Eternity - the Horror of Hell (Compilation)

It seems that when the wind of time comes, the Lord Jesus Christ stands and has him open the cap of hell. And he stands over the uncapped place called hell, cups his hands to his mouth, and delivers an eternal judgment on the people in hell. And the judgment is this, he condemns men and women throughout the long reaches of eternity in language like this.

Let him that doeth unjustly keep on doing unjustly. Let him that doeth filthily keep on doing filthily. Let him that doeth unrighteously keep on doing unrighteously.

That's the worst thing I can think about. What on God's earth is the condemnation that men are under, the awful judgment they'll have to undergo throughout eternity? Is to keep on sinning, that's exactly what it is. Keep on, sin on, sin on, sin on, sin on, sin on, sin on, sin on.

I failed. Ten million times worse than any literal suffering from any literal fire, and I do not deny, I suppose, of the physical suffering in hell. It causes physical suffering, yes, I suppose it will.

But ten million times worse would be to have to live throughout eternity under the judgment of God that all on God's earth I'll do. Is to keep on sinning, keep on sinning, keep on, keep on, as long as God lives. Keep on sinning, keep on sinning, keep on sinning, keep on sinning.

That's the binding judgment that falls on men and women. You spend eternity in the other place, not the holy place. That's hell.

That's hell. Just keep on sinning. The Bible says that the very plowing of the wicked is sin.

In other words, the Bible says everything a man does outside of Christ in this life is sin in the sight of God. And the awful judgment of hell is, just keep on. And so hell is a place where people have nothing to do but assign sin.

That's all. Enforcing, condemned, bound by the decree of the Lord Jesus Christ to sin all. Sin all.

That's hell. The loneliness of it. Nothing to do but amuse yourself.

Let me fill you in on something. You know the cute little statement that sounds so pretty? God loves the sinner and hates the sin? It's heresy. I'd just like to fill you in on that.

You know, when you start building your theology on clichés and things written on the back of Christian T-shirts, you're in trouble. God hates the sin and loves the sinner. The Bible says God hates all those who do wrong.

You say, well, what about John 3, 16? Well, it's inspired, but what about Psalms 5? It's inspired too. God hates the workers of iniquity. It doesn't say He hates iniquity.

It says He hates the workers of iniquity. What does it mean? Just what Jesus said about the wrath of God abiding on men that did not believe Him. The wrath of God abides upon the unconverted.

And if they die in that state, they will experience eternal wrath and hell. And don't think, my friend, that hell is hell because God's not there. That's a very popular teaching.

You know, hell's hell because God's not there. No, hell is hell because God is there. His wrath is there.

His face is set against them throughout all eternity. Don't think in hell you're going to escape God. You see, we have such a pathetic idea of forensics, of what is legal, of justice.

We do not understand. You say, why is hell eternal? Sins were committed against an infinitely, infinitely holy God. Not only that, but never forget this, my dear friend.

There's no repentance in hell. The punishment continues because the rebellion continues. C.S. Lewis said something one time I think is very, very true.

In a sense, just listen, he said the door to hell is locked from the inside. The point that he was trying to make was not that God was willing to let anybody out. The point that he was making was no one wanted out.

Men so hate God, they would rather suffer hell than step outside and bow their knee to Him. You have no idea how depraved men are.
