The Reality of Hell

Hell is a reality. It is God's love refused.

When I cannot receive the love of God and consequently cannot respond to it, this is Hell.

When my life is occupied with the wrong kinds of gods, any entrance of the real God will be disturbing. Then the real God appears loathsome and ugly.

Hell means love dying forever, but God is a lover and cannot stop loving. Those in Hell are trapped forever in the most horrible of human relationships.

This meditation is not a matter feelings, but rather an awareness of the freedom of human choice.

JESUS WAS EXPLICIT ABOUT HELL!

Matthew 8:12 - a place of frustration
Matthew 5:29 - there is nothing worse
Matthew 25:41 - it is eternal
