In today’s sermon, Greg Ho teaches on the four horrors of hell:
- The darkness of hell
- The sorrow of hell
- The pain of hell
- The eternity of hell
Greg explains that, to understand why hell is so horrible, we must understand the holiness of God; God’s holiness is the fuel of hell’s fires. Despite God’s holiness, He does not take pleasure in the death of the wicked. The Father sent His Son Jesus Christ to make atonement for sin so that men can escape the horrors of hell. Greg concludes by exhorting Christians to warn people of the reality of hell and to urge people to avoid the way to that place.

well when I was in high school I remember that as part of our English curriculum we’re required to read the sermon sinners in the hands of an Angry God the sermon was preached by the great Jonathan Edwards during the time of the Great Awakening and it’s really one of the most famous sermons ever preached one of the things that made the sermon most remarkable was the reaction it received when he preached it during one Sunday in July in 1741 in Enfield Connecticut there were people moaning and crying throughout the whole church what shall I do to be saved oh I am going to hell and at one point the preacher had to stop the sermon entirely because he couldn’t talk over all of the shrieking and crying in the sermon Edwards who by the way is actually buried just a few miles from here in Princeton used a series of memorable word images to drive home his main point the point was quote there is nothing that keeps wicked men at any one moment out of hell but the mere pleasure of God God let me read to you two of my favorite quotes from The Sermon here’s one quote Edward says this the bow of God’s Wrath is bent and the arrow made ready on the string and Justice bends the arrow at your heart and strains the bow and is nothing it is nothing but the mere pleasure of God and that of an Angry God without any promise or obligation at all that keeps the arrow one moment from being made drunk with your blood here’s another this is probably my favorite the God that holds you over the pit of Hell much as one holds a spider or some Lo some insect over the fire uphor you and as dread Yul provoked his wrath towards you burns like fire he looks upon you as worthy of nothing else but to be cast Into the Fire he is of purer eyes than to Bear to have you in his sight you are 10,000 more times more abominable in his eyes than the most hateful venomous serpent in it is in ours you have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn Rebel did his Prince and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into the fire every moment back when we read this sermon as an assignment in high school we read the sermon mostly to mock it we derogatorily dismissed Edwards as one of those fire and brimstone preachers we wrote essays about how quaint the sermon was maybe how emotionally manipulative it was and with our nose high in the air we poo pooed how contrary it was to our now enlightened and Cosmopolitan understanding of the world but nevertheless those images they stuck with me spider hanging by a thread the bow tensed with the arrow pointed at your heart and it was only years later after I became a Christian that I came to see the sermon In a Different Light not as a piece of melodrama but an accurate warning that if anything actually understates the real danger that you are in I don’t think I have to tell you that today this type of preaching has largely vanished in fact if you visit any church in the United States it is extremely unlikely that you’ll even hear hell mentioned much less hear a whole sermon on it churches have bi and large stopped talking about hell entirely and that’s very much by Design in fact there was one survey of Evangelical Seminary students Seminary students 46% that’s almost half felt that preaching about hell to unbelievers was quote in poor taste poor taste poor taste is not preaching about hell and watching silently as your whole congregation slides into it I’ve heard one preacher put it this way to not preach about hell is like being the doctor who finds that his patient has a curable cancer it’s a curable cancer there is a treatment that will cure him completely but the doctor not wanting to offend the patient or upset him says nothing and watches as his patient slowly dies friends that’s not tolerance that is cruelty that’s cruelty and for every Pastor who treats his congregation that way that is not love that is ha hatred and Christians for you too for you to know the truth about hell and to stay silent in the face of your neighbors your family and your friends that’s cruelty it’s up to you to warn them so this morning we’re going to look together at what the Bible says about hell I want us all to be clear about what hell is what the danger is so that it will it will ignite a proper sense of urgency in us now before we get into it I just want to say one thing I want to make it clear that I take no pleasure in talking about hell or even thinking about hell Nobody Does the Bible says even God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked and neither do we I wish that what I was going to preach to you now was not real I wish it was an exaggeration the doctrine of Hell disturbs me it disturbs me to my innermost being and it should disturb you too if you properly understand it you would not wish this fate not even on your worst enemy but of course we don’t get to choose what’s in the Bible do we we can only read what