IS HELL A REAL PLACE?
Is hell a real place?
So many people had ask this question for ages. While some
see it as a fable, some don’t believe that God can have such a place reserved
for punishment. They say God is love, God is Holy but they forgot that he is a
God of vengeance. They forget what God does to ancient Israel whenever they
backslide. And how he would gather them back to himself if they repent or in
remembrance of the covenant he had with Jacob.
Some claim Hell if it indeed exist was meant for
Satan and his fallen angels.
They claim
that God never had hell in mind for man by misquoting [Jer 32:35] And they built the high places of Baal, which are
in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to
pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither
came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to
sin.
Passing through the fire of Molech
is a form of worship that God forbid Israel to do [Deu 12:31]
You must not worship the LORD your God
the way they do! For everything that is abhorrent to him, everything he hates,
they have done when worshiping their gods. They even burn up their sons and daughters
before their gods!.
Though he ordered some men of old
to make sacrifices, when it comes to God, obedient is better than sacrifice.
As
long as you are still living on planet earth, God has no business taking you to
hell, his desire is that none should not perish in sin while on earth [2pet
3:9]
Hell, Hades and Shelo are often you interchangeably in the
bible so it will be hard for me to really describe hell. But there are many
indication in the bible that tells us about a place called the LAKE OF FIRE
which every believer knows as hell. Jesus himself talked more about such a place “And shall cast them into a furnace of fire:
there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth” [Matt 13:39-43].
Jesus came down from heaven so when he said this, he
knows what he was saying. He did not rely on vision or revelation nor the
spirit of prophecy to tell us this things. So if you believe in Jesus then you
should believe there is a place called the LAKE OF FIRE.
The reality of the LAKE OF FIRE was reveal to John in revelation [Rev 21:8]
the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and
murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall
have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the
second death.
Remember
Jesus also said, that the fire will burn forever and ever [Mark 9:48] Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
So
now I ask you, do you still believe there is a place call hell?
