As Ethan heads West, let's say his bus crashes and leads to his own death. When he wakes up on the other side of eternity where will he be? Heaven or Hell? Where would you find yourself? Why?
Heaven: 1) I've lived a good life. 2) I placed my trust in Jesus and let Him pay my bill.
Hell: 1) I've never made Jesus lord of my life but I want to be saved from Hell. 2) I've never made Jesus lord of my life and I don't care to.