God put into it okay now before you could understand hell you need to understand one thing and that is the Holiness of God the Holiness of God see hell will not make any sense to you whatsoever until you grasp the Holiness of God why does Hell have to be so horrible because God Is So holy God Is So holy and so righteous and pure that he cannot even look upon sin yet you and I we are nothing but corruption we sin and we see continually in our thought in our words and in our Deeds so much sin in fact that it no longer seems that bad to us anymore does it but God is perfect and pure and holy and hell is the full force of that Holiness and judgment Unleashed upon Sinners listen to this the the fuel of the fires of hell is what the Holiness of God that’s the fuel of the fire so everyone in this room everyone in this world has sinned and everyone deserves to go to hell and yet and yet some will escape how can we escape the horrors of Hell the Bible provides a way and this is the way to think about it God is pure and holy cannot look upon sin so somehow we need to become pure and holy and without sin just like God that’s the only way we can be acceptable into heaven and to do that we need to get rid of our sin how can we get rid of our sin God in his deep mercy and his deep love and his pity at Great cost to himself has made a way for us God has sent his son Jesus Christ who as God’s son is pure and holy and without sin He sent Jesus into the world so he could die and pay the punishment that you need to bear in hell so you can transfer your sin to Jesus on the cross and then God will transfer the righteousness of Jesus unto you so then you will be perfectly righteous in the eyes of God as if you were Jesus Christ himself you get that that’s the way to escape hell the way to become part of that deal is by faith in Christ Jesus by faith in Christ Jesus if you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died on the cross for your sins then you will never experience the horrors that we’ll talk about today remember Jesus came to the world to save Sinners but save sinners from what did you ever ask that question to save sinners from what to save sinners from hell that was his primary mission in coming to Earth it shouldn’t surprise you then to know that Jesus had a great deal to say about hell great deal to say remember this is Jesus we’re talking about gentle Jesus he cured the sick he healed the Blind and the lame compassionate Jesus who fed the hungry ministered to the poor and needy this Jesus is the one preaching over and over about the fires of hell he did not stay silent Jesus was not afraid of a offending you Jesus didn’t pull any punches that’s the kind of preacher he was in fact the majority of what we know about hell we know from Jesus Jesus speaks of it in just to give you an example Jesus speaks of it in Matthew 5 that’s his very first sermon that’s recorded Matthew 10 Matthew 11 Matthew 13 Matthew 16 Matthew 18 Matthew 23 that’s just the Book of Matthew and when Jesus spoke of hell I want you to understand he spoke of it as a real place it’s a real place hell is not a metaphor it’s not a figure of speech it is a very real place as real as the pews and the chairs that you are sitting in right now just to show you an example of that I want to read from you from to read to you from Matthew 13:41 when Jesus not only spoke of hell as a real place but remarkably remarkably he spoke of throwing people into it personally let me read to you from Matthew 13:41 it says this a son of man that’s Jesus will send forth his angels and they will will gather out of his kingdom all stumbling blocks and Those who commit lawlessness and will throw them into the furnace of fire that’s hell did you catch that son of man throwing them into the furnace of fire not only is hell a real place it will be Jesus himself that throws you in all right so now with that introduction we’re ready to look at what Jesus says about hell what the scriptures say about hell the scriptures tells us a great deal about hell and I’ve organized what the scriptures say about hell into about four main categories we we’ll call them four horrors of hell four horrors of hell and I just want to pause for a moment now to ask for God’s blessing on the rest of our sermon let’s just bow for a moment of prayer father pray that that Lord you would be in here in the sermon that as we preach it as we look in your word that everything we see and we read we would be attentive to so that we some of us can escape the fires of Hell Jesus name amen here’s the first horror of hell that we see in the scriptures first horror is Darkness Darkness in multiple places the scriptures talk of hell as black darkness this is for example Jude 13 and and also in 2 Peter 2:17 literally the term means the Blackness of Darkness the very blackest black that Darkness can be now even as an adult I find few things as terrifying as being stranded in total darkness don’t you it’s not often that we find ourselves in darkness today there’s Street lamps there’s LED lights everywhere we almost never experience total darkness but if you are engulfed in total darkness it is terrifying it is terrifying to be totally blind you can see nothing and you are totally helpless but it’s not just literal darkness that the Bible is speaking of here because darkness is really the absence of something right what is it the absence of of light that’s right and consistently in the Bible who is the light God is the light Jesus