Hell Is Real, Filled With Literal Flames, And It's A Place You Don't Ever Want To Go

Somebody asked me one time why we bothered to preach on the streets and hand out gospel tracts, and my answer was succinct and simple. I said "because Hell is real". And it really is as simple as that, it's not complicated, Hell is real and people who reject Jesus Christ go there. Don't you be one of them.

"The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath." Proverbs 15:24 (KJB)

Hell is a topic not much preached on these days, not in the mega-churches, and hardly even mentioned in most Baptist churches. Billy Graham preached that Hell was only separation from God, and not eternal flames. He said "I think that hell essentially is separation from God forever. And that is the worst hell that I can think of. But I think people have a hard time believing God is going to allow people to burn in literal fire forever. I think the fire that is mentioned in the Bible is a burning thirst for God that can never be quenched." Wow, that's bad preaching. Hell is not a pleasant thing to preach on, but a necessary task to perform if we are to bring the whole counsel of God.
