Satan took away the fear of God’s judgment with Eve. He told her she would not surely die. She chose to
believe the voice of the devil and chose not to believe the voice of Almighty God. She sinned and later
died, just as God said—even though she had chosen not to believe it would happen.
There are many cults and false religions in this generation that choose to believe the lies of Satan. Some say
there is no such place as hell. Some say it is hell living on this earth. Some admit that there is a hell;
however, they believe God sends no one there. Some admit that there is a hell, but only the vilest people go
there.
There is even a certain denomination that claims there is a purgatory. They teach that most people go there
instead of hell, and that, ultimately, most will be in heaven.
All these false ideas and doctrines, which contradict the Word of God, come from the devil. They often
have the same intent as Satan had in the Garden of Eden. That intent is, to take away the fear of God’s
judgment. This deception worked with Eve. It works with millions of people today. It is written:
Job 28:28-AND UNTO MAN HE SAID, BEHOLD, THE FEAR OF THE LORD, THAT IS WISDOM;
AND TO DEPART FROM EVIL IS UNDERSTANDING.
Pv 3:7-BE NOT WISE IN THINE OWN EYES: FEAR THE LORD, AND DEPART FROM EVIL.
Pv 16:6-BY THE FEAR OF THE LORD MEN DEPART FROM EVIL. Once this fear of God and His
judgment is removed, then people go forth willfully and sin.
So often when a person dies, people will say, "He has gone to a better place now." They don’t understand
that most people perish to hell, not to heaven. While they are thinking that person has gone to a better
place, they are actually crying out in torment words like, "I AM TORMENTED IN THIS FLAME." Indeed,
Satan does deceive the whole world.
Some say it is wrong to scare people with such teaching. This statement is contrary to God’s Word. Most
people are unsaved. This is confirmed in the Scriptures. Only a few inherit eternal life. When an unsaved
person dies, they perish to a place called hell. In hell, they are tormented day and night in the flame. Their
tongue, in some manner, is set on fire. There appear to be various levels in hell, which seems to be located
down in the center or bowels of the earth. Some have described hell as being like a volcano, but a person’s
spirit does not die. They will retain their memory of the past and of their loved ones. It appears they will
remember every single time that they had a chance to repent and receive Jesus as their Savior, but they
refused. In hell, the condemned person will also remember his loved ones and will be in further anguish at
the thought of them also perishing to this place of torment. It may be said, any person who dies unsaved, it
would have been better for that person if they had never been born. For a very short time, they lived on the
earth in rebellion to God’s will. They refused God’s love and mercy. Now, they shall suffer; they shall be
tormented.
The unsaved person will remain in hell until after the Millennium has expired on the earth. The unjust are
reserved to the day of judgment.
At the time of the great white throne judgment, the sea, death and hell deliver up all the dead that are there
for the final judgment. The books are opened. There they are judged by their works. They are judged
according to what they did. For this brief time, they should have some relief from the horrible torment of
the flame.
At some point during this process, it appears they are beaten with few or many stripes.
Finally, they are cast into the eternal lake of fire, which was prepared for Satan and his angels. This is
called "the second death." There they will be tormented day and night, for ever and ever. There will never
be any hope of escape. There will never be any hope of release. This is the eternal destiny of most people.
What a horrible time it will be! Dying, then going to hell, then to the great white throne judgment, and
finally being cast into the eternal lake of fire. During this process, people will see Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but "you" yourself cast out-ref Lk 13:28. The people
will be crying. There will be gnashing of teeth. This is the final destiny for all that reject the forgiveness of
their sins which is ONLY possible through Jesus Christ. This is the end result for those that refuse to do the
will of God. This is the end result for those that refuse to repent of all willful sin and serve the Lord.
Satan will ultimately be in the lake of fire. The false prophet and the Antichrist will be there. The rich man
will be there. Many preachers, Sunday school teachers, church choir singers, and even missionaries will be
there. Consider carefully. Again it needs to be said. Most people that have ever lived will be there. Only a
few shall receive eternal life and forever be with the Lord.
We might say these words, 2 Cor 5:11-KNOWING THEREFORE THE TERROR OF THE LORD, WE
PERSUADE MEN.
2-GOD’S LOVE
The question is asked, YE SERPENTS, YE GENERATION OF VIPERS, HOW CAN YE ESCAPE THE
DAMNATION OF HELL?-Mt 23:33. For THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH-Ro 6:23.
There is a way of escaping hell or eternal death. As it is written, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD,
THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD
NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE-Jn 3:16.
HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE: AND HE THAT BELIEVETH
NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE; BUT THE WRATH OF GOD ABIDETH ON HIM-Jn 3:36. (The
word "believe," as used here, means a total uncompromising commitment of love and obedience.)
