Hell - Fact Or Fiction?

[Bro. Allen]

Is Hell just a "make believe" place as false teachers , cultists and the unbelievers who reject Jesus Christ claim?
Or is Hell a real place that the Bible says is eternal , a place of many torments that was originally created for Satan and his host of fallen angels?

The Bible describes Hell as a place of utter darkness and place with unquenchable fire!
You say you can't imagine a place where it's dark yet full of fire...that's right!
You can't even imagine a place such as Hell ; not even in your mind s eye!
The Bible says Hell is a real place that sinners who have rejected Jesus Christ will spend their eternity being totally separated from God yet experiencing God's wrath forever!
It's a place where your memory will be enhanced and every transgression against God that you've commited in your earthly life will replay in your mind over and over .... while you're in constant torments these memories will haunt your miserable soul forever and ever!
A place where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth and the Bible says their worm will dieth not!
A place where the torments and humilation will be beyond human comprehension ; where you'll scream out in agony for God to help you!
You'll pray over and over that the death angel will pass over you to place you in an eternal sleep so that you might escape the burning and thirst that your broken body is enduring!
There will be no escape!!!

Lets see what the Bible says as far as Hell being eternal.....

Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake , some to everlasting life , and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

Matthew 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.


What does the Bible say about about suffering the wrath of God?

Revelation 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:

What does the Bible say about the fire?

Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels , and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend , and them which do iniquity;
Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

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:

What else does the Bible say?

Matthew 24:51 And shall cut him asunder , and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Luke 16:24 And he cried and said , Father Abraham , have mercy on me , and send Lazarus , that he may dip the tip of his finger in water , and cool my tongue ; for I am tormented in this flame.

False teachers for years have discounted the reality of Hell on the grounds that the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus is only a parable used by Jesus to make a point!
Jesus was definitely making a point but to discard this is as a parable would be uncharacteristic compared to the parables Christ used to teach.
Jesus never used proper names in parables but Jesus told us a real story of a man that has been in Hell every since he left this world and is still in Hell to this very day!
Read Luke 16 and then read some of the parables quoted by Jesus and it's easy to see this isn't a parable.
Jesus is giving the lost a glimpse of what awaits the unbeliever!
Even if this story was a parable that wouldn't erase every other reference to Hell mentioned in Scripture nor discredit the times that Jesus preached on Hell!

According to the Bible , who will make Hell their eternal home?

Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire

When people think of Hell , they think of people with tattoos of 666 enbedded on their foreheads and people who spent countless hours worshiping Satan making chalk outlines of pentagrams and dancing around with headless chickens in a candle lit room!

Fact of the matter is anyone who has rejected and died without accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour will make Hell their eternal home!
Hell will be full of good people as well as bad people , people as the kind mailman who smiled and said good day as he handed you the mail each day , the grocery clerk who was so nice and chatted with you while in check out lane , there will be powerful men , world leaders , highly intelligent people , people you work with daily , people who never harmed a fly that did many good works , church goers who were never saved , people from all walks of life who never accepted Jesus into their heart as Saviour!


I'll end this post by saying if your lost ; you're only a heart beat away from experiencing just how real Hell is for yourself!
You can avoid this by receiving the pardon that Jesus has offered by laying down His life on the cross and dying so our sins will be forgiven!
It's easy and it's free so if you're reading this and you don't know if you will avoid this wicked place ; just contact one of the management personal on this board and any one of us will be glad to show you through Scripture that you are promised a know so salvation !
If you feel the Holy Spirit is urging you to do so....... please don't delay!
God bless!
