Series: Urban Legends 2
Dr. Larry Osborne
John 14:6

WHAT MOST
PEOPLE BELIEVE:

- Dead people go to a better place because. . .

WHAT THE BIBLE

- There is a real place called hell.
Matthew 10:28 and Mark 9:42-45/ 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10/ Revelation 20:11-15/ Hebrews 10:26-27

- It was made for Satan and his angels.
Matthew 25:41/ Revelation 20:10

- God doesn't grade on a curve.
Isaiah 64:6/ Romans 3:23 and 6:23/ John 1:12-13 and 1 John 2:3-5

- Jesus is the only ticket to heaven.
John 14:6/ Galatians 2:21

Hebrews 11:6/ Deuteronomy 29:29 and Isaiah 55:8-9

Matthew 28:18-20/ 1 Peter 3:15

1 Corinthians 9:19-23
