Jesus drank it all, every last drop, The holy fury of the Living God. Propitiation, the expression of Christ’s love For sinners, elect from the Father […]

Consider the power and majesty of Jesus Christ, even in the destruction of sinners. We read in Hebrews 1:3 that Jesus upholds “all things by the word of His power”. Whether stars or planets, lillies or lions, oceans or snow flakes, gasses or stones, angels or demons, or humans, the Lord Jesus Christ holds it […]

Consider that man’s condemnation is grounded in original sin, and for the sin of Adam, we are already condemned under the wrath of God (Romans 5:12).

Comments Off on An Atheist Responds to Everlasting Hell
PersonalFailure This morning I discovered through blogger stats that my article from yesterday, Hell Is Real, It’s Forever, and It’s No Party, was posted by a lady who calls herself PersonalFailure at her Forever in Hell blog. In the article, she took a few quotes from John MacArthur to criticize in wonderment how an “omnibenevolent” […]

I have recently had a few conversations with folks who have 1 or more of the following beliefs: 1) Hell will not be all that bad because their friends will be there. 2) How could a good God send people to hell for eternity? 3) They would rather go to hell than receive God’s gift […]
