Nature of Hell According to Jesus
- Hell is the absence of Jesus Christ but presence of God's righteous wrath.
- It involves eternal conscious torment, a reality Jesus explicitly taught and symbolized with undying worms and unquenchable fire.
Hell Affirming God's Justice
- Hell affirms God's justice rather than being a problem itself.
- Without hell, earthly injustices compel us to seek personal vengeance instead of trusting God's future justice.
Hell Omitted in Modern Missions
- Modern Christian mission literature often omits hell, reflecting cultural underemphasis.
- This omission risks diminishing the full gospel message and evangelistic urgency.
