> The people at the 2end gate are the ones that have forgiven. They know of their failure and they know that it has caused suffering. They are the ones hat want a whole new life. They aknowledge that they have failed with their life. Those are the only people that can be at the 2end gate. If you have opened the first gate by forgiving, and you can not admit that you have failed, and the failure is in loving your neighbor, then turn around and go back. But do not discourage others from going on the road. I hold 2 world records and I am a millioniar, but I am a failure. You have failed to see what I have been talking about. I will continue to tell of what I have been a witness to, and it is real to me, and if you can't see or have no ears to hear , then go back over the great gulf( and I will explain that when someone asks) and continue your life without reading anymore of this post. Walk away. I am only seeking those that are lost.

We have all failed to love our neighbor. Today I read in my newspaper that a center to feed homeless people is closing for lack of support. I have not supported that center. I have failed to love my neighbor. I also read in the paper that there are people that have no winter clothes and I have not given any coats or gloves to them. I have failed to love my neighbor. I read of the people in prison and I have not visited them. I have failed to love my neighbor. I read of people selling their children to buy food. I have not fed them. I have failed to love my neighbor.
At that 2end gate you are asked if you have failed by not loving your neighbor. Those that admit that they are failures will proceed to the 3erd gate to The Crown of Life. There will be few, my friends. Few.
Lou
