SERIOUSLY HELL IS LIKE..............FOR REAL!

^{.............}and his soul went to the place of the dead. There, in torment, he saw Abraham in the far distance with Lazarus at his side. ²⁴ “The rich man shouted, ‘Father Abraham, have some pity! Send Lazarus over here to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. I am in anguish in these flames.’  ²⁵ “But Abraham said to him, ‘Son, remember that during your lifetime you had everything you wanted, and Lazarus had nothing. So now he is here being comforted, and you are in anguish. ²⁶ And besides, there is a great chasm separating us. No one can cross over to you from here, and no one can cross over to us from there.  Luke 16:23-26

Hollywood has served the agenda of Satan well.   We are so desensitized to the horrors of hell that we spend hard to come by and earned dollars to promote them making more media to feed our ignorant curiosity with the demonic world.   We go to great lengths to decorate our yards & homes for the Hollow season and often I wonder why?  Why are we fascinated with Satan, his demons, his world when the world we live in should be enough.  Are we not sick of seeing the news saturated with stories of murder and gruesome discoveries?  Many of us grew up hearing FIRE and BRIMSTONE preaching to which some of us, myself included, accepted Christ because if HELL is REAL, SERIOUSLY that is not a place I want to go.   So what about the place....is it what they depict it being.  Is it a big sadistic wanton party?   Is it a reunion of sinful friends?  Is Satan running around in a red jump suit with a pitch fork poking folks and laughing.........I should say not, and the Bible doesn't speak to this imagery.

What it does speak to is that it is PRISON.  Jesus tells the rich man, he cannot crossover from there nor can anyone crossover from heaven into there.  The verse informs us that the rich man is in ANGUISH....he is being tormented, eternally frustrated.....this doesn't sound like a party folks.  The bottom line is this FOLKS, if Jesus whole reason for coming was to save us from an eternity that in reality we deserved based on our thoughts, our words, and actions...then why wouldn't you, why wouldn't we take this offer?

It is said in death we will be made perfect, knowing all things......this must be true because the rich man never pleads his case for being there, he knew that the everyday decisions he made landed him there.  What about you?  Have you taken the bait of accepting Christ.....because without Him you are destined to live in an eternity reflective of the life you spent here without Him, without His love, His peace, His provision, His comfort?  I haven't been to Hell, nor do I plan to visit the place referred to as an abyss, a Lake of fire burning with sulphur, the place of the dead.....but what I do know is I've made a wise choice to spend this time Loving God, and Loving People...and prayerfully I'll love them out of the jaws of Hell, into the arms of Jesus Christ.  LGLP
