    Saved From Hell

     | 5,281 views

    Many pastors do not want to preach on HELL fearing they’ll not appear relevant. It’s pressure from the culture to not speak anything negative. Apparently we have begun to deny hell. There’s an assumption that everybody’s going to make it to heaven somehow

    Opening illustration: Video of ‘HELL’ from center of the earth. Introduction: Many pastors do shy away from the topic of everlasting damnation. "It’s out of fear they’ll not appear relevant.

    Those who embrace this message will be inspired to pursue a deeper relationship with God. Understanding that God's power is not limited to inside the church. Many people often follow pastors instead of seeking God's presence, leading to a greater power outside the church than inside.

    Trans-Generational Value

    Though necessary, I often find it hard to preach sermons to the women of our church in relation to their role as wives and mothers. Paul had a better idea. Much of such preaching could be done without the pastor. The aged women were to teach the younger!

    What does the Bible say about election and how does it relate to the love of God? In this message, Pastor Steve will show how this most hated doctrine is one in which all Christian must embrace.

Throughout the ages this teaching has been debated and considered a doctrine of hate rather than a doctrine of love but the Scriptures say otherwise. Consider ...read more
