Hell on Earth (3 of 7)
Series: Living in the Last Days
Pastor Jeff Schreve
Matthew 24:15-22
The cross said it all. Let's pray together. Father, we are so grateful for the cross. And, Lord, we thank You that You proved Your love by giving Your Son for us on the cross. And, Jesus, You willingly went to the cross because You love us. And, Lord, we just pray that You would speak to our hearts; that our hearts would be good soil to receive from You today and receive from Your Word as we study the last days.

We're going to talk today about hell, but not the physical place hell that God created for the devil and his angels; we're going to talk about the hell that is coming to earth. Jesus said that in the last days we are literally going to have hell on earth. The time that is so difficult, those difficult days, those days that are hard to bear, the Bible calls that time "the tribulation period." And Jesus tells us about what's going to happen, because to be forewarned is to be forearmed. And if you know what's coming, you can be ready. You can be prepared. You can be praying. And you can be at peace. So we're going to look today at the t ...
