Whatever happened to Heaven and Hell?
Just because heaven and hell aren’t preached from behind the pulpits anymore, doesn’t mean that they
don’t exist. Preachers can stray away from those subjects and preach that God is love and no matter what kind
of repulsive life you’ve lived, when you die an un-repented death, you will automatically go to be with the “Big
guy in the sky”. What kind of disrespect is being shown to God in today’s churches? God is not a “Big
guy in the sky”, God is God, and our creator, and if we don’t abide by his “Word” we will
suffer everlasting punishment. Remember what Christ said in (John 15:6) If a man abide not in
me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are
burned. That doesn’t sound like blissful heaven to me. The Bible has been warning people day in and day
out about the reality of heaven and hell, yet people just go on and simply refuse to acknowledge that they’re
real. This issue was so important, that God the Father sent His Only Begotten Son to die a very cruel death.
Now I don’t know about you, but for Jesus to leave the Glory of Heaven and have to come into this sinful world,
makes this issue a very real and important one.
We can sit here and pretend that God won’t punish us for being disobedient, but when judgment day comes, it’ll
be a whole new ball game. Because that’s when reality will hit you and you will finally realize that you’ve
been duped by lies and deceptions. Here’s the warning, if you make a change in your life today, it will count
in judgment. But if you remain set on your worldly beliefs that “God is Love, and he won’t send anyone
to Hell”, well guess who’ll be waiting for you with a smile. I’ll give you a hint with this passage
in the Bible; (John 8:44) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will
do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh
a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. That’s right, the devil, Wow, imagine
that God does mention the devil, as a “Liar”, and those who preach that God will not punish are also “Liars”.
And guess where all liars go? (Rev. 12:8) But 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. That’s what happens
to those who teach lies, and those who follow lies, but ultimately the choice is yours. So where will you be in the
end,
Heaven or Hell?
