Many people, either don’t know or don’t understand about Paradise.  Under the Old Testament Law, a person had to die in total righteousness.  A person could live a perfect life for years, every sin forgiven.  If that person died with all sins forgiven, his soul would go to a department in Hell called Abraham’s Bosom. 

Jesus tells us in His Word, (Matthew 16:24), to take up our cross and follow Him.  We are to forget about our problems, give them to Jesus and follow Him.  He also tells us to speak to the mountain. (Matthew 17:20) 

The Bible teaches us in Ephesians 4:30, You are sealed until the day of redemption.

In Philippians 1:6, He which begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

In II Timothy 1:12, I am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.

In studying God’s Word, we find that every individual was born for a purpose.  Moses was spared as he floated down the river in a basket, why?  God had a plan for Moses’ life.

When we dig a hole and climb in it or when we get our backs to the wall, we can always count on our Lord to show up and bail us out.  Many times we take our shovel into the hole with us and we try to escape by digging more.

We can see exactly what Paul was telling Timothy.  Today, there are millions that do not want to hear the truth, they only want to hear the words that comfort their flesh.
