The Reality

This is not just a story; it is an analogy. The Bible clearly states:

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory [standard] of God (Romans 3:23).

The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23a).

These verdicts from the Supreme Court of Heaven imply that everyone is guilty of sin and that all must be sentenced to Hell, separated from God forever. Everyone without exception is under God’s judgment-on a death train to an eternal doom.
