There is some really good news in today's passage about hell.  Yes it says  that it is an unquenchable fire.  That doesn't sound good.  But it is preventable.  God knows His own.  He will gather them into His barn.  

Jesus lays out a dichotomy of HIS fire: the intimacy of the holy spirit, real, ongoing relationship vs. the fire of judgment.

What if you don't like it?  I am pretty sure that is exactly the point.  My snarky question for the day:  If you were in charge of designing hell, how exactly would YOU design it?  No hell?  Wait, then there is no JUSTICE.  I've never seen a group of people with placards outside a contentious courtroom chanting, "We DON'T want Justice!  We want it NEVER!"  No.  That never happens.  We are profoundly not sovereign in this realm.

Jesus is mighty, He is worthy and He favors the fire of baptism of the Holy Spirit.  We should too.  Thanks for listening.  Please share this email, or instagram, or twitter, or post.
