Precisely...what sane individual would choose hellfire over eternity in glory?!
Yet, man makes this choice every day when they willingly and willfully sin.
If we didn't have a choice in the matter, it wouldn't make sense...we would be nothing more than puppets, living any way we desired because it didn't matter...we'd make it in anyway.
Well, listen to the Word...
"Depart from me, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matt. 25:41).
"For the wages of sin is death" (
Rom. 6:23).
"This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire" (
Rev. 20:14, 15).
This is from
Truth Shall Triumph...
"Hell was never prepared for man. God made it for the devil and his followers. God has done everything He can to stop man from going to this dreadful place. The cross of Calvary is a roadblock, stopping man from his slide down into a lost eternity. Christ died to stop men and women from going there. If man wilfully chooses to be a follower of satan, he definitely will be with satan throughout eternity."
