Awful . ( Isaiah 53 )

Hell is not a subject preached on in many pulpits, even though it is clearly taught in the Bible,for many it is to awful and unthinkable,that such a thing should be. So it is ignored and many are relieved ,but let me make it very clear,it exist,ignoring it will not change anything, that is a fact. Why is there such a doctrine in Gods word? ,one could say the thought of hell is awful, to awful to contemplate .Yes it is awful but sin is awful ,and of course many seek to ignore that reality,God does not ignore sin,In order to save humanity,he devised a plan that for him was awful ,but it was the only answer . .Look on the cross see a figure who had been nearly flogged to death,whose bones were protruding ,in Isaiah 52 v 3 ,we read a description of his physical suffering, 'Many were appalled at him, his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness'. yes it was truly awful ,we will continue this next time.
