Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Mark 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. 43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 44Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
We live in a world where we have made everything we do and build for convenience , comfortable, enjoyable and keeps us from danger.
We have built an entire system to keep us from danger, from roads to experiencing danger but being safe , like a roller coaster.
There are many religions and people in general that has done away with hell. Look at us , why on earth would we even want to believe in such a thing. We certainly do not want to be reminded of it ,much less talk about it at Christmas , right ??? Some of the nicest people I know believe there is no hell. There will be many that are saying really , you are talking about hell at Christmas ,a time of fun and joy.
The birth of Jesus Christ we are suppose to be celebrating right now , we have turned into many things. We only have to go to Mall to see some of what we have done with it.
I personally love the Lights , Music and Joy this time of the year can bring.
Jesus was born , suffered , died and rose to keep us out of hell. We could not follow one rule in the Garden of Eden much less all those afterwards. We can not teach , preach or share the Birth of Jesus Christ without talking about hell ,because He did.
“Luke 3: 9And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. “
Good fruit was sharing the Whole Word of God and to keep people from being cast into the lake of fire.
The system we have created ,crept into our walks with God. God created a system to keep us from the dangers of hell fire. Jesus is very clear it is not easy , comfortable or even fun. We only have to look at His life , the life of Paul and Peter and all those before us , to see it was not an easy or fun. The pleasure and joy of this life was to be able to share the beginning and the end of the Bible and to spend eternity in Heaven. King Solomon and Jesus told us to stay away from the pleasures of this life, it got the people in trouble in the past and does now.
We have been in charge of many things for a long time. We have created all kinds of earthly pleasures and even made danger fun. We made Christmas fun and enjoyable and Easter fun and enjoyable. Where is that in Scriptures , where was it in the teachings of Jesus ?
In a time to make wishes , I wish hell was not real but it is. I wish Jesus did not have to be born in that uncomfortable manger but He was. I wish Jesus did not have to be rejected , suffer and die on that Cross to save us but He did.. These are not things we would create to keep us from the danger of hell fire or any danger.
Many nice and loving people , that do wonderful deeds are in danger of hell. Take time to really see why Jesus was born and why He went to the Cross.
We spend a lot of money, time and energy to keep our earthly bodies safe , have fun and be comfortable. We were to spend money , time and energy to keep our souls and Spirits from danger.
That is why Jesus was born... We were left the greatest gift anyone could receive , The Holy Spirit of God.” satan has whispered something else. There is nothing in a Mall or in the world that can top that gift.
“Proverbs 27:20 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.”
Murder , suicide is in the news way to much every Christmas season, why is that? We created a system of expectation that was outside of why Jesus was born. Judas shows us what happens when we go outside of why Jesus was born, suffered , died and rose for us.
This will not be popular in our time of feel good, our feel good does not come from this world ,in fact it places us in danger. Careful loved ones , read the Birth of Jesus Christ all the way to His death and why He even came. Jesus left us a good example of hell in Luke 16, read it and tell people why Jesus was really born for us...
Mark 9 is harsh but shows us how serious our walks with God should be ,in a time satan says , pleasure , fun, comfortable and easy!
