D
God calls all of us to Salvation by the Convicting Power of the Holy Spirit. That call is a free gift. If we accept it, we gain everlasting eternal Life. But if we stubbornly refuse that call, we will be judged and condemned to an everlasting separation from God.
We cannot work our way to heaven, but we do have to make the decision to let Salvation enter into our Hearts and Lives. If we choose Jesus, Eternal
Life is our reward. Not to choose Salvation condemns our Souls to eternal separation from God , and that is Hell. No matter who you are God will Judge everyone the same.
5 But you are so stubborn! You refuse to change. So you are making your own punishment greater and greater. You will be punished on the day when God will show his anger. On that day everyone will see how right God is to judge people.
6 He will reward or punish everyone for what they have done.
7 Some people live for God’s glory, for honor, and for life that cannot be destroyed. They live for those things by always continuing to do good. God will give eternal life to them.
8 But others are selfish and refuse to follow truth. They follow evil. God will show his anger and punish them.
9 He will give trouble and suffering to everyone who does evil—to the Jews first and also to those who are not Jews. 10 But he will give glory, honor, and peace to everyone who does good—to the Jews first and also to those who are not Jews.
11 God judges everyone the same. It doesn’t matter who they are.
