“The New Testament also offers no support to the notion that everyone who dies somehow immediately attains eternal bliss. Our Lord’s parable of Lazarus and the rich man in Luke 16 rather suggests that one’s state after death corresponds to the choices one made during this life. Nothing in the Bible offers assurance that everyone finds bliss upon closing one’s eyes in death regardless of whether or not they lived a life of obedient faith. The hope that “all dogs go to heaven” comes from Disney and their friends, not from the Bible.”