is the light 1 John 15 tells us that God is light and in him there is no what Darkness at all Jesus refers to himself in John 8:12 as the light of the world Revelation 12 21 tells us that the new heavens and the Earth will not need a Sun or a moon because the glory of God will be the light you see if God is the light then the black darkness is the utter absence of God indeed 2 Thessalonians 1:9 tells us that hell will be away from the present of the Lord and from the glory of his power now if you hate God this might not seem like such a bad thing to you but realize the Bible tells us that every good and perfect thing in this world comes from God and the utter Blackness of Hell will be utterly devoid of those things there will be no creativity in hell because the creative Force comes from God there will be no interesting things in Hell there will be no new technology no new innovation no Sports no entertainment no politics or art or movies or books no learning no imagination and there will be no Beauty in this Darkness you will never behold Beauty ever again you will hear no music to soothe your soul there will be nothing pleasing for your senses to enjoy at all also there will be no joyful family reunions there will be no companionship there will be no Embraces from your wife or your husband or your children you will be forever alone abandoned in the complete darkness in fact you will have been literally abandoned by God how do I know in Matthew 27 verse 46 we read that Jesus on the cross cried out saying what what do you cry out my God my God why have you what forsaken me Jesus was showing us what being judged by God looks like what does that mean watch this Jesus cried out and in response does God comfort him no Jesus received no comfort did God send him any Aid no he received no help did Co did God come and get him in response to his cry his father did not come to get him or to relieve his pain in any way God turned a deaf ear no sympathy no relief no encouragement Jesus was abandoned on that cross and likewise when you are in Hell crying out to God for mercy your cries will be met with nothing but cold dark silence abandoned in the darkness Jesus refers to this Darkness again as the outer darkness in Matthew 8:12 Matthew 2213 Matthew 25 30 it is the outer Darkness I’d like to look at one of those verses with you and turn with you turn with me in your Bibles to Matthew 2211 let’s turn to Matthew 2211 I want to look at this one in Matthew 22 Jesus is telling a story he’s telling a parable and Jesus tells the story of a king who throws a wedding Feast he Slaughters the fatted calf the king does he sets the table he pulls out all the stops and he makes everything ready for the joyful banquet and then the king invites everybody into the banquet hall but but when the guests arrive the king looks over the crowd and he sees someone out of place out of place let’s see how the king responds in verse 11 but when the king came in to look over the dinner guests he saw a man there who was not dressed in wedding clothes and he said to him friend how did you come in here without wedding clothes and the man was speechless now listen to this then the king said to the servants bind him hand and foot and throw him into the outer Darkness stop right there you say wow that’s really harsh for violating dress code right but you have to realize that the wedding garment represents something in this Parable it represents something the wedding garment is the righteousness of Jesus Christ and you see God is only going to let those who are clothed in the righteousness of Jesus Christ obtained by faith in Christ Jesus into his banquet you need to have the proper attire and it’s God’s righteousness but for the guy who tried to show up without it who tried to show up in the filthy rags of his own sinfulness God says bind them up tie him up so he can’t move and throw him into the outer darkness and then in the verse back in the verse it says in that what place see it’s a real place it’s a real place see the term outer Darkness here literally means the darkness of the outer the darkness of the outer throw him into the darkness of the outer place and so here’s the comparison that Jesus is making here okay consider the wedding Feast Bright Lights merryment joy and celebration food and drink to go around prepared by the king himself love there is love there there is companionship there is fellowship fulfillment peace contentment and in stark contrast to that far away from that is the darkness of the outer place you are thrown so far away from that place of Joy so far that even if you would strain with your eyes you couldn’t see it as even a speck in the distance that’s the picture that’s the picture so the first horror that we see in hell is darkness and the second horror is this sorrow sorrow a deep internal anguish look again in the verse in Matthew 22 in verse 13 the king says bind him hand and foot and throw him into into the outer darkness and in that place there will be weeping you see in hell you will retain your ability to feel emotion some translations will render this word weeping wailing this is emotion so deep that it bubbles up in you as a scream you will weep and you will whail out of a sense of deep loss deep loss some of you have struggled with or known somebody who struggles with depression and you would know the suffering that that causes the Deep sense of hopelessness of Despair and you can’t shake it I imagine that the Deep darkness and