verse of the day

He could do no more. ( John 3 v 16 )

Selwyn Hughes ,wrote,'Increasing numbers of ministers and teachers in today's Church are claiming that the idea of Gods wrath is incompatible with His love', The doctrine of  hell is  awesome and a very serious thing ,it is not a thing to be spoken of lightly,but it is not to be denied . Consider these words spoken by Jesus, yes spoken by Jesus, ' Be afraid of the One who can destroy  both soul and and body in hell'. In Revelation 6 v 16 ,we read,'They call to the mountains and the rocks,Fall on us and hide us from.....the wrath of the Lamb'.This wrath  we read of, is future,but even now we are told in John 3 v 36, 'Whoever ever believes in the Son has  eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them'.Leon Morris writes, 'that there are literally  hundreds of passages in the Bible referring to God's wrath, and the rejection of them all leaves us with a mutilated Bible'.This doctrine is not something that should be ignored,or to expect it to fade away with the passage of time.God who is love, in love did all He could. to save us from the consequences of our sins. (Read John 3 v 16).
