Hell Is Real Whether You Believe It Or Not

Hell Is Real!  Whether One Believes It or Not!
I heard from someone who consistently persisted.
On trying to somehow “prove” hell never existed.

I talked about God’s word and righteous deeds.
He compared this to man’s failures and needs.

He tried to explain Christ’ death on the cross…
And what it really means to be eternally lost.

Though God’s word speaks of hell quite often…
A different kind of gospel is what was taught him.

For God so loved the world, he sent his only son.
A sacrificial lamb, is what he would become!

Through him, a way to heaven, the price was paid!
Our sins, for his grace, was offered in a trade!

Jesus clearly warned us of hell and eternal fire.
It’s not his will for us to be there, nor his desire!

There’s a heaven to gain!  Don’t be one who misses out!
We all need to focus on what salvation is about!

Through Jesus, we can all escape
 hell’s eternal flame!
By accepting unmerited grace, 
through HIS precious name!

Will you join me?  Let’s humbly bow before Jesus
and confess our sins!
Then the reality of God’s righteousness
 will surely begin!
