What A Relief

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Mar 16, 2009

There is an old saying that says, “A loving God wouldn’t send anyone to hell.” That is a true statement. But what we forget is that God does not send us to hell - - we send ourselves. Audio will be at www.sermonlist.com

As humans, we tend to take the truth of God and wrap it around what we are comfortable with, thereby ending up with a comfortable untruth.
