Okay. I am finally getting caught up after our trip to Indiana in which we were snowbound for a couple days.
Is hell real? Is hell forever? Have you ever noticed that people typically do not question the reality of heaven? Why do we do this?
Hell is so hard to understand and accept.
But we have God’s word. So we study and listen and believe.
- Check out the article in a previous post by Russell Moore. Excellent!
Can I understand how a loving God could send people away for judgment in this way? Not really. I know the theology but it seems so harsh.
- (Romans 11:33 ESV) Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!
However, I know God. I trust God. I believe his word. We cannot disbelieve because we do not understand. We cannot question the choices of a God whose wisdom is unsearchable and whose ways are past finding out.
So God says it, and I believe it.
- There is no doctrine which I would more willingly remove from Christianity than this, if it lay in my power. But it has the full support of Scripture and, specially, of our Lord’s own words; it has always been held by Christendom; and it has the support of reason (C.S. Lewis).
Here are two more handouts. I will be preaching from HANDOUTS 1-4 Sunday January 12 and Sunday January 19 Lord willing.
Then we begin our Ezra study.
