From Gary... Your last chance is... FEAR











What motivates people to do the things they do? Sin is easy to, has terrible consequences and can be difficult to overcome. And when it goes beyond the mere habitual state to a hardening of permanence, then only the severest of measures must be taken to be made right with God. FEAR IS THAT MEASURE. Not that which frightens little children, but a fear accompanied by intellectual comprehension of what will really happen if one refuses to submit to God.  And if the FEAR of Gehenna (the burning HELL) is what it takes, then I suppose that FEAR can actually be a good thing.  The above images are terrifying and may or may not depict what WILL BE THERE, but Jesus has repeated described it, so just listen to HIM!!!
Matthew, Chapter 5 (WEB)
22  But I tell you, that everyone who is angry with his brother without a cause  shall be in danger of the judgment; and whoever shall say to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council; and whoever shall say, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of the fire of Gehenna. 
 
29  If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.


Matthew, Chapter 10
 28  Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

Matthew, Chapter 23
29  “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and decorate the tombs of the righteous,    
30 and say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we wouldn’t have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.’    
31 Therefore you testify to yourselves that you are children of those who killed the prophets.    
32  Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers.   
33  You serpents, you offspring of vipers, how will you escape the judgment of Gehenna?

Mark, Chapter 9
Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he were thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.    
43  If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire,    
44  ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’    
45  If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched—   
46  ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’    
47 If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire, 

I can't live your life for you, I don't pay your bills or pick up your kids from school. I probably won't ever meet most of you in order to encourage you to avoid Gehenna, but if I but point you to Jesus and let HIM tell you, maybe, just maybe you will listen to HIM and decide this very day to follow God instead of your own ideas of how to live this life.  Be afraid, be very, very afraid- (IF YOU WILL NOT LISTEN) because if God is not your father, then the Devil is your Daddy. And I don't think you will like his home!!!!

Please, please - listen to Jesus!!! Do everything you can to avoid the HELL OF FIRE (GEHENNA)!!! Choose Heaven- BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!
