Oh, HELL

Father God, Almighty Creator, we come before you with thanksgiving in our hearts, lifting up this prayer through Christ Jesus asking your blessing on this monologue that is bound to touch some nerves. The GOSPEL must be shared. We prayerfully invoke the Holy Spirit as we progress, your will, not ours, Amen.

HELL Defined, Fausett:

A perpetual fire was kept to consume this putrefying matter; hence it became the image of that awful place where all that are unfit for the holy city are cast out a prey to the ever gnawing "worm" of conscience from within and the "unquenchable fire" of torments from without. Mar_9:42-50, "their worm dieth not." implies that not only the worm but they also on whom it preys die not.

HELL Defined, International Standard Bible Encyclopedia:

The English word, from a Teutonic root meaning “to hide” or “cover,” had originally the significance of the world of the dead generally, and in this sense is used by Chaucer, Spenser, etc., and in the Creed (“He descended into hell”). SHEOL; HADES; GEHENNA):, “to cast down to hell” is used (the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American) to represent the Greek tartaróō, (“to send into Tartarus”). Here it stands for the place of punishment of the fallen angels: “spared not angels when they sinned, but cast them down to hell, and committed them to pits (or chains) of darkness” (compare Jud_1:6; but also Mat_25:41). Similar ideas are found in certain of the Jewish apocalyptic books (Book of Enoch, Book of Jubilees, Apocrypha Baruch, with apparent reference to Gen_6:1-4;...

Hell is real. Hell is eternal. Hell is promised to all unrepentant sinners who fail to acknowledge Christ as Lord. By the way. We ALL are SINNERS!

(Rev 20:12-15) And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.

And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds.

Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

So, how do you get your name written into the Book of Life? Lets look at what the Apostle Paul wrote in Romans Chapter 10:

(Rom 10:8-10) But what does it say? "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART"--that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

[PARAPHRASE]

When God created the earth, He created Adam, a perfect man, the FIRST man ever. Adam disobeyed God directly and allowed himself to become INFECTED with sin and death. This infection was then passed, through HIS seed to all future men and women on this earth, even to this very day. When you were born, you were born a sinner through the INFECTION passed by Adam's original seed. The INFECTION of sin and death will progress in your body unless you decide to accept the medication that will cure you.

That medication is Christ Jesus, the only other perfect man to ever exist. Adam was the first, Jesus was the last. Jesus shed His blood and gave His life to release you from the terminal sentence of SIN and death eternal. (HELL). God gave us the cure for the original sin. The medication is a full and continuing dose of Jesus the Christ. God has been offering you this medication every day of your life to this very moment. He offers it to you because He LOVES YOU. [PARAPHRASE]

(Joh 14:6) Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.

(Act 16:30-31) ….he said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."

Through Christ, the cure is had. The SIN and DEATH is defeated. Hell no longer looms in your future. BELIEF and FAITH for the rest of your earthly life is what is needed to activate the GRACE of this wondrous cure.

Accepting the Lord's salvation will bring many changes to your life. Sin will no longer be attractive. You will thirst and hunger for the Word of God.  The Holy Spirit will enter and take up residence in your body becoming your constant guide and counselor.  You will be at peace with yourself and a member of God's Royal Family, Amen.

If you have never given yourself to Jesus, now is as good a time as any.  There is no past sin so great that the Lord will not forgive you through accepting Him as your Lord and Savior.  Lets pray together. When we are finished, and you have truly asked Christ to save you, to come into your body, find a good Bible based church or assembly, a home Bible study group, and be baptized and discipled, introduced to a whole new beginning as a Child of God.

Pray with me; Oh Lord, my God, Oh Jesus, I want to be cured, to be healed of SIN and of ETERNAL DEATH. I believe that You are Lord, the very Son of Almighty God. I Believe that you died for all of us on the cross, was buried and on the third day was raised from the dead by the mighty hand of Your Father God, to live again forever. I believe that You ascended into heaven and sit this moment on the right hand side of Your Father's throne, waiting to return. I give myself fully to you this very moment. Please come into me, save me , cure me, fill me with the Holy Spirit, be my savior now and for evermore. With all my heart I pray, Amen and AMEN.