depression of hell would be but a the Deep darkness of depression would be but a faint shadow of the sorrow in hell and you’ll have a lot to be sad about for example you will have lost everything that matters to you family friends hope Joy achieve achievements accomplishments gone forever and finally but even more than that you will weep because of your own guilt and your own shame your conscience which in this life you have suppressed and seared will be brought back with Crystal Clarity and an awesome force and it will accuse you you will remember all of the sins that you are guilty of and your conscience will torture you forever over them this deep shame will also be accompanied by a deep sense of rejection knowing that God your creator has rejected you most of us in this life have lived through rejection haven’t we then some form another maybe a significant other or a spouse or a parent and we know the kind of Sorrow that rejection in this life can bring but in hell you will be rejected by God the one person in the universe of most worth whose opinion counts the most and who the the one person who loves you the most and whom knows you the best he will reject you and the type of Anguish you will feel over this rejection will be incomparable to any Earthly rejection that you can imagine this is the kind of rejection that’s spoken of in Daniel 12:2 it tells us that those who sleep in the dust of the ground who aren’t raised to eternal life will be raised to what disgrace an everlasting contempt contempt you will feel disgrace you will feel in your bones the contempt of God himself the word contempt is can also be translated abhorrence abhorrence abhorrence is something that generates revulsion or loathing and this is how God will feel about you God will be repulsed by you so will all of creation and and so will you yourself when you see yourself for what you really are you will weep and wail in Sorrow by the way I just want to point out to you how much of a contrast this is to the picture in heaven in heaven God says he will wipe every what tear from your eyes in Revelation 12 4 says that there will be no longer any mourning or crying or pain in heaven there will be no sorrow but in Hell nothing but sorrow well we’ve looked at the horror of Darkness we’ve looked at the horror of sorrow and we come to the third horror the horror of pain pain hell is not merely the absence of God although it is that and hell is not merely an internal sorrow although it is that but it is also God’s active wrath and his full Justice poured out on you it is God’s active punishment remember back in Matthew 22:3 how do we finish that verse in that place there will be weeping and what nashing of teeth nashing of teeth this is pain so excruciating so punishing so unbearable that all you can do in response is to nash your teeth back before the days of anesthesia and epidurals when somebody maybe needed to get a limb removed or when a woman would go into labor they would often be given a a stick to put in their mouth to bite down on so that when the pain came it wouldn’t cause them to bite down so hard as to bite off their own tongue that’s the kind of pain in view here teeth nashing pain the Bible uses a great deal of imagery to describe some of the sources of this pain let’s just look at a few of them the first image is that of being eaten by worms or maggots I don’t know about you but there’s very few things more revolting to me than the thought of worms crawling all over my body eating me we find this worm mentioned in in many places but let’s turn to ma to Mark 9 Mark 9:47 let’s look at that one Mark 9 verse 47 this is just one of many places it’s talked about verse 4748 it says this if your eye causes you to stumble throw it out it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than having two eyes be cast into hell where their what worm does not die you should rather rip out your eye than be in Hell however horrible that is however painful that will be it’s better than having to end endure the horrors of hell I want you to notice a little something a little subtle going on in this verse back in the verse it says where the well Jesus doesn’t say where the worm doesn’t die right what is that word where their worm doesn’t die their worm you see it’s a worm especially a son mind to torment you this is graphic imagery about a personalized enduring unending physical punishment and this worm is to be understood in the greater context of a another image that the Bible uses to describe hell and that’s the idea of gehenna gehenna was a place in that time outside the city of Jerusalem and it was here that we read in 2 Kings 23 that the ancient Kings of Judah who were worshiping Idols it was there that they would sacrifice human children to the idol mik they were doing human sacrifices there and this was so revulsive to God that he cursed the place and in Jesus day this place is what became a city dump a place where the city’s garbage is taken waste was taken and the corpses were taken to be burned and that’s what the Bible is likening to Hell a cursed Wasteland of refuge and garbage and corpses where maggots are eating everything and Fire Burns Burns continually it’s why back in our verse in MA in Mark 9:48 it’s it says after the worm does not die and what the fire is not quenched that’s the second source of pain that we see and that is fire as you know fire is pervasively associated with hell throughout the Bible we’ve heard previous verses of Jesus