Is Hell Real (Part 2)

The topic of hell is dead serious and must be settled for everyone because the knowledge of hell has eternal consequences.

Regardless of political party or religion affiliation, no one escapes dying. Whether someone believes in a real hell or not, we are all still going to die. The thing that we DON’T know, is WHEN we are going to die.

If God is such a good God, why would He create Hell? First we must acknowledge the inseparable link between God’s justice and God’s love. Hell exists because God is just and holy, not because He is a harsh God. For those who have decided to reject His love and grace, Hell is their last resting place.

Ezekiel 33:11 (NASB) says, “Say to them, ‘As I live!’ declares the Lord God, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then will you die, O house of Israel?’”

What most people have never done is to study what the Bible says about hell. And what people determine as their source of truth will determine their belief, or disbelief, about hell. Learn what scripture says about how many will live in hell for eternity and why. And learn the answer to, “Isn’t hell only for bad people?”

There is no second chance to get into Heaven if someone dies before accepting Christ as their Lord and Savior. In John 8:24 (NASB) Jesus says, “I said therefore to you, that you shall die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins.” Jesus is plainly saying that the fatal sin, the one sin that cannot be forgiven, the eternal sin, is to deny Him as the Messiah and the Son of God. All OTHER sins CAN BE FORGIVEN, but NOT THE SIN of denying Christ.

• If you or someone you know is not a Christian, the way to accept Christ is to pray and invite Him into your heart now if you feel a stirring in your heart because it may be God who is sending an invitation. If you don’t know what to say, you can say something simple like, “Jesus, please come into my heart. I want accept you as my Lord and Savior beginning right now. Please forgive me for my sins.”
• Do not be deceived: No one can save themselves, and no magic phrases to repeat given by a pastor or being called up to a stage, dunked in a water tank and getting baptized…NONE of that will save anybody. Only God can save someone. Ephesians 2:8-9 (NASB) says, “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast.”
