back to the dust of the earth

II-A TORMENT THAT IS UNIMAGINABLE
-****Ted Turner;”Christianity is a religion of losers”.Referring
to Christ’s death on the cross,Turner said,”I don’t want any-
body to die for me.I’ve had a few drinks and a few girlfriends,
and if that’s gonna put me in hell,then so be it.”**************
A-It is an Indescribable State
1-some bible descriptions;lake of fire,a devouring fire,a
bottomless pit,a furnace of fire,a place of torments,a place of
filthiness,a place where they have no rest,a place of everlasting
punishment,a place of eternal darkness and blackness,a place
where they gnaw their tongues,a place where people are cast alive,
a place where the smoke of their torment ascendeth up
forever and forever,--------(Rev. 21:8)---------------
2-******someone has written:
Hell ! The prison house of despair,here are some things that
Won’t be there;no flowers will bloom on the banks of hell,
No beauties of nature we love so well:no comforts of home,
Music and song,no friendship of joy will be found in the
Throng;no children to brighten the long,weary night;no
Love or peace,no ray of light;no blood-washed soul with
Face beaming bright,no loving smile in that region of night;
No mercy,no pity,pardon nor grace,no water,O God,what a
Terrible place!The pangs of the lost no human can tell,
Not one moment’s ease,there is no rest in hell!!!Hell! the
Prison house of despair,here are some things that we know
Will be there:fire and brimstone are there,we know,for God in His
Word hath told us so;memory,remorse,suffering and pain,
Weeping and wailing,but all in vain;blasphemers,swearers,
Haters of God,Christ rejecters while here on earth trod;
Murders,gamblers,drunkards and liars,will all have their
Place in the lake of fire;the filthy,the vile,the cruel and mean,
What a horrible mob in hell will be seen!yes,more than
Humans on earth can tell,are torments and woes of eternal hell.
C-It is an Irrevocable State(no exits in hell)*************
1-hell is a real place
2-hell will be filled with real people
3-hell contains real punishment
4-hell guarantees real permanence
