and a lamp unto my path. Psalms 119:105 |
| ?? |
| Absolutely NOT. You send yourself there if you refuse the alternative. Is there a hell? YES! People say one should not preach or teach fire and brimstone. God taught it. It is in His own word.
Am I trying to frighten you? NO. I am trying to warn you! | |
| First, I would like to tell you that God is pure love. He loves you beyond measure. He wants each and every one of us to live with Him throughout eternity. He made us for Himself to have fellowship with and to be a Father to us.
God's word is a light. It shows us the way in which we should go. It tells us that God loved us so much that He gave His only son to die on Calvary in our place for our sins. All We have to do is to realize that we are the guilty ones and to repent of our sins and accept that free gift of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us . It is not God's Will that anyone go to hell.
1st John-Chapter 5: Verse 12: He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. Verse 13: These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
John Chapter 15
The Bible is FULL of verses that tell us how much God loves us. However, He gives us free choice. He is a gentleman and He never goes where He is not wanted. You see, he calls to you and beckons to you to come to Him and He says that He will give you rest. If you are resting, you are not afraid. He has the power to help you overcome the fear of the present and the future and He has the power to help you to overcome the past. Psalms 130:4 (The New Living Translation)
130:4 But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you. Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
I will tell you this. If I could frighten you into salvation and into accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then I would do it. Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Psalms 55:15 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them. Psalms 139:8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. Isaiah 5:14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. Ezekial 31:16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. Ezekial 31:17 They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen. Amos 9:2 Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down: 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. Matthew 5:30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, 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. Matthew 18:9 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. Mark 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Mark 9:45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Mark 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: Luke 12:5 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. 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; 2:5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; (eighth--that is, Noah, and seven others. Contrasted with the densely peopled "world of the ungodly." preacher--not only "righteous" himself (compare 2 Peter 2:8), but also "a preacher of righteousness": alleged by Peter against the licentiousness of the false teachers (2 Peter 2:2) who have no prospect before them but destruction, even as it overtook the ungodly world in Noah's days.)
Revelations 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
