Oh wait, that isn't hell. Hell isn't supposed to be like a classroom environment. I thank God I'm still in a classroom far from hell, a dreadful place. To even say it is dreadful is an understatement. Show me a person that tries to tell me there isn't a place called hell, and I'll show you a person who doesn't believe in Jesus. He has said, plainly, that hell exists in this parable. Pay extra 999% attention, not just your typical 100%, on the words that are in this parable:
There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 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. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
- Luke 16:19-31
Now, what do you see? Fire. As if this isn't bad enough, it is a place of torment. What, you have the atomic bombs, eh? Sarin nerve gas? Heavy water? Ultra-concentrated arsenic to pour straight into your mouth and injected into your bloodstream at ultra-high temperatures? Hell has much worse things than these. However, this kind of place isn't for us! Jesus says:
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
Hey, who doesn't hate the devil? As we all know, many people blame the devil for all the bad things, sinful and adulterous deeds that would have us condemned forever in hell, but why live like the devil? We lie, and cheat, and do everything sinful in the eyes of God. But thank you Jesus, You died on the cross for us so that we could be saved from this eternal torment in Hell, through Your blood! Precious soul-saving blood!
Because of Adam eating the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge in the Garden of Eden, he sinned against God, and through him, we being his descendents have to also bear this original sin, AS WELL AS THAT OF OUR FOREFATHERS. Well, doesn't this explain very well that every new generation these days is worse than the generation before it?
So I urge you guys now, I pray thee, believe in Jesus and confess to him your sins, and be saved from hellfire. Hell is real - don't joke around with it. People have been revived in the ICUs and screaming and shouting about the horrors of hell. People have heard near volcanoes that spew out fire and brimstone(sulphur) what seems like lost souls in hell crying out in eternal torment. Trust me, please. Don't end up there.
It takes a lot of love to tell people about how terrible Hell is, and to get them out by getting people like you to put your life in Jesus, who is the only one who can pull you out from the dangers of hellfire.
