    Q & A-THE END TIMES Based on a question in an email that I received. And then I gave my answer.

    The Bible shares with us two different fires - the Fire of the Holy Spirit and the Fire of Hell. This sermon shares four different ways they are both similar and yet vastly different. It is a way to use the metaphor of fire in a sermon on Pentecost.
