Today, many people in churches avoid talking about hell, or they argue about whether it even exists. Some claim the Bible’s words about hell are just symbolic, not meant to be taken literally. But Scripture gives clear warnings, and one important example comes from Matthew 25:41, where Jesus says, “Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.”
This verse directly shows that hell is not a temporary place or a one-time event where souls simply vanish. The word “eternal” here means it lasts forever. Some people suggest the wicked will be destroyed in a single moment and cease to exist, but Jesus taught otherwise. He described hell as a fire that never dies out and a punishment without end.
It’s also important to realise that Jesus spoke about hell more than anyone else in the Bible, making it clear that it is a real, eternal consequence for rejecting God.
These people will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,
