NOTE:
If you have the misfortune of being despised by Jesus Christ, for your inequities... ...to such an extent, that He has been advised by God the Father... to send you to hell 'without hesitation (on Judgment Day)'... then you should be concerned, about the wrath... of both God the Father, and God the Son (who act as a singular entity, in the context of the Holy Trinity)

The Lord in the 'primary sense,' is 'God the Father'... Jesus Christ, is 'God the Son'...

One wonders about when people reach their primes in life, typically in the context of physicality... but spiritual and mental fortification, can likely deter ailments and deterioration... over time.

Humans have a tendency to experience benign physiological changes, up to a certain point... over time's passage.

NINE BIBLE VERSES (regarding getting to heaven, via 'natural means'):
1. "Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven… but only he, who does the will of my Father'…" - Matthew 7:21 (according to Jesus Christ, regarding 'God the Father')
2. “But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary… they will walk, and not be faint…” - Isaiah 40:31
3. “But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years… are like a day…” - 2 Peter 3:8
4. “Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death… so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in Him. According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord… will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command… with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God… and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left… will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord, forever…" - 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17
5. “About that day or hour, no one knows... not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son... but only, the Father..." - Matthew 24:36
6. “It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than it is for a rich man… to enter, the Kingdom of Heaven…” – Matthew 19:24
7. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they… shall see God…” – Matthew 5:8
8. “For it is not the Father who judges a man, but he has given all judgment… to the Son…” - John 5:22
9. “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life... No one comes to the Father, except through me...” – John 14:6 (according to Jesus Christ)
"In the context of #7 & #9, there is credence to believe that God the Father ('heavenly Father') could advise God the Son ('Jesus Christ') not to 'see' certain people... on Judgment Day... given that their deeds are so corrupt, they are immediately condemned... and do not warrant 'judgment'..." - Michael Izuchukwu (11:14 PM, on 4/15/23)
NOTE #1:
#7 suggests that the pure-hearted, will see God... by some means... and the presumption is that such is on Judgment Day, given that real-life encounters... are limited, by many variables... Given this, if someone is 'deficient' at being pure-hearted... he/she ought to take the measures, for purification... to optimize his/her odds, of getting to heaven... in the context, of the above '9' verses...
NOTE #2:
God don't like ugly...
