I like the story Mel Trotter told how one day on a train a man said to him, "Oh you preachers make me sick." Mel said, "I'm not a preacher. I wish I were. I don't know enough." "I don't care what you are", the man replied. "You Christians are always talking about a man going to hell because Adam sinned." "No", replied Mel, "you will never go to hell because Adam sinned. You will go to hell because you refuse the remedy for Adam's sin. Don't you go crying about something that has absolutely been taken care of. If you go to hell you will go over the broken body of Jesus Christ who died to keep you out."

It has always been amazing to me that people will be upset about the preaching of hell and then do their best to go there! There are a lot of things we can't get rid of by trying to believe they don't exist, hell is one of them. I don't believe in taxes but the government still sends me a form every year. My response, I pay! I pay because that's the smart thing to do. I think Mel has the smart thing to do. Instead of complaining about hell, take  the remedy and receive Jesus as savior and then, don't go there!
