??IS
THERE REALLY AS HELL??
Have
you ever wondered if there is truly a place called Hell? Have you ever
wondered "Will I go there?" IF you don’t KNOW you are going
to Heaven, then chances are, you will go to Hell.
Hell is clearly described in God's Word
- Everlasting
punishment. Matthew
25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting
punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. [KJV]
- Everlasting
fire. Matthew 25:41 Then shall he
say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting
fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: [KJV]
- Everlasting
burnings. Isaiah
33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised
the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among
us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? [KJV]
- A
furnace of fire. Matthew
13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace
of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. [KJV] Matthew 13:50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and
gnashing of teeth.
[KJV]
- A
lake of fire. Rev.
20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was
cast into the lake of fire. [KJV
- Fire
and brimstone. Rev.
14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which
is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall
be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels,
and in the presence of the Lamb: [KJV]
- Unquenchable
fire. Matthew
3:12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor,
and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with
unquenchable fire. [KJV]
- Devouring
fire. Isaiah
33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised
the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among
us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? [KJV]
- Outer
Darkness. Matthew
22:13 Then said the king to the servants,
Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness;
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. [KJV] Matthew
25:30 And
cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping
and gnashing of teeth.
[KJV]
- Prepared
for the devil. Matthew
25:41 Then shall he say also unto them
on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared
for the devil and his angels: [KJV]
- Devils
are confined in Hell, until the judgment day. 2
Peter 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast
them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved
unto judgment; [KJV] Jude 1:6 And the angels which kept not
their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting
chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. [KJV]
- Punishment
of, is eternal. Rev. 20:10 And the devil that deceived them
was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false
prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
[KJV] (Also Isaiah 33:14).
- The
wicked shall be turned into. Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations
that forget God. [KJV]
- Human
power cannot preserve from. Ezekiel 32:27 And they shall not
lie with the mighty that are fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone
down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords
under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though
they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. [KJV]
- The
body suffers in. Matthew 5:29 And
if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it
is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that
thy whole body should be cast into hell. [KJV]
- The
soul suffers in. Matthew
10:28 And fear not them which kill the body,
but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to
destroy both soul and body in hell. [KJV]
- The
wise avoid. Proverbs 15:24 The way of life is above to the
wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. [KJV]
- Try
to keep others from Hell. Proverbs 23:14
Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. [KJV] Physical discipline may well save someone from Hell. Jude 1:23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even
the garment spotted by the flesh. [KJV] Others
may be rescued by snatching them from the flames of judgment, while others
you may need to show mercy, being very careful that you aren't contaminated
by their sins.
- The
lifestyle of the wicked leads to. Proverbs
5:5
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. [KJV] Her/his
wicked lifestyle leads to death; her/his steps lead straight to Hell. Proverbs
9:18
But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the
depths of hell. [KJV] People don't realize how many are now in temporary
Hades awaiting judgment that shall send them to eternal Hell.
- The
beast, false prophet, and the devil shall be cast into Hell. Rev. 19:20 And
the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles
before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the
beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into
a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [KJV] Rev. 20:10 And
the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone,
where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and
night for ever and ever. [KJV]
- Illustrated. Isaiah 30:33 For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath
made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath
of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it. [KJV]
Have
you REALLY read the above Scriptures? This is God speaking to you through
His Holy and unerring Word. Does it not say that there is indeed a Hell? God
CLEARLY describes it for us. He does NOT want ANYONE to go there, that is
why He describes it in such graphic details.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness;
but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that
all should come to repentance. [KJV] The Lord isn't really being slow
about His promise to return, as many people think. He is being patient, for
He does not want anyone to perish, so He is giving more time for everyone
to repent. Some people say that Hell cannot be both an everlasting fire and darkness. Fire makes light, and darkness is opposite of light,
so, how can Hell be both?
Fire is a symbol of judgment
in the Bible (Mat.3:10; Luke 16:24; 2 Thes.1:8).
Fire is the best symbol
that could be used for the reality that Hell is. Hell is a place, and it is
also a condition. It is a place of conscious (being aware of) torment, a torment
that you cannot escape according to the above Scriptures: everlasting,
eternal.
Fire is a weak symbol
of the reality of what it means to be lost, to be separated from God forever.
