Three scientists—Papaia, Banani, Ravioli—and their assistant Igor, after a series of mishaps, finally arrive at the renowned Dark Matter Conference, but Ravioli, disobeying a plumber at work, uses an out-of-service restroom, causing a flooding in the conference center and canceling the event.
On the return flight, the scientists are discussing theology.
Banani: Hey, Ravioli, finish explaining the mission of Jesus to us! We had gotten to the final judgment and the book of life.
Ravioli: Right. Basically, on the last day, all the people who have ever lived will be resurrected. Those not found written in the book of life will end up in the lake of fire, where they will suffer eternal punishment.
Papaia: So, the key question is: how does someone’s name end up in this book of life?
Ravioli: And that’s where Jesus comes in.
Banani: Oh, really? How? Does he decide?
Papaia: And on what basis? Based on our actions?
Ravioli: If it depended on our actions, no one would be saved. We’ve already said that all have sinned, that no one can see God in His glory and remain alive, and that we are separated from Him.
Banani: Well… maybe God could simply forgive us.
Ravioli: But that would be unjust, wouldn’t it? God is just and must apply His justice in the judgment.
Banani: Maybe He could just give us a certain number of years in hell to pay for our punishment.
Ravioli: That’s not possible, because the Bible talks about the end of time. After the judgment, time ends. There will be no more “years” in the future, just an eternal and unchanging dimension.
Papaia: So it’s a definitive crossroads: either heaven or hell. And forever.
Banani: So, if the judgment is based on the moral law and we’re all guilty… is our fate the same for everyone?
Ravioli: Exactly. The verdict would inevitably be hell, with no way out.
Igor: According to the moral law, everyone deserves punishment… like a stay at the Sunflowerr Hotel or, for the worst cases, a trip organized by Papaia!
