THE TRUTH ABOUT HELL
APRIL Tuesday 6th
TEXT: LUKE 16: 19-31
Key Verse: “And I say unto you my
friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more
that they can do. But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which
after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear
him.” Luke 12: 4-5
Various people have various beliefs
about hell. Some say God is too good and too merciful to put a man in hell. There
are some people and some religions that teach that when a man dies he goes to the
grave and remains there. While some other religions also believe that hell is a
temporary place of torment where God puts disobedient children and after a time
brings them out, but will not leave them there eternally. But the question is
does hell exist? What does the bible say about hell? The fact that many
people have diverse beliefs about the reality of hell will not change the truth
of God about hell. The devil is the one bringing about these diverse beliefs to
cause men to be comfortable in sin and not fear the eternal damnation of their
souls in hellfire and amend their ways before it is too late.
The truth is that hell exists
because the bible confirms its existence as we have seen in our text and the key
verse above. The story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-26 reveals
that hell is real. Several scriptures show that hell is underneath the earth.
Hellfire keeps all those who die as sinners, backsliders and all those who
rejected Jesus Christ, who practice other religions, who believe in other
prophets or another messiah apart from Jesus Christ. Hell accommodates them now,
they go to hell now, sinners and hypocrites in churches who die without
repentance go to hell now. They shall be tormented in hellfire until the day
they shall be brought out and judge by the great judge the Lord Jesus Himself.
He shall judge them according to their works, after the Judgment they shall be
condemned into the lake of fire, the second death. Hellfire itself shall be
cast into the lake of fire, Satan and his demons shall be cast into the lake of
fire and they shall be tormented forever and ever.
Thought for the day: Amend your ways
now before it is too late.
Song for the day: Eternal, eternal
life (x2) I want to live eternal life.....
