    People feel "uncomfortable" about the topic of "Hell", but avoiding it will not change what Jesus taught about Hell; the Gospel frees people from the threat of Hell.

    “A Four-Letter Word and the Gospel” or “Hell and the Gospel” Matt. 18:1-9, 25:29-46 Recently someone told me that I talk too much about sin. IF I am guilty of that accusation, I can justify my actions: SIN is the reason for millions of people spending their eternities in ...read more
