120 What good is the hope of eternity, when we find ourselves in such a completely hopeless situation?

121 What good is it that safe and secure homes have been prepared for us in the future world, when we have lived such wicked lives?

122 What good is the promise that the glorious presence of God Most High will protect those who have lived pure lives, when our own lives have been so full of sin?

123 What good is it that Paradise is shown to us, that its imperishable fruit can heal us and provide all we need? We can never go there
