SEVEN REASONS I DON'T WANT SINNERS TO GO TO HELL

Mark 9:43-48

Intro:   This is a subject that many things could be said about. Surely no one wants to see any one die in their sins and spend eternity in Hell. Yet this is what the Bible teaches will happen to all those who die unsaved...

 

I.  THE PLAN OF GOD IN PREPARING HELL...

                  Matt. 25:41  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:

                  I Tim. 2:4  Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge 

                  of the truth.

                  Isa. 14:9  Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth 

                  up the  dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their 
                  thrones all the kings of the nations.         

                  II Peter 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count  

                 slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that 

                 all should come to repentance.

II.  THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE THERE...

All the sinners of all the ages.

Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

1 Cor. 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

1 Cor 6:10  Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Cor 6:11  And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Rev. 21:8 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.

All the drunkards, dope addicts, prostitutes, murderers, rapist, thieves, etc.

 

III. THE PUNISHMENT THAT WILL BE THERE... Luke 16:19-31

A.   Notice what the rich man saw..   Luke 16:23  And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

The reality of the place, the punishment

B.   Notice what the rich man said...

He prayed for: 

a.    Mercy... Luke 16:24  And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me,

and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

b.  Water… v 24

c.  His family... Luke 16:27  Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

Luke 16:28  For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

 

C.    Notice what the rich man suffered...

Physically, the flames tormented him.

Mentally, his memory tormented him.

Hopelessly, the gulf tormented him.

 

IV.  THE PRECIOUS THINGS THAT WILL BE MISSING...

    A.  No Christians       D.    No Compassion

    B.  No Churches        E.    No Comfort

    C.  No Children          F.    No Cool water

 

V.    THE PERIOD OF THE LIFE SPAN IN HELL...

Mark 9:44, 46, 48; Rev. 14:1011 Thess. 1:6-7

 

VI.  THE PRICE THAT WAS PAID TO KEEP US OUT... Rom. 5:6-8  Heb. 2:9

1 Cor 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1 Cor 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

 I Peter 2:24  Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

 II Cor. 5:21    For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

 Isa. 53:6   All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

 II Cor. 8:9    For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

John 3:16  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.

 

VII.  THE PLAN THAT'S SO SIMPLE...

A.    Realize you are a sinner...

Rom. 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Gal. 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

B.    Realize the wages of sin... 

Rom. 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

C.    Receive Jesus Christ with repentance and faith.
