Such will be their sense of justice!

   ~ ~ ~ ~



(Jonathan Edwards, "Discourses on Various Important Subjects" 1738)

Can the believing husband in Heaven be happy with his unbelieving wife in Hell?

Can the believing father in Heaven be happy with his unbelieving children in Hell?

Can the loving wife in Heaven be happy with her unbelieving husband in Hell?

I tell you, yes. Such will be their sense of justice, that it will increase rather than diminish their bliss!

"After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, for true and just are His judgments. Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever." Revelation 19

(Editor's note: Every thinking Christian asks the above difficult questions. When perfected in Heaven, we will lose all of our "human sentimentality" and will see things clearly from God's holy and righteous perspective.)
