It’s not an easy thing, to be a good person. To do things for Christ, etc. So many people want to create their version of what God wants and accepts to fit their lives, so they can continue sinning, convinced they’re not harming anyone, when they’re in fact harming themselves.

It’s not that God doesn’t want to be with us when we die when we are sinners. It’s that once we die, and we feel his Glorious love and magnificence, we also experience every sin we’ve ever committed, and we feel not worthy to be with him. We choose it, not Him. Those who have terrible sins, feel so much shame and feel ugly in comparison can’t bear to be with him, so they cast themselves to hell. Those who were good but didn’t quite live the life God commanded us, still feel shame and cast themselves into purgatory. And the lucky few of us who strived every day to be with Him and constantly repented and asked for forgiveness and luckily died in a state of grace will be instantly whisked into heaven and will be with him.
