It's after midnight and we just got home from the airport. Travel days and packed weekends are both tiring, so I will keep this short.
We had an hour and 40 minute flight from Dallas to Indy this evening and since I didn't have anything downloaded to watch on my phone and I didn't want to turn a light on to read a book, I decided to read straight through the Gospel of John.
It's an interesting experience to read through large chunks of the Bible in one sitting. I try to put aside my assumptions and notice what is really there on the page.
And also what is not there.
Most significant omission that struck me tonight? Unless I missed it, in the entire Gospel of John, Jesus says zilch about hell. He talks about "perishing" apart from Him at least twice that I noticed, but nothing about fire or worms or gnashing of teeth.
I may be wrong. If you've seen it there, please point out the verses to me.
