So... why would you offer me something that I shouldn't want?
You shouldn't desire to be great or greater than others in Heaven, but you should always desire good things, etc...
Then tell me the truth -- is "the next life" going to have any other temptations that I shouldn't want?
Lot's maybe, depends on your own heart when you get there, etc...
But they will not last very long once everything is determined or decided there, etc...
Apparently, even in heaven, there will be status (and its lack) and inequality -- the "haves," and the "have-nots." As above, so below, etc...
Those who do get to be in the higher places will not see it that way, and neither will the ones in the lower places either once they are made to fully realize why they are there, or what put them there, etc...
Ah, so even in heaven itself, one can be damned...
One can lose out on a higher place, etc...
You're making the next life sound less and less appealing, you know that, right? Just more of the same.
Sorry you see it that way, etc...
Then why would I seek out anything you're offering? What does anyone gain by listening to your temptations?
You are being "tempted"...?
Huh, that's weird...?
I wonder where that comes from, etc...?
Because I'm not telling you to seek anything out if you don't want to, but you can decide for yourself, etc...
I'm just telling you "the truth", that's all, etc...
You do what you will or whatever you want with it, etc, OK...
Because I'm not trying to force you to choose anything in particular, but am just presenting the truth only, etc, OK...
God Bless!
