KNOWING ABOUT HELL AND HOW TO ESCAPE IT

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: KNOWING ABOUT HELL AND HOW TO ESCAPE IT

TEXT: Luke 16:19-31

And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. [24] 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. [25] 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. [26] 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.

We have come to a time when few people believe in a literal Hell. Yet it is still in the Bible, and it is still true because the Word of God is true. Men change their ideas but God's truth is always the same.
The great Eternal God tells us that there is an eternal Hell for all those who reject Christ and live without God. Preaching on hell has diminished.

We hear many light, fluffy sermons about peace, goodness, brotherhood, and the social gospel, but some congregations never hear hell even mentioned. Please don't miss this week of morning meal so as to be better informed about hell and reason why you must not go there
Some people brought a boy to church sometimes ago. When the boy reached home after the service,
his father asked him how he liked the sermon.
"I liked it pretty good," said the boy, "but the preacher used a bad word right there in the pulpit. He used the word 'hell' over and over again."
That boy had never heard the word used except in a bad sense. Yes, preaching about hell has cooled off, but hell is as hot as ever.
The Bible that tells us of a wonderful heaven also tells us of an awful hell. God created hell just as sure as he created heaven. One is just as real, just as necessary, just as lasting as the other.

Luke 16:27-31 KJV
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: [28] For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. [29] Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. [30] And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. [31] And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
Brethren, are you willing to know about hell so as to run from it or you always keep away from such preaching and still continue in the act that will lead you to hell? Remember TO BE FOREWARN IS TO BEFORE HARMED

. . . I will continue tomorrow. Be informed HELL IS REAL ! YOU DONT HAVE TO GO THERE

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, LORD HELP US TO ESCAPE HELL AND PUT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS UPON US IN JESUS NAME
