Here is the flip side of yesterday's sign.
I like it. It's succint and sums up one of the central tenets of Christianity: accept salvation from God or face the eternal lake fire of Hell.
The internet is full of sites aimed at scaring the witless into believing. Here are just a couple gems: http://www.eternalhell.net/ and http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Basics/burn_in_hell.htm

ReplyDeleteRosemary, please elaborate. We are all ears.

Why Burn? Becuase if you don't feel the burn you're doing it wrong. Maybe that explains why so many in the south are hambeasts.
