Why so many ignore God's Invitation

Here is a line from one scene in the movie: God's Not Dead.  The son is speaking to his mother, making the old argument that life without God can be better than life with God...


Mark: You prayed and believed your whole life. Never done anything wrong. And here you are. You're the nicest person I know. I am the meanest. You have dementia. My life is perfect. Explain that to me!



Mark and Mina's Mother: Sometimes the devil allows people to live a life free of trouble because he doesn't want them turning to God. Their sin is like a jail cell, except it is all nice and comfy and there doesn't seem to be any reason to leave. The door's wide open. Till one day, time runs out, and the cell door slams shut, and suddenly it's too late.


The movie does an excellent job explaining that the rewards for a life with God sometimes occur after death---eternal life of our spirit and peace in heaven. And, that rewards for a life without God sometimes come from God's enemy who God has given temporary power on Earth so that we have a free choice between good and evil. God's enemy is "Prince of this World" and he sets a "trap" for those who choose to ignore God's invitation.


I highly recommend the movie.  Anti-Christians hate the movie because it makes a powerful and effective case of why it is important to have a relationship with God and Jesus Christ.  The only response the Anti-Christians can make is to mock it.