A symbol is simply a poor representative of the real thing. The reality
of Hell far exceeds the descriptions above.
2 Thes. 1:8-9 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey
not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting
destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
[KJV] To me, these verses symbolize Hell. To be separated from the goodness
of God for eternity, that would be Hell!
Things
to Consider
- IF
Heaven is a real, literal place, then maybe Hell too ia an actual, literal
place.
- IF
Hell is real, is it really worth the chance that you might spend eternity
there?
- IF
you could KNOW for certain that you could go to Heaven, would you want to
know how?
HOW
CAN YOU GET TO HEAVEN??
First
of all, you must know that Heaven is NOT a reward for good behavior, and Hell
is NOT a punishment for misbehavior. You could NEVER stock up enough "good
points" in your entire lifetime to get you access to Heaven. God clearly
tells us our "righteousnesses are as filthy rags" (Isaiah
64:6). So, considering this gruesome fact, how do we get in the Door of Heaven?
Well, my
friend, there is only ONE Door (Gate) into Heaven and that is Christ Jesus,
the Son of Almighty God. Without Him, only Hell awaits.
John
14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am
the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. [KJV]
John
10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in
and out, and find pasture. [KJV]
The Bible clearly tells
us Jesus died on the cross for our sins. Yes, "but how many of my sins"
you might ask. ALL of them! The Bible also clearly tells us that we ALL are
sinners, and that we ALL will receive death (eternal death, or Hell) without
Jesus.
Romans
6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. [KJV] There
are some who teach that when we die, we are dead forever. Don’t
you believe that "damnable heresy" (2
Peter 2:1). It is a LIE! Our soul is ETERNAL! It will live in
one of two places for eternity! Believe this (Eccles.12:7).
Too, there are those who teach that everyone will eventually live
in Heaven. This too is a blasphemous or heretical LIE!
Jesus clearly tells us there will be only a "few"
(Mat.7:13-14) who make it Heaven. He also warns us in the very
next verse to BEWARE! Matthew 7:15 Beware
of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but
inwardly they are ravening wolves. [KJV] Our Lord taught SO much on Hell. WHY?? Because He does NOT
want anyone to go there. He warns time and time again of the agony
of Hell, yet some people teach "a loving God would
NOT send anyone to Hell." My friend, this too is
yet another LIE. When God sends someone to Hell,
it is not because He likes it, or wants to. But, IF He didn’t
do as He states in His Word, He would be a "liar"
and He is NOT a liar (Titus 1:2). He
clearly tells us who WILL and who WILL NOT be in Heaven.
Rev.
21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and
murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which
is the second death. [KJV] ALL cowards who turn away from God, all unbelievers,
all who insist on living a corrupt life, murderers (1 John 3:15), the immoral,
those who practice any form of witchcraft, idol worshipers, and all liars
are doomed to the lake of fire. This is the second death. ALL people will one day be resurrected; believers will be
resurrected to eternal life with God while unbelievers will be resurrected
to be punished with a second death, which is eternal separation from
God.
Rev.
21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any
thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or
maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of
life. [KJV] NOTHING evil
will be allowed to enter Heaven (the New Jerusalem), NO
ONE who practices shameful idolatry and is dishonest;
only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. Below are some Scriptures on how you can have your name
placed in the Book of Life.
John
1:12-13 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become
the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born,
not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of
God. [KJV] Only those who believe
God and accept His only begotten Son, Jesus, can ever become children of God.
1 John
5:10-12 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself:
he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the
record that God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath
given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the
Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [KJV]
Only those who believe in the Son of God shall ever access Heaven! Those who
refuse to believe and reject Jesus are actually calling God a liar because
they don't believe what God has testified about His Son. This Passage goes
on to tell us exactly WHAT God has testified: He has given us eternal life,
and this life is only in His Son. Whosoever believes
God, has God's Son and has life (eternal life); and whosoever does not believe
God does NOT have His Son and does not have eternal life. God makes this absolutely
clear!
Rev.
22:14-15 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that
they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through
the gates into the city. [15] For without are dogs, and sorcerers,
and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever
loveth and maketh a lie. [KJV] Believing
God is foremost in His eyes! Unbelief is
a terrible thing!
