And those from the north and the south are out of luck then? Did you not even read this?
Luke 13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. 29 And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
LOL! This might be the most ridiculous discussion I've ever been involved in on here. You are making one's ability to travel long distances a requirement for being in the kingdom of heaven. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Total insane nonsense.
Have you taken all scripture into account when interpreting that verse? Was Jesus not serious when He said this:
John 4:19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Jesus said "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.".
You say: "Who cares what Jesus said? They that worship God must travel to Jerusalem to worship Him.".
