 You are a hell crushing prince or princess in the Kingdom of God meant to reap souls and not to just sow seeds.

 You've been lied to. Christianity is more than praying a prayer once, going to church on Sundays and waiting to die to go to heaven. Jesus said He has abundant life for His followers on this earth.
