There's an old joke: they say that in heaven all the cooks will be French, all the policemen will be English, all the engineers will be German, all the lovers will be Italian, and the Swiss will run the trains. In hell, it is all off by one: all the cooks will be English, all the policemen will be German, all the engineers will be French, all the lovers will be Swiss, and the Italians will run the trains.
What if this is the way of the denominations? What if in heaven all the systematics profs will be Presbyterian, all the cultural philosophy will be done by Romans, all the lawmakers will be Lutheran, personal holiness taught by the Baptists, and all the creative artists will be Anglicans. In hell, the Lutherans would write the poetry, the Presbyterians would make the laws, the cultural philosophers would be the Anabaptists, personal holiness would be led by the Anglicans, and the Romans would teach systematics. (I am sure that I have offended ALL now, but I mean this lightheartedly! Ps 133:1)
