WILL YOU GO TO HELL?






Firstly, we thank God Almighty that the numbers of those affected with the Corona virus has gone down. We are now in our second phase of lockdown because of this deadly viral disease. Our hearts and prayers go out to those who have been affected and for those who have lost their love ones.
Death could happen anytime and sometimes we don’t want to talk about it, but let us face the fact 10 out of 10 people die. Sadly, not everyone will go to heaven, many will go to hell.

Will you go to hell?

Some people reject the reality of hell. If there is no hell, there’s no ultimate justice. Those people who were stabbed, shot etc and the criminal went away free. If God isn’t going to punish the criminals for doing the crimes, then He would be an unjust God, but that’s not who He is. God will be so thorough, He will consider hatred to be murder at the heart and will judge all humanity right down to our words, thoughts and intents of our hearts.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Ecclesiastes 12:14

Even some professing Christians changed the truth about hell or some doesn’t believe the existence of hell. In doing so they are ignoring God’s warning.

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Revelation 22:19

Hell is mentioned many times in the Bible, it is called Gehenna, Hades, bottomless pit, everlasting fire and punishment. Jesus spoke of heaven and hell as real places. The parable that He told about Rich man and Lazarus was an actual event that demonstrated the reality of heaven and hell. Please read

Luke 16: 19-31

The Bible says that hell was prepared for the devil and his angels.

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:
Matthew 25:41

Because every human being is a sinner, every person past the age of accountability has already been condemned to hell. We all deserve to go to hell as a punishment for sinning against God.
The rejection of Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour will send the people to hell.

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.
John 3:18

Jesus was clear that no one can see the Kingdom of God unless they are born again.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3

The Bible tells us that all should come to repentance for God desires every person to spend eternity with Him. We must humble ourselves, acknowledge that we have sinned against God, repent, believe and trust in Jesus Christ alone.

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.
2 Peter 3:9

We can choose to trust in Jesus payment for our sins or we can choose to pay for our sins ourselves – but we must remember that the payment for our sin is eternity in hell.
Will you go to hell?

Blessings in Christ,
