Why You Shouldn't Wait To See Hell Fire First Before You Believe That It Exists
Because to see hell fire, you might have to be inside hell fire first, and by then it might already be too late for you to be able to do anything about it even though you now believe it exists. So your believing that hell fire exists after you've seen it with very own your eyes would not be of any use to you, just as it was with the rich man in the instance of Lazarus who couldn't use it to do anything about his own stay there. Hence his request that those who were yet alive on Earth be reached with the message of hell's existence by someone who had seen hell fire after death but wasn't in hell like Lazarus, who didn't wait to see it first before he believed, so that they wouldn't have to go to that place of torment. Luke 16:23-28 (KJV) And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. That request of the rich man in hell fire has been granted by God on several occasions, as He's sent many people like Lazarus to testify of hell fire's existence to those alive on Earth who've never been there before, so that they wouldn't have to also go there as the rich man just because they didn't know that it existed. But if despite the warnings of all these people that God had sent from the dead to testify of hell fire's existence, you still end up in hell fire as the rich man because you wanted to see hell fire first before you believed in its existence, you wouldn't have anyone else to blame but yourself, because the same testimony of hell fire you wasted, was that which the rich man in hell fire wished he had to prevent him from getting there. God bless. |
