I grew up in a row home in Philly. Every year we had snow the kids in the neighborhood hood would build a small igloo at the curb. At night we would pour some water in it to freeze it more. This was back in the 50’s & 60’s. Still remember how much fun we had just sitting inside.

all unrighteousness is sin and all of us have sinned against the Holy God, and so we all deserve eternal damnation in hell. we could not get right with God by our act of "Good works," nothing by own our righteousness we could do to could save us. which is why there is the "Good news/ Gospel" The debt we couldn't pay, CHRIST payed for us on the cross. we broke the law/ GOD'S commandments, and CHRIST JESUS payed the fine. Only through CHRIST we can be saved, whosoever believes and is baptized with the Spirit shall be saved. and this good news is for everyone, no matter what religion, no matter what sin, Jesus came to save us from them so we could be brought back into relationship with God, and be saved..amen ..
