02/20/12 AN EMPTY VICTORY

02/20/12 AN EMPTY VICTORY

AND THE WINNER IS...
The nominations are all in and the final candidate has been chosen. They come to the competition with votes of confidence from friends and loved ones. It is not their looks, or talent or intelligence or social accomplishments, but their winsome personalities that put them in line to be crowned as the warmest, happiest, most exciting, friendliest person to ever go to hell.

A LOSER!
Remember, it is not what others think of us that matters, it is whether we are saved from sin by the blood of Jesus. Pride robs the sinner of the real crowns of value and there is no joy in hell.

A LOST LOVED ONE
I had a relative who thought he would shock me by boldly saying he wanted to go to hell because all his friends would be there. I told him that when he found himself in hell he would not be laughing. His love of sin and pride would take him to eternal judgment, regardless of his otherwise positive traits.

Upward and Onward in Jesus,
Pastor David L. Gould
