What Do We Mean By Propitiation? Does It Only Count If We Accept It? – 2006 Grace Evangelical Society Conference – YouTube / Transcript (page 35)
Zane Hodges delivers a message at the 2006 Grace Evangelical Society Conference on propitiation as taught in 1 John 2:2. People are not condemned to the lake of fire because their sins have not been paid for, as Jesus is the propitiation for the sins of the whole world. Rather, according to Revelation 20:15, people go to the lake of fire there because they are not found written in the Book of Life. According to John we get that life by believing in Jesus, and in John 3:36 we see that people are “condemned” because they do not believe.
Luke 16:19-31 – Pleasure Has an Exit Door Marked Death (1993) – MP3 / YouTube
What is the most potent, the most addictive, the most intoxicating, and the most dangerous drug known to man? Pleasure. The purpose of the story of the rich man and Lazarus is not to explain why Lazarus and the rich man are where they are, but to show that these two men have traded places. Those who never believe in Jesus Christ for the free gift of eternal life will one day find that their days of pleasure will come to an end. The Word of God is more valuable than a whole lifetime filled with pleasure. The only really stable and solid thing in this world is the Word of God. Other passages: 2 Cor 5:8; Ephesians 2:8-9; Luke 24:13, 25-27.
