"THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS 2"

Then he said: I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest
send him to my father’s house:
For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest
they also come into this place of torment.
Abraham said unto him, they have Moses and the prophets;
let them hear them.
And he said, Nay, father Abraham; but if one went unto them
from the dead, they will repent.
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets,
neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
Luke 16-19.
The rich man sadly awakened among the flames when it was
to late to repent and change the direction of his life, and he
wished that his brothers could repent and avoid to fall in
such place. And Abraham told him that if they don’t listen
to Moses and the prophets, they won’t listen neither if
someone is sent from the dead.
God listened the concern of the rich man for his brothers but
did not tell Abraham to send Lazarus to tell them about Hades,
instead, God sent his beloved Son who rose among the dead
to tell all of us about this horrendous place, avoiding it by
repenting of our sins, and tell Jesus to save us, because with
his death he paid for all our sins.
We may not be rich, but after a party, we throw away lots
of food, like the rich man, instead of saving some money
to help so many hungry people that don’t have a crust
of bread to take to their mouths. Listen:
“As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous
therefore, and repent.
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: If any man hear
my voice, and open the door, I will come to him, and will
sup with him, and he with me.
Revelation 3-19.

PRAISE THE LORD!