speaking of a furnace of fire Jesus speaks of the fiery hell in Matthew 5:22 and 189 and Revelation 20 speaks of a lake of fire and brimstone into which you will be thrown you drown in that Lake and the Hellfire gets into your eyes and your lungs and your nose and your throat and it burns you not only from the outside but from the inside out and if you are in our summer Sunday school series you you’ve heard of a few reformers who were burned at the stake for their faith burned alive I’d be hardpressed to think of many more painful ways to die than to be burned at the stake I’ve burned my finger before I’ve burned my tongue before and that pain was a excruciating enough but now imagine that whole pain over your whole body it is still far better to burn at the stake than to burn in hell because at the stake the fire eventually will what it will be quenched it will burn out but in hell the fire burns eternally I I want to look at one last passage with you about this fire and that’ll hopefully drive this point home let’s turn to Luke chapter 16 Luke chapter 16 verse 19 Luke 16 this is another parable of Jesus a a story that Jesus is telling the story of course itself is fiction but in telling it Jesus tells us a lot about the afterlife the story features two men a one man is rich incredibly rich but in this life he rejected Jesus and the other man is a poor man very poor by the name of Lazarus Lazarus is destitute but in this life he has believed Jesus and has saving Faith let’s pick up in verse 19 in this story verse 19 now there was a rich man and he habitually dressed in purple and fine linen joyfully joyously living in splendor every day and a poor man named Lazarus was laid at his gate covered with sores and longing to be fed with the crumbs which were falling from the rich man’s table besides even the dogs were coming and licking his sores now the poor man died and was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom and the rich man also died and was buried now where does the rich man find himself verse 23 in Hades that’s another name for hell he found himself in Hell see it didn’t matter how rich this man was how powerful how much he had it together in this life all that matters was what he did with the message of Jesus and back in verse 23 he lifted up his eyes being a what torment and saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom and he cried out and said Father Abraham have mercy on me and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue for I am in what Agony in display listen to what this rich man is asking he is thirsty so thirsty and he’s just asking for someone to dip dip the tip of his finger in water and just to place it on his tongue not his whole body he’s not asking for that he’s just asking for the tip of his tongue just a little bit of relief and the answer is no no verse 25 Abraham said child remember that during your life you have received good things and likewise Lazarus bad things but now he is comforted here and you are are in agony and besides all this between us and you there is a great Chasm fixed so that those who wish to come from here to you will not be able and that none may cross over from there to us it is final you are in hell and that is it no more chances and the answer to have can I have just a little bit of Mercy a little drop of water is no no you may not have even the tiniest bit of relief for your suffering my friends I have to admit this deeply disturbs me remember this is Jesus telling the story sweet Jesus loving Jesus compassionate Jesus Remember gives sight to the blind feeds the hungry weeps over the death of his friend weeps over Israel this is Jesus he is the one telling the story in Hell there will be no mercy no relief from the Relentless and the Eternal Flame and that brings us to our last heart horror of Hell we’ve looked at the horror of Darkness we’ve looked at the horror of Sorrow we’ve seen the horror of pain and our last horror is the horror of Eternity eternity Darkness Darkness sorrow pain Are All Made infinitely worse by the sorrow of Eternity it’ll last for eternity and I have to tell you this is the one that is the most difficult for us to accept in fact there are many who because they are not able to accept this horror have veered into great error you’ll find many people it’s too horrible my friends the Bible tells us that this suffering will never ever end the suffering will so horrible that you will wish you could die wish you could Fade Into Oblivion but that will never happen there will be no end to your suffering compounding all of that suffering is then the knowledge that you will never have any relief coming none not only that there will be no breaks Revelation 20110 tells us that it will be torment day and night what forever and ever day and night forever and ever Bible saying that not me there is no sleep there is no rest from this torment there were no breaks you may still ask oh are you sure it means Eternal maybe it just means a long time I just want to show you another verse let’s look in let’s turn to Matthew 25 Matthew 25 verse 46 I want to show it to you from the Bible Matthew 25 verse 46 verse 46 reads this verse 46 these speaking of false converts in this verse will go away into what Eternal punishment but the righteousness sorry the righteous into what eternal life I couldn’t be clearer Jesus is speaking of both Eternal punishment and eternal life what does that mean that means that the eternalness of punishment will