MISCONCEPTIONS VS. TRUTH

Misconception is defined as a view or opinion that is incorrect because it is based on faulty
thinking or understanding. The Enemy has sold the world  one misconception after another and the people of the world has believed him.. As an old saying goes, we’ve been sold a “bill of goods”. The Enemy has told us  we will go to heaven when we die if we lead a good life, if we help others, even if we attend church every Sunday. He’s even  told us nothing really happens to us when we die; its just a bunch of nothingness. Our bones will turn to ashes and then that too will blow away. Moreover,  he’s told us hell is really a big party that will last forever; there’s no such place as hell. In those times when you have been at your lowest point and you feel God is distant and not answering your prayer; Satan tells you, God is too busy for you, He doesn’t love you; if there was a God He would care. Another lie Satan propagates God and Jesus is a fable to keep the masses under control.  He’s told us hell is right here on earth so there can’t be a hell after we die. What’s really unfortunate? People have believed the lies, the misconceptions, the deceit. Why? Because Satan has convinced people there is no hell. There is no place where there is gnashing of teeth, where there is screaming so horrifying the scariest horror movie cannot duplicate it, where there is darkness so dark it cannot even be described, it can only be felt. People, I’m here to tell you there is a place called hell; there is a place where every single one of these things occur.  I’ve seen the darkness, I’ve heard the screams. I’ve heard the gnashing of teeth.
I’ve also seen the “Light of the world” that brings a peace unlike anything one can find in this life. I’ve been to where there is no night, where no lamp is needed to see, where there is no need for the sun, for the Lord God gave the light. I’ve seen  “a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was a tree of life…There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light.,,,” (Revelation 22: 1-2 Amplified Bible). Years later I read these words and understood for the first time what I saw. What I experienced was not a dream, was not a hallucination. It was real, as real as you are this very minute.
If you are in a dark place, feeling alone, believing the lies of this world, the lies of Satan HEAR ME when I tell you: “There is someone who can bring you peace, who is the Author of eternal life, who can give you strength to face this day.” His name is Jesus Christ, “the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.”(Revelation 22:13, New International Version Bible). He is the Bridge from this horrible darkness to the Light of eternal Peace. Believe Jesus when He says, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life”. (John 8:12, NIV). Jesus tells you, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6-7, NIV). The most powerful, the greatest action of my life has been believing those words and acting upon them.
