The Reality of Hell

 (ID: gs1344)

Each new day brings every unbeliever we know one step closer to hell. This truth isn’t comfortable, nor is it always appreciated when preached from the pulpit, guest speaker Rico Tice acknowledges—but we neglect it at others’ eternal peril. Modeling an approach to teaching on the reality of judgment, Tice walks us through four key questions about hell, providing biblical answers with a balance of compassion and clear-eyed urgency. Jesus Himself often preached about hell. Will we follow His example?

Temptations to Sin

42k“Whoever causes one of lthese little ones who believe in me to sin,7 mit would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. 43nAnd if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to ohell,8 to pthe unquenchable fire.9 45qAnd if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into ohell. 47rAnd if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into shell, 48‘where ttheir worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’ 49For everyone will be salted with fire.10
