"If you tell others that you belong to me, the Son of Man will tell God's angels that you are my followers." In Gospel Parallels 209, Dr. Gian studies Luke 12:8-9 and asks one question: smart or dumb? What do you want for your eternity, heaven, or hell and the lake of fire? Everything we do has a repercussion. God loves you and wants you with Him, so why would you reject His love? Life is filled with problems for everybody; the question is whether you face them with the Lord. A godly life is not boring: the purpose of life is to get to know the Lord God. If you are smart, you choose Jesus. With a little humor at the end. Share this with someone who needs to make the smart choice.

If you say openly that you belong to Jesus, He will testify for you in front of God's angels. "I will protect you. I will testify in your behalf in front of the angels of God." But if you reject Him, you will be rejected in front of them. Is it smart to choose Jesus? Yes. It is the smartest decision you can make. "If you are smart, you choose Jesus." "But if you choose Jesus and you open your heart, things are going to be much better for you, my friend." What is the difference between hell and the lake of fire? Hell comes first; the lake of fire is the final punishment. "Initially, according with the Scripture, when the person dies, it's going to go to hell if this person doesn't receive the forgiveness through Jesus Christ by the grace of God." "Eventually, it's going to be a lake of fire where all the evildoers and unbelievers will go and suffer." If God loves me, why do I have problems? Because life is filled with problems for everybody, believers too. "Everybody has problems. Life is filled with obstacles and difficulties." "But it's either we face those problems with the Lord or not." Is a godly life boring? No. Some people think sin is fun and a life by the rules is boring, but "the purpose of life is to get to know the Lord God." "Having the Holy Spirit with you gives you such energy, enthusiasm, optimism."
