An Honest Look at Hell
from Sunday Mornings | The HavenCC Hosted by HavenCC AV
What Does the Bible Actually Say About Hell? Scott's back from sabbatical - and he saved this one for his return on purpose. In this thorough, careful, and surprisingly pastoral message, we dig into one of the most avoided topics in all of preaching: hell. Not with a megaphone and a sign, and not by tiptoeing around it either. Starting with a close look at the four different words the Bible uses for hell - Sheol, Hades, Gehenna, and Tartarus - we work through what each one actually means and why conflating them has caused so much confusion. Then we walk through the three main ways Christians have historically interpreted the doctrine of hell, examine the strongest scriptural case for each, and land somewhere honest: judgment is real, God takes no pleasure in it, and the gospel is the most brilliant and generous response to our problem that anyone could have imagined.Study Guide: https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/139ip7oXMB3KtpJ5e7VKGZVC5qV6ybgWXNXKqNtSY_MM/Scripture References: Matthew 16:18 | Matthew 25:46 | Mark 9:48 | Luke 16 | John 3:16 | Romans 6:23 | 2 Peter 2:4 | Revelation 14:11 | Revelation 20:10 | Colossians 1:19-20 | 1 Corinthians 15:28 | Ezekiel 33:11 | Isaiah 55:6-7 | Jeremiah 7:31-32
