Prophet» Column Hell; A Living Reality” suujcvi u uus ume is "Hell, A Living Reality.’’ There are two individuals who know there la a Hall: a bomagain believer, and an awakened sinner. When I —was growing up as a buy tir the religious world, there were those who tried to overthrow my faith in what the Bible said about Hell. Tbe late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the late con gressman, Adam Clayton Powell, were among a group who preached dur ing the early sixties; “If there is a Hell, it is hare on earth.’’Now, Mr. lOng and Mr. Powell were greet leaders among our people, and they skipped, hopped and Jumped all around the country leading demon —strations. But Qod doesn't call a man to lend a de monstration or misrepre sent Him. No! Any Individual who denies tbe reality of Hall as set forth in tbe Word of God is calling God a Bar, and my heavenly Father did not call you! Now, I’m cutting across the grain of many, but I know what I’m talking about. It was, also, durfag^ttoaeyMr^to the subject of Hell came qp there in tbe classroom at Deep Creek High School. I made the statement that HeO was a place of fire. Tbe school teacher an swered hack, like this: “You show me in tfas Bible where Hell means Ore; preachers don’t preach she’D know thaw to w Hell because she is going there just m straight as a martin taUa gourd. The Bible is the abao lute, eternal, unbroken and verbally inspired Word of ^LlnHlsWor<(^tdls inhabitants. Also He tells us about Hell and its in habitants. If you deny Hell, _yeull bra-Ip dnay Hmk ven. The same God created them both. Only a fool would deity the reality sf HeO. In Pa. t:l7, God ds daros: “Tim wicked shall be turned into Hell, and all the nations that forget God.” As a whole, every nation on the face of this earth has forgotten God, or turned Ha back on God. There is a small remnant saved in some nations. Russia Is anti-God, and England and America are anti-Christ. In^ Amolca religionisms have a religi ous covering, butnoaasww, anct or solid found dation. Ov church mas hers know nothing about deliverance from the guilt and power and penally gf sin. You know absolutely nothing about being deliv ered from the of Satan into the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ. You First In series live the same lives you tived before you came into the church. The world sees that you don’t have a thing they don’t have, but a leas than thin veneer at reli gion. I’m not being criti cal, Just stating facts. Some young fool will speak up: “Weil, where is Hell?” You’ll find the an swer right here in the Word at God. Korah and Da than rebelled against Moaes, (in reality, fF was rebellion against God) and we have their fate made Just as plain as a noon day July sun. “And Moses, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD h^th sen! me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.” If these men (Ko rah and Da than) die the or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, then the LORO hath not sent me. But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, AND THEY GO DOWN QUICK (ALIVE) UNTO THE PIT: then ye shall understand that these men -have provoked the’ LORD: And it came to pass, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them: and the earth opened her mouth, _ _ AUTO Min Come By And See Us. — -We Bay'Soli and Trade Cars I 1973 Oldsmobile Cutlass Sharp i---.HMPwn 1975 Ford Torino Auto, air cond. _>300 Down 1974 Dodge Dart 6 cyi., Excellent on gas ---figPggP. . 1979Vega-;—-— Excel, cond. • _>750-j 1973 Toyota ■. < Auto., air cond. • ■__ $995.00 1974 Cadillac Excellent condition • _>650.00 Do wilt 1971 camaro ■ ■—K*<%UeAtc5tid. _ >1.995 Your Credit Is OK at <0—OTAWOMm _No Finance Charge F 37MWHUnson Boulevard - - Charlotte, North Carolina 28208 392-8438 r >4 ^ won H Depending on engine and body style, we can now deliver a Vblvo to you m more vwiys than ever.

Yon can deny Hall all you want to, your in fidelity won’t keep you out of Hell. No soul has ever entered Heaven calling God a liar and neither will you.

It evidences that not only are you not saved, you have never been awakened under the convicting power of the' Holy Spirit, (Jn. 16:7-11). Every awakened sinner knows there is a Hell, and fe knows that if he doesn’t jetto Christ be willspeod eternity in Hell. 52 Weeks of Exciting News & Advertising The — Charlotte Post 376-0496 Affordable used cars I 7 • I Pete You cm afford an affordable aaed car” . .
