Listen "Eternal Separation from God"
Episode Synopsis
This Sunday's parable of Lazarus, the poor man, and Dives, the rich man, is a lesson in charity towards the poor but also a lesson in the end-of-life result of living separated from God, namely Hell. It's not popular to talk about Hell since the prevailing notion is that Hell does not exist, or that it is empty, or that as long as I am nice, I won't go there. But that is not what Our Lord teaches us in this parable and at many other times.The drawing, "The Rich Man and Lazarus" is from Harvard Art Museums and is by John Everett Millais.