be the same as the eternalness of life you want heaven to be Eternal you want that to be eternal hell will also be Eternal it’s the same Eternal here there’s no difference in Hell the worm will not die the fire will not be quenched the worm will eat you but listen you will never be fully consumed the fire will will burn you but you will will never be completely burned up you say how will that work well in Hell God will create a new body for you that will be created specifically for this type of punishment to withstand the full Fury of God’s Wrath for all eternity in this body you may have eyes but they will be designed not so that you can behold the beauty of God’s creation but so that you can weep forever in darkness in this new body you may have skin and it will be designed not so that you can feel the comfort of another person’s touch but so that you can burn and be eaten by worms forever and this this new body you may still have teeth not so that you can enjoy food but so that you can Nash them in pain for all eternity in this body you may have a voice not so that you can communicate with anybody or to scream for Mercy but so that you can whail in pain but that’s not the worst part of any of that understand this and here’s the worst part is that in hell you will still remain a sinner you will still be sinning you will continue to sin in hell for all eternity in fact you’ll be sinning worse than you are now because in this life God’s restraining hand is on on you and there are checks and balances to your sin but in the darkness of hell where God has left your sin is gone sorry your restrained is gone and you are going to be free to sin to full force of your sinfulness for all eternity see remember repentance the Bible says is a gift of God repentance is a gift of God and that gift will be inaccessible to you in hell that means you will sin more than ever you will hate God more than ever see hell the purpose of hell is not to reform you it’s not to make you better in any way that’s not his purpose the purpose of hell is one thing and one thing only and that is to punish so don’t get it wrong in your head hell is not filled with penitent people people who wish they could go to God people who are sorry in any way for their sin it is it is filled with people who hate God with avengeance continually from the time they get there to all eternity and when baking in the Flames of hell if you gave them a choice they would choose to stay there rather than repent and be with God and every minute you are tormented in hell you will shake your fist at God in rebellion and rage ever more profoundly and as you do The Ledger of your sins will grow the guilt of your sin will increase and the punishment do your sin will increase as well forever and ever so we’ve seen this morning the four Horrors that we can expect to meet in Hell Darkness sorrow pain and Eternity hell is a place of Darkness where the worm does not die where the fire is not quenched it is a place of weeping and of nashing of teeth where there is unquenchable thirst but never a drop of Mercy where torments are endless day and night forever what a horrible horrible picture of hell that the scripture tells us this is what breaks my heart Christ tells us that most people in the this world even the vast majority of the people in this world will find themselves in Hell Jesus says this plainly in Matthew 7:13 I’ll read it to you Matthew 7 13 says this the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to what destruction and there are few or many many who enter it for the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life and there are what few who find it friends most of the people in this world that you see are taking the wide gate to hell maybe some of us even in this church in a church of this size is very likely that some of you will wake up in hell and that’s too horrible to think about I just want to close you with this Christian have you become numb to the idea of hell have you forgotten the stakes if you have any compassion at all you can’t keep silent you must tell those around you you must warn them of the horrors to come you must tell them to be reconciled to God while there’s still time that Jesus came so that you would never have to suffer in the Flames of hell hell is almost right upon us but God has made a way of of Escape for you oh but look the door is closing fast and soon it will forever never be shut don’t delay repent and believe the gospel let’s pray father we don’t enjoy this type of sermon none of us want to hear about the horrible things you have in store for those who reject you in hell and Lord as we as we listen to the to your word we’re filled with a grief because we don’t want this to happen to those we love even to those we don’t love that we should Lord we don’t want this to happen to anyone and Lord you have sent us with the mission of warning the people in this world help us Lord to be faithful to that as a church a beacon of light so that people can hear the message and be saved from the darkness to come in Christ’s name we pray amen and by the way if you have any questions about what you’ve heard or if you want to know more about how to escape hell you can talk to me after the service you can talk to khif will’ll probably be up here anyways and and we’ll be thrilled to talk to you and answer any questions you might have please it’s so important and we don’t want anybody to leave today without settling the question of your Eternal fate