James warns about our tongue. AND THE TONGUE IS A FIRE, A WORLD OF INIQUITY: SO IS THE
TONGUE AMONG OUR MEMBERS, THAT IT DEFILETH THE WHOLE BODY, AND SETTETH ON
FIRE THE COURSE OF NATURE; AND IT (the tongue) IS SET ON FIRE OF HELL-Ja 3:6. The tongue
—the unruly member of our body that no man can tame—will be set on fire. That is why the rich man said,
in Lk 16:24-FATHER ABRAHAM, HAVE MERCY ON ME, AND SEND LAZARUS, THAT HE MAY
DIP THE TIP OF HIS FINGER IN WATER, AND COOL MY TONGUE.
AND IF THY HAND OFFEND THEE, CUT IT OFF: IT IS BETTER FOR THEE TO ENTER INTO LIFE
MAIMED, THAN HAVING TWO HANDS TO GO INTO HELL, INTO THE FIRE THAT NEVER
SHALL BE QUENCHED-Mk 9:43.
Perhaps you have a little love affair now and then, a little fling. It is written, HER HOUSE IS THE WAY
TO HELL, GOING DOWN TO THE CHAMBERS OF DEATH-Pv 7:27. BUT HE KNOWETH NOT
THAT THE DEAD ARE THERE; AND THAT HER GUESTS ARE IN THE DEPTHS OF HELL-Pv 9:18.
Note, HE KNOWETH NOT...HER GUESTS ARE IN...HELL.
The Bible warns people that forsake the way of God to receive correction or die. CORRECTION IS
GRIEVOUS UNTO HIM THAT FORSAKETH THE WAY: AND HE THAT HATETH REPROOF (or
correction) SHALL DIE-Pv 15:10.
The Bible also teaches that EVERY TREE WHICH BRINGETH NOT FORTH GOOD FRUIT IS HEWN
DOWN (or cut down), AND CAST INTO THE FIRE-Mt 3:10.
Mt 24:48-BUT AND IF THAT EVIL SERVANT SHALL SAY IN HIS HEART, MY LORD DELAYETH
HIS COMING;
49-AND SHALL BEGIN TO SMITE HIS FELLOWSERVANTS, (note the next words) AND TO EAT
AND DRINK WITH THE DRUNKEN;
50-THE LORD OF THAT SERVANT SHALL COME IN A DAY WHEN HE LOOKETH NOT FOR HIM,
AND IN AN HOUR THAT HE IS NOT AWARE OF,
51-AND SHALL CUT HIM ASUNDER, AND APPOINT HIM HIS PORTION WITH THE
HYPOCRITES: THERE SHALL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH.
8-THE PIT
The place called hell is often referred to in the Bible as "the pit" or "bottomless pit." It is a place that is in
the earth below or the lower parts of the earth.
I CAST HIM DOWN TO HELL WITH THEM THAT DESCEND INTO THE PIT-Ezek 31:16. Note the
words, hell and pit.
O LUCIFER...THOU SHALT BE BROUGHT DOWN TO HELL, TO THE SIDES OF THE PIT-Isa
14:12,15. When Jesus returns in glory, Satan shall be bound for one thousand years. As it is written, AND
HE LAID HOLD ON THE DRAGON, THAT OLD SERPENT, WHICH IS THE DEVIL, AND SATAN,
AND BOUND HIM A THOUSAND YEARS, AND CAST HIM INTO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT, AND
SHUT HIM UP, AND SET A SEAL UPON HIM, THAT HE SHOULD DECEIVE THE NATIONS NO
MORE, TILL THE THOUSAND YEARS SHOULD BE FULFILLED: AND AFTER THAT HE MUST
BE LOOSED A LITTLE SEASON-Rev 20:2,3.
THEY SHALL LIE WITH THE UNCIRCUMCISED, AND WITH THEM THAT GO DOWN TO THE
PIT-Ezek 32:29. The uncircumcised represent of the unsaved.
WHEN I SHALL BRING THEE DOWN WITH THEM THAT DESCEND INTO THE PIT...IN THE
LOW PARTS OF THE EARTH-Ezek 26:20. The Scripture is giving us a location of the pit (hell).
THEY ARE ALL DELIVERED UNTO DEATH, TO THE NETHER PARTS OF THE EARTH (or the earth
below)...WITH THEM THAT GO DOWN TO THE PIT-Ezek 31:14.
CAST THEM DOWN...UNTO THE NETHER PARTS OF THE EARTH (or to the earth below), WITH
THEM THAT GO DOWN INTO THE PIT-Ezek 32:18.
