There was a huge field, with a big, stone fence going right through the middle of it. And there were lots of people on the left side, and a few people on the right side. One man observed that satan came and started collecting folks from the left side, and then he saw God come and start pulling people from the right side.
Well, being a cautious man, he found a way to climb to the very top of the fence, so he could observe what would happen next. Eventually all the people were collected from both sides of the fence, and everybody left, and the man was alone.
Hmmm, he thought.
Then he noticed satan come back to the left side, and it looked like he had dropped something – he kept looking and looking. Finally the man asked satan what he was looking for.
And satan said, “Oh! There you are! Come with me.”
But the man said, “No, I did not make a decision one way or the other, and especially not for you. I'm safe up here on the fence.”
But satan replied, “Silly man. You are coming with me. I OWN the fence!”
It turns out that we CANNOT be neutral when it come to following the WORLD, or following CHRIST. We do NOT know what day satan or God will come calling for us. And we are required to make that decision BEFORE we are ushered into our eternal home. Let's examine Bible verses that corroborate this, and then carefully weigh where we want to spend our ETERNAL future.
