Today, Tomorrow, Forever


     One of the truths the Bible teaches and that the world avoids at all costs is that there is a hell. Jesus spoke about it over and over again. Experiencing eternity separate from God is unfathomable and horrifying. The fact of hell should give us greater urgency to tell others about Jesus and His love. We don’t want anyone to miss out on heaven.

     Pray for others and for their salvation. Jesus died for everyone. The story of redemption is Jesus Christ and Him alone. We can’t water it down or change the truth. Jesus is the way and the truth and the life. (John 14:6)

Without Jesus:

The Son of Man will send out His angels and they will weed out of His kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 13:41-42

But we have a choice:

Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12

Lord,

We want to avoid the subject of an eternal hell, but You speak of it clearly. We pray for all of those we love and for all of our acquaintances and our neighbors who don’t know You. Open their hearts to the Gospel of grace.

Amen