Consider that hell may be like being in molten lava inside a great volcano—with no way of escape.
1. The first reference to any one being cast into the eternal lake of fire is the Antichrist and false prophet at
the return of Jesus Christ-Rev 19:20. AND THE BEAST (or Antichrist) WAS TAKEN, AND…THE
FALSE PROPHET...THESE...WERE CAST ALIVE INTO A LAKE OF FIRE-Rev 19:20.
2. Following the return of Jesus Christ and the Battle of Armageddon, the judgment of the nations (which is
also called "the throne of glory") will be held for those that survive. The goats (the unsaved), those on His
left, those that did not bear good fruit, shall be cast into the eternal lake of fire, everlasting punishment-ref
Mt 25:31-46.
AND BEFORE HIM SHALL BE GATHERED ALL NATIONS: AND HE SHALL SEPARATE THEM
ONE FROM ANOTHER, AS A SHEPHERD DIVIDETH HIS SHEEP FROM THE GOATS: AND HE
SHALL SET THE SHEEP ON HIS RIGHT HAND, BUT THE GOATS ON THE LEFT-Mt 25:32,33.
THEN SHALL HE SAY ALSO UNTO THEM ON THE LEFT HAND, DEPART FROM ME, YE
CURSED, INTO EVERLASTING FIRE, PREPARED FOR THE DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS. Note: the
lake of fire was prepared for the devil and his angels. All that follow the devil’s ways will go there. FOR I
WAS AN HUNGRED, AND YE GAVE ME NO MEAT: I WAS THIRSTY, AND YE GAVE ME NO
DRINK: I WAS A STRANGER, AND YE TOOK ME NOT IN: NAKED, AND YE CLOTHED ME NOT:
SICK, AND IN PRISON, AND YE VISITED ME NOT. THEN SHALL THEY ALSO ANSWER HIM,
SAYING, LORD, WHEN SAW WE THEE AN HUNGRED, OR ATHIRST, OR A STRANGER, OR
NAKED, OR SICK, OR IN PRISON, AND DID NOT MINISTER UNTO THEE? THEN SHALL HE
ANSWER THEM, SAYING, VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, INASMUCH AS YE DID IT NOT TO ONE
OF THE LEAST OF THESE, YE DID IT NOT TO ME. AND THESE SHALL GO AWAY INTO
EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT-Mt 25:41-46.
3. After the Millennium has expired and Satan has been let loose from the "pit or hell" for a little season,
then Satan himself will be cast into the eternal lake of fire. AND WHEN THE THOUSAND YEARS ARE
EXPIRED, SATAN SHALL BE LOOSED OUT OF HIS PRISON, AND SHALL GO OUT TO DECEIVE
THE NATIONS...AND THEY WENT UP ON THE BREADTH OF THE EARTH, AND COMPASSED
THE CAMP OF THE SAINTS ABOUT, AND THE BELOVED CITY: AND FIRE CAME DOWN FROM
GOD OUT OF HEAVEN, AND DEVOURED THEM. 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 AND NIGHT FOR EVER AND EVER-Rev
20:7-10.
4. After THE EARTH AND THE HEAVEN FLED AWAY-Rev 20:11, the great white throne judgment is
held. All the people that were in hell are delivered up to be judged here. Then death and hell are cast into
the eternal lake of fire-Rev 20:11-15. THE FEARFUL (or cowardly), AND UNBELIEVING (those who do
not believe what Jesus says), AND THE ABOMINABLE (or vile), AND MURDERERS, AND
WHOREMONGERS (or sexually immoral), AND SORCERERS (those who practice magic arts-NIV),
AND IDOLATERS, AND ALL LIARS, SHALL HAVE THEIR PART IN THE LAKE WHICH
BURNETH WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE: WHICH IS THE SECOND DEATH-Rev 21:8.
And this know, HE THAT OVERCOMETH SHALL NOT BE HURT OF THE SECOND DEATH-Rev
2:11.
• FOR THE DESOLATE (the devil) HATH MANY MORE CHILDREN THAN SHE WHICH
HATH AN HUSBAND (Jesus)-Gal 4:27
• MANY...DECEIVERS-Titus 1:10
Jesus said, MY FRIENDS, BE NOT AFRAID OF THEM THAT KILL THE BODY, AND AFTER THAT
HAVE NO MORE THAT THEY CAN DO. BUT I WILL FOREWARN YOU WHOM YE SHALL FEAR:
FEAR HIM, WHICH AFTER HE HATH KILLED HATH POWER TO CAST INTO HELL; YEA, I SAY
UNTO YOU, FEAR HIM-Lk 12:4,5.
