The Choice: The Importance of Making the Right Choice
Lewis emphasizes the significance of making the choice between surrendering to God's pursuit or turning aside from it. He believes that this choice is presented to individuals every moment of every day, and it determines whether they become heavenly or hellish creatures. The choice is both self-inflicted and divinely inflicted, as individuals choose to wallow in sin and turn away from God, while also being cast into hell by God as a form of punishment.
