Did reading that word make you uncomfortable?
Say it out loud.
Hell.
Did that make you feel bad?
Why?
Why do we think of that word as a bad word?
Hell is a real place.
Why is it so hard to talk about.
Is there something wrong with the fact that Heaven and Hell are real?
It’s like they are “hush hush” words.
Like saying the name of Jesus or saying Amen without reverence.
ooohhhhhh
THAT’S why.
These words are to be revered.
Yet people say them everyday.
In vain. Saying “Jesus Christ” when something goes wrong, or saying “what the hell?” When it’s very clearly a question of confusion or statement of being surprised.
We have cheapened words like these so much that taking them in the CORRECT context is like whispering behind someone’s back.
“Oh my gosh, we shouldn’t be saying someone will go to hell. We shouldn’t tell people that it’s a forever torment.” - “we don’t believe people will be tortured forever.”
Well what do you think will happen to people who don’t believe in the existence of Jesus and God?
They will go to Hell.
‘Nuff said.
Stop being so hush hush about the important stuff. If we don’t speak it, nobody will hear it.
Do you want that for your loved ones? Or the man on the street corner who is holding a sign because his family is in need? It doesn’t matter who it is.. Every single person is worth the salvation that Jesus gives.
