Good Morning John,
I went to bed last night thinking about the chapters we read in Matthew, I woke up early thinks about chapter 22:13,14: “Then the king said to his ministers, ‘Bind his feet and hands, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness.’ In that place, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth! 14. Many are called, but few are chosen.”
In the early 90’s, the Lord gave me a dream about this place. In my dream, I was walking in the most beautiful place I have ever seen. Everything was clean, fresh, and clear. The colors were so vibrant and pure that there was no end to them; they were almost transparent. The whites were the purest whites I have ever seen. There was transparent gold on the streets I was walking on, just as clean and pure as the whites I seen.
The buildings where pure white, one right after another along the streets of gold I was walking down. As I got to the end of the street I was walking on, I came to a gate that led outside of that beautiful city, still walking on the pure gold road. It was still as wonderful outside the city as it was inside the city.
As I walked along the road, I glanced to my left and I noticed a big, golden dome in the beautiful green grass alongside the road. As I looked at the dome, almost instantly a fear and terror flooded my whole body like I have never felt before. It was a crippling, overpowering fear that consumed every fiber of my body, and I had no choice or say in when it came or when it could leave. As I was in this state, the Spirit spoke to me and said, “You don’t want to come to this place…. Nobody wants to be in this place.”
I could feel everyone in that place tearing and scratching and clawing to find some relief that would never come. It was awful!! “Weeping and gnashing of teeth!” This is a real place, just as real as we are alive on this planet, and many a soul will end up here forever and ever!!!
May God keep each and every one of us from this God-forsaken place! He has given us what we need to make it and live with him forever. Let’s take the high road. It is so much easier.
