Snares are also ultimate snares. If we can see the power of evil in these temporary snares by being ensnared we can see that there is a possibility that we could be exposed to the ultimate snare of eternal death and judgement and punishment. The reality is that we are unsure of our level of exposure in ourselves.
Our inner thought life on this earth is filled with threatening and fears in thinking about our final breath and seeing that day approaching. We naturally have a distaste to pondering these things. Yet there is a eternal reality that we live in as we approach that day of judgement.
When we only think in terms of Gods love without considering His anger we come to a warped view of these eternal things. God  loves and hates at the same time. If we thought that we could appease His hatred in ourselves we would be most miserable. So we are caught in a tension that fuels our heavenly desires and longings.
On one level we have experienced desires and longings after heaven an Christ. On the other level we are pierced with these thoughts that God is a great judge and He enacts His judgement on the wicked. Yet we struggle with sin, sometimes we have periods where we give into sin more than other times.
Now if we thought that we could keep God from enacting judgement on us when we sin then there would be no need for Christ work on our behalf. We naturally have a tendency to be thinking in this way as it is part of our fallen natures. We try to bargain with sin and with God. We become double minded and that in turn dampens our desires for eternal realities.
Yet by acknowledging our sin and turning to Christ and for grace we begin to delight in the nature of these eternal realities and promises. We must experience a security outside of ourselves from these judgements by seeing that God has a rite to judge us but He instead judged His Son for our sin. This is the mental process we glory in. This is what helps us understand that we will not be taken with the wicked in judgement.
The truth is that just like birds who are subject to pestilence, snares, and arrows. These evils decimate entire bird populations. They are a picture of men who are die every second. There is the eternal reality. Men are susceptible to the eternal snare.
Yet if we think about the reason we are going to be protected from this eternal snare we would understand the greatness of that protection and the value of the One who took our sin on Himself. We can have an assurance in this eternal reality that indwells us and has a great effect on our desires for our future heavenly experience.
 We can picture ourselves watching men being accompanied to everlasting destruction and thanking Christ for His grace to protect us from being judged along with them. We can have an assurance that we will be there one day in heaven in total safety and that will effect our desires as that eternal life has started the moment we believe. Do we think about these things. Do we have that vision of watching in eternity. Do we ponder that grace as just like the cross of Christ we will be facing a cross roads in eternity and we will be protect by a work done by someone else on our behalf?
