I totally agree with Kjersti454 's translation. I know that Adam has said that this an extremely spiritual song for him. I have been trying to decode it for a while and this pretty much matched what I came up with. I know he is right. Their is a war going on. I can't see it. No one can. It is a war for souls. Satan doesn't want people to go to heaven and he is doing everything he can to deceive people and keep them out of heaven. This war has a point. God is fighting for our souls. He loves us and wants to spend eternity with us because we are His people. In the end I know that God will triumph. For now all we can do is fight for HIm. |

@oceanheart13 I see that you said you don't understand why an all forgiving god would banish people to hell. Well one thing I would like to mention is that God is just which means He will do what is right. He doesn't banish people to hell for no reason. He sends people there that have chosen to reject Him their whole lives. By sending them to hell He is giving them what they asked for and He is also honoring our freedom of choice. If God forced everyone to go to heaven then He would be treating us like we have instrumental value; like we are only good for reaching a certain purpose and that we don't deserve to be appreciated just because we are us. So by having people go to hell He is honoring their choices. Everyone deserves to go to hell because we are humans and we mess up. But because Jesus took on God's wrath on the cross, He was taking on the punishment of the sins of those who ask for forgiveness. Everybody pays for their mistakes (sins) one way or another. Some people, like those who ask for forgiveness, will pay for their sins in this life. However, those who do not choose to let Jesus pay for their sins, will pay for them later in hell. It is only by God's love that we can go to heaven. Yes God is loving and forgiving, but He is also just and moral and He will do what is right. He doesn't enjoy sending people to hell, He had to create hell because mankind rebelled against him by sinning and disobeying Him. Remember when you think of the concept of hell that God doesn't enjoy its existence and that it honors people's freedom of choice. |
