Everlastingly Lost and Forgotten

The majority of people deny God
live a life godless, selfish and no hope
putting death behind them unthinkable
just expecting to live on no matter its slope

God has warned in His holy word
all have sinned fell absolutely short
of God's glory for there's an account
that one day truly will come into port

At that final day of accounting
God will send all who reject  His love
to darkness and indescribable pain
that will never end nor be enough

Everlastingly lost and forgotten
total darkness not knowing where to turn
remembering so often rejected the gospel
now deeply regretting how they did spurn

The scriptures said the penalty of sin is death
meaning physical and spiritual no less
all of eternity this has absolutely no end
in life, you said no when God wanted to bless

(This is written thinking on what I believe hell will be like for those that reject the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.)

I would never reject the Gospel of Christ even if I was threatened with death - I believe, and am God fearing. I would never be able to look at myself in a mirror again or live with myself for that matter. Great write Gordon. Blessings, Jennifer

The prophets were tasked by God to both pronounce warning to those who denied God and hope to those who followed him. Bravo for this bold statement of warning in the pattern of those prophets, including Christ! Blessings, John

The warnings are there Gordon, but still many think it doesn't apply to them and as the good book says there will be much regret and gnashing of teeth. Tom
