No rush
A man had a vision in which he looked like he was standing in the midst of an assembly of evil spirits. On the throne sat the ruler of them. Satan, with the scepter of wickedness in his hand calling his subjects. Satan cried out: "Who will go to earth to ensure that men lose their souls.?"
One of the spirits summoned said - I'll
"And, how you will succeed? - Asked the king inflexible.
"I convince that there is no heaven. - Responded.
But Satan said, - No, that will not work. You could never impose that belief in the majority of humanity. This conviction of a better life to come is too rooted in the hearts of men.
Then another spirit said: - I will go.
"And, how you will succeed? - Asked Satan.
"I convince that there is no hell.

But Satan said, - No, that will not work. You could never impose that belief in the majority of humanity. This conviction of a better life to come is too rooted in the hearts of men.
Then another spirit said: - I will go.
"And, how you will succeed? - Asked Satan.
"I convince that there is no hell.
But again Satan answered: - It will not work. You will never convince most people that this is the truth. The consciousness of man will testify against you and defeat you. We must resort to something else, something that catches the attention of all social classes, people of all ages and of every character, something that is well received by the entire human race. In it a baleful spirit stepped forward and said: - Satan, I will go.
"And do you tell them? - Asked Satan.
"I'll tell - said the spirit - there's no hurry, no rush to be saved, they can do it tomorrow!
This was the spirit that was chosen to come to the earth, and he keeps muttering the hearts of men: There is time for religion. . . later. No rush. Have fun while you can. "Eat, drink, rejoice!"
But that's not true! Every moment that passes brings more souls to Eternity, many of them suddenly, without any notice. And then ... the Last Judgement.
The Bible says: "How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation" (Hebrews 2:3). We know the answer. No escape! Therefore, "if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts ..."(Hebrews 3:15).

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned. "John 3:16
