HELL SERMON


GIVING HOPE TO HUMANITY
HELL SERMON
1 ¶ Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
1Th 5:6
6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Mt 24:31; 1Th 4:16
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Lu 12:35
8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. {gone out: or, going out}
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
Lu 13:25
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
Mt 7:21-23
12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Ps 5:5; Hab 1:13; Joh 9:31
13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
Mt 24:42,44; Mr 13:33,35; Lu 21:36; 1Co 16:13; 1Th 5:6; 1Pe 5:8; Re 16:15
14 ¶ For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
Mt 21:33; Lu 19:12
15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. {talents: a talent is one hundred and eighty seven pounds ten shillings}
Mt 18:24; Ro 12:6; 1Co 11:1-34; 12:7,11,29; Eph 4:11
16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Mt 24:47; 25:34,46; 28:20; Lu 12:44; 22:29-30; 2Ti 2:12; Heb 12:2; 1Pe 1:8
22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Mt 25:21
24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
Mt 13:12; Mr 4:25; Lu 8:18; 19:26; Joh 15:2
30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Mt 8:12; 24:51
31 ¶ When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
Zec 14:5; Mt 16:27; 19:28; Mr 8:38; Ac 1:11; 1Th 4:16; 2Th 1:7; Jude 1:14; Re 1:7
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
Eze 20:38; 34:17,20; Mt 13:49; Ro 14:10; 2Co 5:10; Re 20:12
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
 34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Mt 20:23; Mr 10:40; Ro 8:17; 1Co 2:9; Heb 11:16; 1Pe 1:4,9; 3:9; Re 21:7
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Isa 58:7; Eze 18:7; Heb 13:2,25; Jas 1:27; 3Jo 1:5
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
2Ti 1:16; Jas 2:15-16
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38  When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39  Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Pr 14:31; 19:17; Mt 10:42; Mr 9:41; Heb 6:10
41 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:
Ps 6:8; Mt 7:23,28; 13:40,42; Lu 13:27; 2Pe 2:4; Jude 1:6
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
Pr 14:31; 17:5; Zec 2:8; Ac 9:5
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
Da 12:2; Joh 5:9,29; Ro 2:7
 (KJV)



1 ¶ In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
Mt 16:6,12; Mr 8:15
2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
Mt 10:26; Mr 4:22; Lu 8:17
3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
Isa 51:7-8,12-13; Jer 1:8; Mt 10:28; Joh 15:14-15
5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
Mt 10:29
7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:
Mt 10:32; Mr 8:38; 2Ti 2:12; 1Jo 2:23
9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.
10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.
Mt 12:31-32; Mr 3:28; Joh 5:16
11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:
Mt 10:19; Mr 13:11; Lu 21:14
12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
13 ¶ And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
Joh 18:36
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
1Ti 6:7
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
Ec 11:9; 1Co 15:32; Jas 5:5
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? {thy...: Gr. do they require thy soul}
Job 20:22; 27:8; Ps 39:6; 52:7; Jer 17:11; Jas 4:14
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
Mt 6:20; Lu 12:33; 1Ti 6:18-19; Jas 2:5
22 ¶ And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.
Mt 6:25
23 The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.
24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?
Job 38:41; Ps 147:9
25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?
27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?
29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. {neither...: or, live not in careful suspense}
30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Mt 6:33
32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Mt 11:25-26
33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
Mt 6:20; 19:21; Lu 16:9; Ac 2:45; 4:34; 1Ti 6:19
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
Mt 25:1; Eph 6:14; 1Pe 1:13
36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
Mt 24:46
38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.
Mt 24:43; 1Th 5:2; 2Pe 3:10; Re 3:3; 16:15
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
Mt 24:44; 25:13; Mr 13:33; Lu 21:34,36; 1Th 5:6; 2Pe 3:12
41 ¶ Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
Mt 24:45; 25:21; 1Co 4:2
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
Mt 24:47; 28:20
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
Mt 24:48
46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. {cut...: or, cut him off}
Mt 24:51
47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
Nu 15:30; De 25:2; Joh 9:41; 15:22; Ac 17:30; Jas 4:17
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
Le 5:17; 1Ti 1:13
49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?
Lu 12:51
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! {straitened: or, pained}
Mt 20:22; Mr 10:38
51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
Mic 7:6; Mt 10:34; Lu 12:49; Joh 7:43; 9:16; 10:19
52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
Mt 10:35
53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
54 ¶ And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
Mt 16:2
55 And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56 Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
Ps 32:6; Pr 25:8; Isa 55:6; Mt 5:25
59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.
Mr 12:42
 (KJV)


HOLINESS

It is a mistake to suppose that God does not want us to be holy until death, for that would mean that He wants us to be unholy until death.  God does not want us to be unholy at any time.

What Christianity most needs in her antagonism with every form of unbelief, is holy living.

Real holiness has love for its essence, humility for its clothing, the good of others as its employment, and the honor of God as its end. -
Holiness does not consist in doing uncommon things, but in doing every thing with purity of heart.
It is a great deal better to live a holy life than to talk about it.  Lighthouses do not ring bells and fire cannon to call attention to their shining-they just shine.

The serene, silent beauty of a holy life is the most powerful influence in the world, next to the might of the Spirit of God.
Whoso lives the holiest life is fittest far to die.
I believe the holier a man becomes, the more he mourns over the unholiness that remains in him.
Holiness is the architectural plan upon which God builds up His living temple.
