It’s a quibble that reaches the level of pedantic. Rightly affirming the import of the question, it nevertheless gets it backwards. You have heard it said, “The most important question you will ever face is, ‘What are you going to do with Jesus?’” It is certainly an important question. It may even be the most important one you will face. But it is not the most important question that will face you. As important as this question is, more important still is this one, “What is Jesus going to do with you?”
My point, as pedantic as it may be, is not to dredge up once again old arguments about predestination and free will. Rather it is to remember that no one goes to hell for rejecting Jesus. Instead they go to hell for their sins. It is true that all those who reject Jesus finally go to hell. It is true that none who embrace Him go to hell. Those, however, who have never heard of Jesus? They too will spend eternity in hell. Such is God’s ordained punishment for sin. All sin. Any sin. They will not be punished because of what they “did with Jesus” because they didn’t do anything with Jesus. They didn’t reject Him; they never heard of Him.
The quibble exists to remind us that while knowing Jesus is our only hope, ignorance about Jesus is not our principle problem, sin is. The quibble exists to remind us of what our due is. It exists to remind us that Jesus didn’t have to come. He didn’t have to die for us. We were already guilty, under the judgment of God.
The quibble exists also to remind us that it is Jesus who does the judging. He is seated at the right hand of the Father. What He does with those who reject Him, and what He does with those who never heard of Him is judge them, justly. What He does with those who embrace Him, through no merit of their own, but through His electing grace, is welcome them to His reward. The difference, because we are all sinners and all stand guilty in ourselves, is in what He does with us. It reminds us that in our fallen state we know there is a God, that we stand guilty before Him. And we suppress that truth in unrighteousness. Sadly, even having been born again, adopted, indwelt, we find it easy to continue in that same sin, to minimize our sinfulness, to suppress the reality of our own inherent guilt. As we push down the truth of our sinfulness, the Word pushes it back up. It is a mirror, showing us what we are.
What is Jesus going to do with me? Forgive me. For He, the judge of all the earth, already took my just punishment. Embrace me, for He came to earth to rescue and redeem me. Welcome me into His kingdom, inviting me to reign with Him, sitting with Him in the heavenly places. What am I going to do with Jesus? Praise Him, thank Him, worship Him, from here to eternity.
