Luke-The Investigative Gospel
What If Hell Is Real
Luke 16:19-31

Your not believing in Hell don’t lower the temperature there one degree.

I. THE COMPARISON BEFORE DEATH

The rich man could have easily assisted Lazarus, but he ignored him and went on enjoying his recognition and his riches.

II. THE COMPARISON AFTER DEATH

The revelation of where each man ended up after death would have astonished Jesus’ original audience and shattered their long held assumptions about wealth being a sign of Gods’ favor and blessings.

III. THE CORRECTION OF MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT HELL

Misconception #1

Hell is nothingness we will just sees to exist, hearing, seeing and feeling nothing.

Misconception #2

Not realizing that the choices we make in this life fix our destiny in the next.

Misconception #3

After I spend some time in Hell I will be able to get out.

Misconception #4

Hell won’t be so bad, I’ll be there with my buddies.

Once we have that matter established in our own lives then we must think of others.
