The Lake Of Fire is often mentioned in scripture and is described as a place of final destruction for the Wicked,Ungodly, and The Hater Of God. It is described as a fiery oven, a furnace of fire, and a place where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth when the Wicked are cast into it.
The Bible gives Ominous warnings about this place and how terrible the sufferings of anyone who is unfortunate enough to be found worthy of it, and cast into it when they are judged.
But you seldom hear any mention of it in the sermons of so many self proclaimed ministers today. And based on the teachings of so many of these ministers, it would appear that no one is really on a destination with this horrific, terrifying place.
But yet the Bible clearly points out its real, and many individuals both men and women will be cast into it on the day of judgment.
So why do most false ministers completely disregard and skirt around the issue? Well, the ignorance is primarily the result of the false teaching of salvation by grace through faith only. Which teaches that a simple verbal acceptance of Christ alone–as ones savior without obedience to the commandments and word of God as a whole, and without any real change in behavior is all that is required to be considered righteous in the eyes of God and to escape this punishment.
So based on this false teaching which is centered around, and based on a simple verbal acceptance of Jesus Christ alone–as ones savior–many believe that they are acquitted of all sinful behavior because of this. So they are deceived into believing that the reality of the Lake Of Fire simply doesn’t apply to them. But honestly, nothing could be further from the truth.
Malachi 4:1-4
4 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
Matthew 7:13-14
King James Version (KJV)
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Matthew 13:40-43
King James Version (KJV)
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Matthew 13:49-50
King James Version (KJV)
49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Revelation 20:11-15
King James Version (KJV)
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Revelation 21:7-8
King James Version (KJV)
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Are You A Hater Of God?
What is a hater of God? And what determines how you really feel about God?Does a verbal acceptance of Christ determine if you really love God or is it much more than that?
Did you know that God promises in his word to repay all them that hate him to their face to destroy them ? Deuteronomy 7:10, Psalms 21:8-9, also notice Malachi4:1, Matthew 13:41-43, Matthew 13:49-50. Jesus own words.
Jesus himself said that broad or wide, expansive, big is the way that leads to destruction and many go in, or many are destroyed, but straight and narrow is the way that leads to life and few find it. Are we not to believe God or Christ themselves!?
Notice Matthew 7:13-14, In light of such an ominous prophecy I think it is important for us to determine what exactly constitutes a hater of God. So how can you really know if you are a hater of God or not?
What determines if you love, respect, or just outright hate God? In this audio I mention that over 3 billion people will die in coming events I mentioned 1/3 of the population but obviously what I meant was 3/4 of the earths population will perish. And my reference to the number of people who inhabit the earth was wrong as well that was a slight error because I think as it presently stands the earths population is around 6-7 billion sorry if I confused anyone just speaking a little too fast.
