That is some scary artwork. It looks like the face of a giant termite. I'm all for living, but I'll read your acrostic poem. Interesting perspective. Good work.

Blimey, Bic - this isn't much to look forward to for the 'morally corrupted'. I wonder if they're TOO 'corrupted' to care for now.

Very strong and well-penned warning.

Best wishes, Ray

    Well, the truth of the matter is Earl whilst in life there is always hope until that final breath, once death takes hold there is no repentance or salvation offered.

    The angel of death carries the soul to stand before Christ in a sort of private judgement then it is sent to its place of eternal holding, Heaven or Hell as the case may be. The soul remains in this place until the day of judgement when it will be called forth and re united with a body fit for the place of eternal dwelling, Heaven or Hell.

    Once the soul and body are reunited in the day of judgement their will be a public announcement of sins done for each individual and they will be damned for all eternity. For the believer they will be publically aquitted and enter into eternal rest and glory for ever.

    It is sin that causes depravity of soul and as such forgiveness needs to be applied this can only be applied by grace through faith in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, as he alone has kept the perfection of the Ten Commandments that the soul will be judge against.

Bravo Bic, you really hit on this one. An Acrostic to make the rest of them pale. Your choice of appropriate words here is amazing.
