If God is going to punish sins, He would be very busy punishing everyone in heaven after raising each of us from the dead. You stole your sister's money?  Piak! This slap is for you.  You backstabbed your colleague, and lied about him?  Piak!  You mocked Christians?  Piak Piak!

And if he is going to forgive sins, He would be just as busy going through the Book, and say "You prayed for forgiveness?  Got do penance bo?  Didn't do?" Piak!  Sin not forgiven!

You stole the church's money?  Got return the money bo?  Yes, you did? And did your penance?  OK.  Angel Ali did record this down.  OK, you are forgiven, dude!

Eew...that's not huat the Bible says man.

So what did it say?  It says, if your name is not found in the Book of Life, you go to.....

Christ has died for our Sin.  The Muslims here are unable to grasp that.  They are "micro-managing" still living by the Law, and worrying themselves sick, unsure if they would make it to heaven, and hoping that Allah would let them in, they pray five times a day, fast, and still have zero assurance that they would enter. They live in fear and great uncertainty.

I wrote a long post a few days ago.  Don't wish to repeat over and over.
