No Looking Back

"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 saith unto him, They have Moses
and the prophets; let them hear them."
Luke 16:27-29

Jesus told about the rich man who was in
'torment' in Hell. From that horrible place,
he realized mistakes he'd made in life.

Even though it was too late for himself, he
was concerned about others that were still
alive. He realized there were consequences
to their actions.

He begged for something to be done to
warn them. But Abraham told him that his
loved one already had been given chances.
Still the rich man pleaded, "If someone
goes to them from the dead, they will
repent!"

Abraham replied, "If they do not listen to
Moses and the Prophets, they will not be
persuaded even if someone rises from the
dead." The truth was already available.
They just needed to listen and respond.

Many Christians today know about God.
They go to church, but what do they really
believe? How many do the Word?
