have you read the bible?
Hi Larry,
Have you ever read what Jesus said in the Bible. He mentioned Hell alot and Hades and Gahenna and all were references to the torment that a person would enter if they chose to not choose Him. He came to the earth to point us to the way of life. Not by works but by faith in his work on the cross.
I do not see on this site much talk about what Jesus said. I believe that if a person doesn’t accept Jesus’ sacrifice in their sted on the cross and doesn’t then follow Him they are lost and will go to hell. That’s extremely unfortunate to say the LEAST. Most people don’t believe this.
Jesus Himself spoke of Hell quite alot and if you read the 4 gospels - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John you would get a pretty good overview of his teachings and the way of life for yourself.
The main question that we all need to think about is “What do you do with Jesus?”
Also, He is interested in the church as he is the head of it. We are called the bride of Christ. His resurrection was the beginning of it. He proclaimed to those that looked at him from earth in his assension - to go into all the world and proclaim the good news to all … in Jerusalem and to the uttermost parts of the earth. That’s called the great commission.
If you want any Bible references just say so - but I think if you look into it yourself you will be convinced by Jesus or also known as the Word of God. John 1:1
Go to him with an open heart and he will hear you.
Sincerely in Christ,
Bevin Jesus said, I AM the Way the Truth and the Life, NO ONE comes to the Father except by (through) Me. John 14:6