Blessed
are those who are washed clean by the Blood of Jesus; for they
can enter through the gates of the city and eat the fruit from
the tree of life. No access is given to dogs, the sorcerers, the
sexually immoral, the murderers, the idol worshipers, and all
who love to live a lie. Those who are shut out of the Kingdom
of Heaven are symbolized as "dogs." Paul calls
false apostles "dogs" (Phil. 3:2). Persecutors
are also called "dogs" (Psalm 22:16).
Below
are some Scripture Verses telling us THAT unbelieving
sinners will NOT go to Heaven.
Galatians
5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these;
Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, [20] Idolatry, witchcraft,
hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, [21] Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before,
as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall
not inherit the kingdom of God. [KJV]
Ephes.
5:5 For
this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who
is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
[KJV]
Rev.
21:27And
there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever
worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's
book of life. [KJV]
John
3:18 He that believeth on him
is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already,
because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten
Son of God. [KJV]
John
3:36 He
that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not
the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. [KJV]
All who believe in God’s Son have eternal life. Those who refuse to believe
and obey the Son will never see eternal life, but the wrath of God remains
upon them.
1
John 5:10-12 He
that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth
not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that
God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us
eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath
life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [KJV]
Below
are some Scripture Verses speaking of atonement, justification
and being right with God.
Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from
wrath through him. [KJV]
1 Cor. 1:30 But of him
are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness,
and sanctification, and redemption: (KJV)
Ephes. 1:7 In
whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according
to the riches of his grace; [KJV]
Col. 1:14 In
whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of
sins: [KJV]
Col. 1:20 And,
having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all
things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things
in heaven. [KJV]
Hebrews
1:3 Who being the brightness
of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things
by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down
on the right hand of the Majesty on high; [KJV]
Hebrews
9:12Neither by the blood
of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy
place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. [KJV]
1 Peter
1:18-19 Forasmuch as ye
know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold,
from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; [19]
But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without
spot: [KJV]
1 John
1:7But if we walk in
the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and
the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. [KJV]
Rev.
1:5 And from Jesus Christ,
who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince
of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our
sins in his own blood, [KJV]
Ephes.
2:8-9 For by grace are
ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
[9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. [KJV]
ATONEMENT is the removal of God’s punishment for sin through the perfect sacrifice of
Jesus Christ.
Romans 3:25 Whom
God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare
his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance
of God; [KJV]
God sent Jesus to the world to
take the punishment for our sins and to satisfy His anger against us. We are
MADE RIGHT with God when we believe that Jesus shed His Blood, sacrificing
His life for us. God Himself is righteous and He makes us righteous when we
believe in Jesus. Nothing to do except BELIEVE!
John 6:28-29 Then
said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
[29] Jesus answered and said unto them, This
is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. (KJV)
There is only ONE work we can do to get to Heaven . . . believe
on him (Jesus) whom he (God) hath sent. Salvation (eternal
life in Heaven) is easy, so easy a child or retarded person can attain it.
Just believe God!
WHY
JESUS CAN BRIDGE THE GAP
God knows
our problem and knows that we could do nothing about it. Because God loves
us, He sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to Earth to bridge the gap that separates
us from Him.
Although
Jesus is God, He chose to leave the comfort of Heaven and the privileges
of His deity to live on Earth as a man. Christ "made himself nothing;
he took the humble position of a slave and appeared in human form. And in
human form he obediently humbled himself even further by dying a criminal’s
death on a cross" (Phil. 2:7-8).
Jesus
did NOT stop being God when He came to Earth. He simply laid aside His divine
privileges and walked the Earth as a Man. In this way He was personally
able to experience all of our human emotions, ranging from happiness to
deep sorrow. He knew what it was like to be tired, sad, cold, and hungry.
The Bible
teaches, "Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness
of sins" (Hebrews 9:22). Leviticus 17:11 For the life
of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar
to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an
atonement for the soul. [KJV]
The sacrificial
rituals in the Old Testament looked forward to what Jesus would do when
He came to this Earth. He took the sin of the world upon Himself when He
hung on the cross so many years ago.
Jesus
knew before He came that He had come specifically to die for the sins of
humanity. He also knew that this sacrifice would be made on a Roman cross.
