Just What in Hell do you Want?!

Just what in hell do you want? Think about it. Here are some words that
refer to hell. The Pit, the place of Eternal Damnation, the Lake of Fire,
Hades, the place of Eternal Darkness, the place of the Ever Consuming Fire,
the place of Eternal Torment and the place of Eternal Separation from God.
There are many more. I don't know about you, but none of those descriptions
sound appealing to me.

We hear people very casually talking about how they and their friends are
going to "party" in hell. And while here on earth, we see bumper stickers
that state "He who dies with the most toys wins!". How sad. How misled.
How misinformed they are.

We are always laughing off punishment from God. Because we cannot see Him,
some feel that there is the outside chance that He does not exist. Or we
picture this jolly old St. Nick type figure sitting on a cloud, with a white
beard and flowing white robes who is so jolly, He is pictured in stature as
something close to an idiot in though process and He would not hurt a fly
because He is a God of Love. He is a God of love, but make no mistake...as
perfect as His love is, so is His wrath! We don't have to ever worry about
"toys" and things that we desire here on earth. After all Jesus came that
we may have life and have it more abundantly. All we have to do is to seek
God and His righteousness above all else, and everything else will be given
to us.(Matthew 6:3 KJV) But know this. The devil is not your friend. He
loathes you with a hate so deep that your human mind cannot even comprehend
this type of hatred. That is why we are always pulled into his snares. He
hates who you are, what you are, especially in Christ, and he wants you
stripped of everything you have here and in eternity. (John 10:10 NKJV)

We are all so blind when it comes to the pure evil of the enemy. If you
were being held at gun point by some lunatic who was trembling in anger and
hatred and could pull the trigger at any minute just to have the fun of
seeing you die, you would perhaps come close to the devils feelings toward
you. You also know that something like this happening to you would make you
seek God with everything you could muster in that moment. While we are here
on earth, we literally face this moment in the spiritual realm everyday of
our lives. We need to put on the full armor of God every day (Ephesians 6:
11-12 NKJV) and to stay close to our big brother, Jesus Christ. For it is
His precious shed blood that forms a hedge of protection around us every
day, keeping the enemy at bay day by day.

You have heard of people having near death experiences and having been
transported to heaven. It is all peace and light and joy for anyone who
dies whether they believe in God or not or have led a good life or not. I
personally think that this is a trick of the enemy as well. Stories like
this lure everyone into a false sense of security that all that awaits us
after death is peace, love and light. NOT SO!! I have also listened to
true men of God tell of how God has allowed them to visit Hell in the spirit
realm and what they reported horrified me. One minister reported that your
worse fears and phobias are realized in Hell. They will never end. I
personally am extremely claustrophobic. I was put into an MRI machine once
and totally freaked. I was almost a basket case in the time that it took
them to get me out. I dwelled on the thought of being in a tight box that
enclose me within an inch of me all over. The thought was so horrifying
that it made me physically jump to my feet. What are your worst fears? Add
to that a fire that will not be quenched in your body, and you might be able
to brush Hell with your mind. One thing is for sure, I AM NO GOING TO HELL!
There is nothing in Hell that I want! And in case you are considering
suicide because you think you can punish and get back at those who hurt you,
there is something that you must know. You might be able to cause pain for
others while they are here, but after they die, and they go to heaven, know
that they will not remember you. There will be no tears in heaven. You
however will remember them for all eternity.

SO WHAT IN HELL DO YOU WANT?!........Patti
