The document argues that hell is a real and eternal place of suffering, supported by various biblical references. It contrasts false views of hell, such as annihilationism and the belief that it is merely a warning from God, with the biblical teaching of its permanence and the importance of avoiding it. To escape hell and attain heaven, individuals are encouraged to submit to God and follow His teachings.

2. 3 False Views of Hell Only a “warning.” God just uses “hell” to scare us. Hell isn’t as bad as it’s described in the Bible; it’s just not as good as heaven. It only lasts a while; not eternally (annihilationism).

3. Hell is REAL

4. Hell is REAL Psalm 9:17, “…shall be turned into hell.” Proverbs 15:24, “The way of life winds upward for the wise, that he may turn away from hell below.” (If hell isn’t real, why try to avoid it?) Matthew 5:29, Jesus said some would be “cast into hell.” Second Peter 2:4, “For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment.” David, Solomon, Jesus and Peter (and others) all taught that hell is real.

9. It Wasn’t Prepared for You! Matthew 25:41 Jesus is preparing a room (mansion) in heaven!

10. Regret Sad Memories Luke 16:25

11. Worst of all, God will not be there.

12. Hell is Eternal Matthew 18:8, “everlasting fire” Matthew 25:41, “everlasting fire” Matthew 25:46, “everlasting punishment” Second Thessalonians 1:9, “everlasting destruction” Jude 6, “everlasting chains” Hell is Eternal

13. Who Will Be There? Those who “do not know God.” Importance of the Great Commission Those “who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.” We cannot “be our own boss.” Includes those who are unfaithful Christians

14. How Do I Avoid Hell and, Instead, Gain Heaven? Draw nearer to the One in Heaven Avoid the one in Hell “ Submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you” (James 4:7-8).