The necessity
of the death of Jesus Christ on the cross shows just how bad our situation
was as fallen people. You can tell how deep a well is by how much rope you
lower. Consider just how much rope God lowered from Heaven. Who is guilty
of sending Jesus to the cross? We are just as guilty as the Roman soldiers
who put Him on the cross, and the Jewish leaders for manipulating the situation
to get Him there. Jesus did not die for us while we were His friends, but
while we were His enemies, for we opposed Him by our sins. But in spite
of all of this, Jesus demonstrated His love for us by dying on the cross.
"[Christ] loved me and gave himself for me" (Galatians
2:20).
When we
reject this awesome love, when we refuse to believe God, we are His enemies
(Romans 5:10). If you are tempted to doubt God’s love for you, take a long
look at the cross on which Jesus died. Then realize that, for all practical
purposes, it was not nails that held him to the cross, but love. When anyone
refuses God’s love and Jesus’ Sacrifice, only Hell awaits.
Why is
there only one Mediator who is qualified to bridge the gap between God and
people? Surely there has to be other ways besides Jesus! According
to the Bible, which I teach, there is NO OTHER WAY to Heaven except JESUS!
John
14:6 Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. [KJV]
Acts
4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. [KJV]
1 John
5:10-12 He
that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth
not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God
gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us
eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath
life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [KJV]
Another
important Bible Truth is that Christ Jesus rose from the dead! You
must believe Jesus died on the cross for your sins in order to receive eternal
life and be a true Christian, but you must also believe He rose again from
the dead. 1 Cor. 15:4-7 And that he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures: [5] And that he was seen
of Cephas, then of the twelve: [6] After that, he was seen of above five
hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present,
but some are fallen asleep. [7] After that, he was seen of James; then of
all the apostles. (KJV)
HELL IS REAL! VERY, VERY REAL!!
DON'T
LET ANY ONE LEAD YOU ASTRAY!!!
Hebrews
10:29 Of
how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath
trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant,
wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the
Spirit of grace? [KJV] Think how much more terrible the punishment will
be for those who have trampled on the Son of God and have treated His Holy
Blood as if it were common and unholy. These people have insulted and enraged
the Holy Spirit who brings God’s mercy to His people, and God cannot and will
not allow their admittance into Heaven. Only Hell awaits these people.
One
of the horrors of Hell is the never ending memory of a misspent life.
Luke 16:25 But
Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good
things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou
art tormented. [KJV]
Another
one of the horrors is the torture of eternal separation from God.
2 Thes. 1:8-9 In
flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not
the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting
destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
[KJV]
James Hayes managed an evangelistic booth at a fair.
He gave an electronic test to the curious who visited the booth. The test
was made up of five questions on the New Testament. If all were answered correctly,
sky-blue lights came on spelling "Heaven. "But, if there was one
wrong answer, fiery, red lights flashed the word "HELL,"
ending the test. Only 20 out of 220 persons passed the test. I pray that this
won’t be the percentage in reality, for it would mean most people are going
to Hell.
God has chosen to give
me evangelistic poetry over the years. I do not claim to be a poet. I do not
accept any credit for the poems. I simply write down the words He so graciously
gives me and then I share them with people everywhere, most of which are prison
inmates.
There are times when
God gives me these poems, it causes me great distress. I remember asking Him
once, several years ago, to show me a little of what Hell was like. At that
time, I didn’t feel as if I had enough compassion on the lost souls around
me. The poems that came after that prayer about done me in. I was wishing
I had never asked such a thing! He truly showed me through those poems "a
little of what Hell was like." Now I do have compassion on lost souls,
because I know what lies ahead if they do not repent. I have dedicated my
life to the Lord as His humble servant, and I do all I can to bring the Truth
of the Bible to people.
I
don’t care what you have done in the past. I don’t care what you felt in your
heart. ALL your sins can be forgiven if you simply repent (turn away from)
your sins, and turn to God and believe Him!
1 John 1:8-9 If we say
that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9]
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (KJV)
God
can and will pardon our sins IF we are truly sincere when we confess our sins.
He exonerates us from any condemnation (judgment, Hell) because of the work
of Christ. All sins can be forgiven freely (Acts 5:31; 13:38). All you need
to do is be sincerely repentant and ask God to forgive you, then Hell will
not be your eternal abode.
