verse of the day

Consigned to . ( Revelation 20 v 11 - 15 )

Following on from yesterday were we declared how Christ bore the wrath of God on the cross,why?. Let me shift our thoughts to humanity ,we are told that in our unsaved we were by nature deserving of wrath.(Ephesians 2 v 3 ), and that God's wrath remains on us,because we have not accepted Christ as our Saviour.If you re not a Christian at this moment in time you are under the wrath of God ,because of your sinful state. That is here and now you are considered ungodly, and an enemy of God ( Romans 5 v 6 / 10 ),what does that mean?,it means if we die in that state we will be judged ( Hebrews 9 v 27 / Matthew 5 v 27 -  30). In Revelation 14 v 10 - 11 we read of those experiencing the cup of Gods wrath,and the torment that follows.It is all very awful, Bruce Milne writes,'Hell is terrible by any measure and as Jesus indicates ,everything is worth sacrificing in order to avoid it.There is no more terrible prospect conceivable than of being consigned to hell'.
