    Hindsight is 20/20, and if we would only listen to the spirit of God and do as we are lead to do. If we could hear the crying and gnashing of teeth, and the eternal torment of the souls in hell, surely Holiness-Fire would be in us.

    This morning I am going to speak to you about one of those things we all believe in but none of us likes to talk about – not my preaching, but the reality of hell.
