| Posted 7/29/2001 3:01 AM (GMT -6) |   | Chambes hypothetical question about falling away reminded me of a question of my own that I once asked. I though about taking it to my response to him but I didn’t want to highjack his thread and I wanted to up my posts #’s to make it to that alphabet land. My old hypothetical question about falling away went something like this:
Imagine a girl who is a godly saint of a woman, totally sold out, radiant with Christ. She has her whole life planed out. She wants to be a missionary and work among the poor when she grows up. But in high school a bit of bad luck happens. She gets hit in the head by a stray baseball that sends her into a coma. When she wakes up she can’t remember anything. (This actually happened to one of my dad’s childhood friends.) She has to relearn everything, how to eat, how to dress herself, how to speak and read. Eventually she gets up to speed and can go back to school a few years behind her classmates. The trouble is that she is not the same person she was before. She is cruel and hateful. She despises Christ and the Church. She grows up to be a bitter angry old lady who doesn’t like anyone. So does she go to heaven or hell when she dies? Since Be-ing is a verb imagine the pre-coma girl and post-coma girl in front of the judgement seat. If God sends them to hell what is he going to say to the pre-coma girl who loved him? If he sends them to heaven how does he deal with the post-coma girl who is solidified in evil? Can he send one to heaven and the other to hell? Then what is the relationship of Be-ing to the spirit?
happy speculating
