 This morning I'd like to preach on a sobering and a rather serious topic but one that is so necessary to every individual listening this morning and that is about the reality of a place called hell. A place with literal fire and literal torment. Many scoff at the notion of this place and they relegate its existence to fairy tales and myths and legends. Many individuals foolishly mock the idea of hell by using it as a curse word or a punchline in a joke.
