BELIEF + SUFFERING

“Don’t expect to be able to filter suffering out of your life without reducing your belief in Christ.”

UNCOMFORTABLE WITH HELL ?

Uncomfortable* with talk about hell ?

  • leading to-

Uncomfortable in hell ?


? ‘Uncomfortable’ ? in hell
—NO ! ! !
—Torment** ! ! ! in hell


Are Christians uncomfortable talking to people about hell, and how to not go there, because talk will make them uncomfortable – – – or worse ?

Nothing, nothing else matters in the end (our end), but first the question of heaven or hell—where are you going when you die ?



* UNCOMFORTABLE ? ? ?
We must talk to people about hell—not hopefully assume they’re okay, going to heaven.

In hell the rich man pleaded for God to send someone from the dead to warn his brothers to not go to hell.
Response from heaven: If they do not listen to the Law and the Gospel (the Bible), they will not repent if someone rises from the dead.

** TORMENT X! X! X!
In hell the rich man pleaded for God to send someone to dip their finger in water and cool his tongue, because he was in agony, torment, in the flame.



Hell is real !
Hell is agony ! !
Hell is torment ! ! !
Don’t let someone go to hell because you didn’t tell them how to avoid hell.

HOW ?
Admit you’re a sinner.
Believe Jesus paid for your sin.
Ask Him to be in charge of your life.

TOO MUCH GOOD – – – TO – – – TOO MUCH BETTER

It is possible for someone with very high IQ and very high education with very high knowledge, to develop very high confidence in what they have.
There is then very great danger in thinking they are better.
Even greater danger is communicating this to others who seem to have less—not so high IQ, not so high education, not so high knowledge, not so high confidence.

Do you know how you make someone else feel when you interact with them ?

Does that person feel that you think you are better ?

Does that person feel that you think they are not as good ?

The person who is blessed with much (IQ, education, knowledge, confidence) must seek to use it to help others, with humility.
Show others, one at a time, that you care—and they see you care—more than showing them what you know.

Helping others with what you know really matters only when you share it beside them, not above them.
