KC
There is also in the minds of the unregenerate men a moral inability by which the mind will never receive spiritual things, because it is governed and ruled by various lusts, corruptions, and prejudices. They are so fixed in the unregenerate mind as to make it think spiritual things are foolishness (John 6:44; 5:40; 3:19)." - John Owen
But if the mind is ignorant of the gospel, or is blinded by prejudice, then the heart will not be roused to desire Christ, nor will the will be urged to embrace Him. If the mind is deceived, both will and heart will be deceived also. Where the mind is depraved, so will the heart be. We see, therefore, how important are the words of Jesus, “You must be born again.– John Owen
