GOD IS JUST

The Bible tells us that hell will be a terrible place. It will be filled with anguish and pain beyond any human's comprehension. Jesus told his disciples that "The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth." (Matthew 13:41-42).

What happens to a person without Christ after death? They will go to hell. "But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him"(Luke 12:5)

What cleanses us from all sin? The shed blood of Jesus Christ. When John the Baptist first saw Jesus he proclaimed, ". . .Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world" (John 1:29). Jesus Christ was the final and ultimate sacrifice. The blood from His sacrifice doesn't cover our sin, it totally cleanses us of our sin. "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin" (1 John 1:7)

Is there any other payment for sin? No. "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood there is no remission" (Hebrew 9:22).

Is there anything a person can do to pay for sin? No. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Why did Jesus give His life? Because of His love for people." For God sent not his Son into the World to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved" (John 3:17).
