THE GATES OF HELL Chapter 4

I AM FOLLOWING HIS DIRECTION MANDATE AND GUIDANCE. The devil WILL NOT WIN not at all— THE GATES OF HELL Habakkuk 2:2King James Version (KJV) 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. BE BLESSED IN JESUS NAME It took me 14 years just to write 21 chapters as God directs—the word MUST GET OUT before the trumpet sounds. For YOUR BLESSING and perhaps someone will be touched---HE IS WAITING. Each page and word Copyrighted © 2014 Donna Schmier THE GATES OF HELL Chapter 4 Are YOU TRYING to scare me? Perfect love casts out fear Jude 1:6. King James Version (KJV) 6 And the angels, which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. I counter your question with a very important one, which you may have a problem with in answering. ARE YOU FEARFUL of the truth? (John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.) It is noted that a wise person will seek the truth and explore each meaning and Gandhi was asked the meaning of truth—the ‘fear’ you may be experiencing is not fear but conviction Saying one is fearful of the future, let’s consider what Dante said about fear in his poem Dante’s Inferno. I will not give much time in this explanation as this poem is FICTION but it does hold a very central truth-.Abandon hope all ye who enter here, above the gates of hell, although in a poem it is a central truth!! HELL HAS TORMENT (Luke 16:23-24) Hell also is the sulphur fire that never goes out—and YOU HAVE FEELING, you FEEL the flames. hear the tormented screams which are YOURS smell the stench of YOUR burning flesh that will never get relief—HELL is also PITCH BLACK Matthew 8:12.But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. NO sunlight will penetrate this darkness, which YOU have chosen by your rejection of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. In the allegory of Dante’s Inferno, in a fearful state and rightly so the expression ‘all who enter here lose all hope’ was above the door leading to hell—the abyss of flames, darkness never ending pain and torment. To lose any and all hope is a tragedy one need not suffer as long as there is breath—however the choice has been made and the actions fit the choice—hell eternally with their friends—I will briefly touch on a few of Dante’s statements not giving time to explore his mind only the writings. Fear is a natural and healthy process depending on what the fear consists of—and Dante’s fear was real and although an allegory you can see his reasons.(an allegory is: a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one. Thus Dante’s Inferno is fiction yet may contain some truths!!) The following is a snippet of a summary of Dante’s Inferno regarding his FEAR- ‘Dante fears danger but shows much courage: horrified by Hell, he nevertheless follows his guide, Virgil, through its gates. He also proves extremely emotional, as shown by his frequent fainting when he becomes overly frightened or moved. As the story progresses, Dante must learn to reconcile his sympathy for suffering with the harsh violence of God’s justice; the deeper he proceeds into Hell, the less the agonies of the damned affect him.’ A poet being moved by his own words and necessary explanations can relate to the masses he reached by his work. Fear has torment as we have seen by many various things: John 4:18. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. ONLY when we walk in the light of HIS divine love is fear cast out- Am I ‘trying to scare you’? My intention is to make every reader understand the seriousness of walking with the Master as opposed to following the steps of the deceiver the devil incarnate. To have no fear but live in this world ‘unafraid’ is like daring a rabid dog to tear you apart. The wonder of walking in HIS way is amazing and will bring you to your knees in repentance if you so chose—IT IS after all your choice—I have NEVER experienced a ‘I ain’t scared of anything’ person who didn’t meet a horrible end--.Saddam Hussein, Bin Laden, Adolph Hitler, and Goliath to name a few—They each have taken the path to hell and are burning eternally in sulfur fire in the total darkness hearing the screams of the other damned that chose to go to hell. Your choice ,you ARE a free agent by God’s grace!!!! Points to ponder: #1 How can you agree that fear and warning are the same? #2 Does your rejection of Jesus means you are NOT afraid. #3 Does calamity not strike fear in your heart. #4 If you could chose to avoid calamity would you are would you dismiss the warnings and go on your merry way? Father, Praise you for each reader who is looking for serous answers not ‘pie in the sky’ answers and who see YOUR hand in their lives. Praise you for their safety and blessing them in all ways. Keep each reader in the palm of YOUR HAND and draw them to YOUR SIDE. 2 Peter 3:9 King James Version (KJV)9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. YES this means YOU!! In Jesus Name—A-men
