And that question is even more fraught than any of the others. The stakes couldn't be any higher, because not it's not just a question of life and death, but also a question of life after death or eternal torture after death.” IfsWorldDoeStoriesBigsCausesLandEffectsCreationHigherEternalChainsTortureLife And DeathSouthernStakesBangsAfter DeathCause And EffectBaptistsCosmologyRough TimesLife After DeathSouthern BaptistCreation Of The World Author:Kyle Minor
