Suppose Hell came on slowly- not quickly, abruptly- like a person who has cancer, they've had it for a while, they don't know it, they go to the doctor, the doctor says, "we've found (note that-found) a tumor," huh, that's almost now a standard sentence that we all recognize; isn't it? Did it happen over- night, no, it begins with a cell that goes rogue (note that title- it's important) and starts to continue to grow, without ceasing, a rampant, out of control cell- a cell without regulation (note that concept) a cell which won't stop growing. OK- there we are- the whole Enchilada - it looks to the doctor and the patient, like it's just now happened, but the doctor knows, it's been growing for some time. Suppose Hell came on slowly- not abruptly what might that look like?

What it takes to win some folks to Jesus is a thorough examination of the painful fact of Hell- that's just a fact, outlandish as it might seem to some, Hell is in fact, a very real place; even though in our modern world we want to try and explain it away; sorry, all the "Kum-By-Yah" in the world won't help an unforgiven sinner who passes over, they will end up in Hell.  Hell is spoken of 54 times as translated in the King James Version of the Scriptures; and that's if you only credit the Christian or Jewish or Hebrew Holy Books, if you consider other books considered to be Holy, the Hell they present, is spoken of, numerous times.  A divide, a place where there is no rest, a place where there is no direction, a place of torment, a place where the fiery sense is that of heat so intense brimstone melts: Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day an...
