I know, there
are those who say that the Lake of Fire is only symbolism. Oh, and of
course there are those who say that there is no such thing as Hell.
Sorry, but the Bible is specific about Hell. It is a real Lake of Fire,
that burns forever and ever. Those who end up there are tormented
forever, with no peace, no rest, no breaks, and no water. FOREVER
Luke 16:23-25, In hell, where he was
in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his
side. So he called to him, 'Father Abraham, have pity on me and send
Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue,
because I am in agony in this fire.'
"But Abraham replied, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received
your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is
comforted here and you are in agony.
Revelation 14:11, And the smoke of their torment rises for ever
and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast
and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name."
Wow! FOREVER! That's a long time. We can't really even comprehend the
word FOREVER because our natural lives are so temporary. Our souls;
however, are not temporary; and we will spend eternity in one of two
places.
Hey! What's that? Sure is ugly, huh? Never mind, let's get out of
here.. |
