When you think of the term “scum of the Earth” what comes to mind? Have you ever wondered who hell is reserved for? Or, have you ever wondered; where the “scum of the Earth” will spend their eternity?
Let’s talk about it!
Hell and who will be there
One of the greatest preachers of the twentieth century once offered a very friendly reminder to those in the audience. His reminder was:
“Go to hell and live with all of the scum of the earth. If you like to drink go with the drinkers; if you like to lust go with the prostitutes.”
Leonard Ravenhill
Harsh words from a preacher right, wrong!
Though hell was created for the devil and his angels:
"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41 KJV)
Many souls will find themselves spending their eternity alongside the devil and his angels.
But, what kind of souls will be there?
In ATTENDANCE
That place of eternal torment will CONTAIN all of the murderers, child abusers, sexual abusers, serial killers of ALL of the AGES. In attendance will be all of the adulterers, fornicators and drunkards of ALL of the AGES:
"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV)
Not only them BUT all of the fearful, the liars, all of the abominable of ALL of the AGES. Each will have a spot reserved for them in the flames!
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." (Revelation 21:8 KJV)
As our precious brother Paul says; do not be deceived. Heaven will not WELCOME any of the above!
How is this a choice?
Running through the list of those who will be in attendance; I am sorry but I do not understand how JESUS CHRIST is not a CHOICE. Who would choose to spend their eternity alongside individuals that they would not even allow in the same room with them, on earth.
Let’s just take the serial killer!
One hundred percent of the time; one hundred percent of people will do everything in their power to rid themselves of a serial killer. BUT, that same person will live their life in a way that will lead them to spending their eternity alongside that serial killer.
As we see from our Lord’s Word; you do not have to be a serial killer to go to hell. All you have to do is NOT know Jesus Christ as Lord.
If you are..
If you are here today and you are any of the above; know that you will not inherit the kingdom of Heaven. Just as hell is reserved for the devil and his followers; Heaven is reserved for Christ and His followers!! You can ONLY belong to ONE.
Repent, confess and believe in the Lord Jesus. As our precious brother Paul says:
"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:9-10 KJV)
Christ is eternal life and He has the keys of death and hell. An eternity without Christ means an eternity of torment spent among the scum from the earth!
How is the choice not Christ!!!
