"So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just."
Matthew 13:49
We walk around in our own personal limbo sometimes... trying to be in-between. Not fully committing to obedience, but attempting to not completely leave it behind either. Perhaps we are afraid of losing control to either God or Satan... but we don't get anywhere that way. And, eventually, as we learn in this scripture... there is going to be a reckoning, and we're going to end up on one side or the other. Severance sounds like something that I would like to avoid. :) The thing is, in order to be among the just we have to actually commit. We have to make a decision, and not hold on to all our souvenirs of Hell. When we fully commit to Heaven, we have to leave some things behind.
