On one side you have a stone and on the other a mountain...

Exodus 20

4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my commandments.

peace, don

Alright Shy It seemed so obvious to me...

Stone = A little bit of sin gets a few generations of punishment...

Mountain = A little bit of faith gets thousands of generations of love.

So whatever our view of how God hates sin, a little bit of moon_river_j's faith righteouness ( faith in Jesus ) is an open door to an eternity of God's love.

Does this speak to an eternity of punishment?

peace, don

On one side you have an 8 ounce glass of water and on the other an ocean.

On one side you have a snowflake and on the other an avalanche.

On one side you have a cloud and on the other the universe.
