Email from the Edge – Pre or Post Tribulation

I thought it would be a good idea to include some email from visitors to theHumanStain.net
website. The title 'Email from the Edge' corresponds to the world as we now know it being
on 'the Edge of Eternity', meaning that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming very soon. That is
quite evident by all the middle east hoop-di-do between Israel and the Gaza Strip, Israel
and Hezbollah, Israel and Palestine. There is no doubt that Israel is right smack dab in the
middle of Bible prophecy. That's the way God likes it.
Moving on from my rantings (I absolutely get cranked up on Bible prophecy), I received an
email from 'Katie' (I won't use her real name for privacy reasons). She was concerned about
several issues. One of them was regarding final judgment, Pre and Post Tribulation.
In Matthew 25, Jesus explains to his disciples the final judgment, which by the way, is the
Great White Throne that appears in Revelation 20:11. It is very important to understand
that those standing on Jesus Christ's right side are those that have their name written in the
Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 20:1). Those on the left, the goats of Matthew 25:33, 41
will have eternal life, however, it will be what I like to call 'the wrong side of warm'. Put
another way, these 'goat people' will live out eternity in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:1).
Think about that for a moment. It is very difficult for a human being to wrap their head
around this eternity thing. What would it be like to be eternally in Hell (that's what the Lake
of Fire is)? Think of the absolute worst experience you have had in your life and how you
felt at that particular moment. This feeling will be multiplied by an astronomical figure if you
are unfortunate enough to be cast in the Lake of Fire. That's what it will be like. I'm hear to
tell ya, that is reason enough alone for me to be on the 'right side of warm' and submit my
ways and my life totally to Jesus Christ. Submitting your life
