"Will it not awaken us to compassion, to look on a languishing man, and to think that within a few days his soul will be in heaven or hell? Surely it will try the faith and seriousness of ministers, to be much about dying men! They will thus have opportunity to discern wether they themselves are in good ernest about the matters of the life to come." ~Richard Baxter
"The word "hell" (gehenna) occurs in the New Testament twelve times -- eleven on the lips of Jesus. It is not a myth created by dismal and angry preachers. It is the solemn warning of the Son of God who died to deliver sinners from its curse. We ignore it at great risk." ~John Piper
"There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. ~C.S. Lewis
"The preaching of Christ is the whip that flogs the devil. The preaching of Christ is the thunderbolt, the sound of which makes all hell shake." ~Charles Spurgeon
"If we had more hell in the pulpit, we'd have less hell in the pew." ~Billy Graham
"For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filty conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)--then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignataires, " 2 Peter 2:4-10
"Some want to live within the sound of a church or chapel bell; I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell." ~C.T. Studd
"God keeps no half-way house. It's either heaven or hell for you and me." ~Billy Sunday
