Here is an excellent quote from the mighty man of God, Dr. Lee Roberson, concerning eternal punishment . . .

“Somebody says, 'The thought of Hell is so horrible.' Well, my friend, so is cancer, so is tuberculosis, so is the grave. Someone said, 'I believe sin ought to be punished, but not for eternity.' That's your view, not God's. Again another says, 'I don't believe in the wrath of God.' Then you don't believe your Bible. The Bible says the wrath of God abideth on the one who doesn't believe in Jesus Christ. He is lost forever. Now, these things come to us out of the Word of God. The teaching of eternal punishment should give us a hatred for sin. We ought to hate sin. The reason we have changed so much in this day in all of our churches is that we are not hearing much on this subject. Therefore, we endorse sin. We engage in sin. We camouflage the sin in our lives and allow things to go by, instead of hating sin as God wants us to hate sin . . . The teaching of eternal punishment should give us a passion for the souls of men.”

I am thankful when I hear pastors preaching on the reality of Hell, fire and brimstone. We don't hear enough nowadays of that kind of needful preaching. Dr. Lee Roberson is so right in the preceding great quote. God's wrath against all wickedness is inescapable, except through the precious blood of Jesus Christ which cleanses away all our sins (I John 1;7).
