During "Go For Souls" we were challenged to ask God to show us hell. We were told that one of the reasons why we don't evangelise as we should is because hell isn't real enough. I think thats a good point. Imagine if we actually applied that to the people we love, our friends, family, neighbours etc! Man, would we be busy!
Anyway, i had a vision of hell at the conference, here it is...
I saw the gates to hell and behind it were people aglow. they were glowing because it was so hot. And, they were all weird looking like they'd been melted. And as i stood at the gate into hell i saw hands reaching out, trying to escape. But, sadly, they couldnt. The other thing about it was that there was no sound. no screaming, because there tongues were so parched.
i was talking to someone who knew someone who worked with William booth. when he was asked why Booth was such an effective evangelist he paused then said, "Because he had such a strong belief in hell." Wow.
i don't know about you, but I don't want anyone to go to hell. And as Catherine Booth said, "Its Jesus or Hell!" Or as Jesus said when talking about Himself, "Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son"
freinds dont let friends burn in hell.

Hi James,
I am not really too sure about what hell is exactly.
Is it what we think it is??
Does it unequivically say in the bible that when we die we will go from earth to another place....sent to a place called hell?

Interesting vision. However, how do you know what you saw is in fact a picture of hell seeing as Scripture really doesn't give us all that much information. How do you know you haven't been duped by your own over active imagination rather than been informed by Scripture?
Hi James,
Just wondering if you have answer for my original post.
