2 | ...Hell. | John 3:36 | DocTrinsograce | 154951 | ||
Hi, Hope... I've heard that before, but I've never quite understood it. God is present everywhere, we cannot hide from Him. The Lord will be present in Hell for eternity, pouring out His unmeasurable Godly wrath for ever more. While this can be ghastly and abhorrent to some, it only tells me the depth and extent of my sin. I deserve that very judgment. Indeed, I would suffer it were it not for the glorious grace of Jesus Christ and the righteousness imputed to me by the Holy Spirit through faith. Think about this rhetorical question: For those who are saved, from _what_ are they saved? In Him, Doc "Go, my soul, to Calvary, and learn how holy God is, and what a monstrous thing sin is, and how imperiously, solemnly, and holily bound Jehovah is to punish it, either in the person of the sinner, or in the person of a Surety (Jesus)." --Octavius Winslow "A crime is more or less heinous, according as we are under greater or less obligations to the contrary.... So the faultiness of one being hating another, is in proportion to his obligation to love him.... And therefore if there be any being that we are under infinite obligations to love, and honor, and obey, the contrary to wards him must be infinitely faulty Our obligation to love, honor, and obey any being, is in proportion to his loveliness, honorableness, and authority; for that is the very meaning of the words. When we say anyone is very lovely, it is the same as to say, that he is one very much to be loved.... So that sin against God, being a violation of infinite obligations, must be a crime infinitely heinous, and so deserving infinite punishment." --Jonathan Edwards "The word gospel means good news. That which is preached as gospel in so many churches is not even news. A man has been found guilty, shall we say, of a heinous crime and has been sentenced to death. He is now in prison, awaiting the day of his execution. A friend comes to visit him. This friend calls out: 'I have good news for you!' Eagerly the condemned man asks: 'What is it?' The answer comes: 'Be good.' In that message there is not so much as a shred of good news. It is most cruel mockery. Yet many a self-styled minister of Christ holds forth to sinners under the sentence of eternal death a precisely equivalent message as gospel." --R. B. Kuiper "Alas! it is an infinite righteousness that must satisfy for our sins, for it is an infinite God that is offended by us. If ever your sin be pardoned, it is infinite mercy that must pardon it; if ever you be reconciled to God, it is infinite merit must do it; if ever your heart be changed, and your soul renewed, it is infinite power must effect it; and if ever your soul escape hell, and be saved at last, it is infinite grace must save it." --Matthew Mead |
