Overview

We don’t hear much about hell today. And most of what we hear about heaven comes from popular television shows or celebrity-written books. But what does God say? After all, heaven and hell are both based on God’s character. Tony Evans takes a brief but insightful look at what the Bible says about death, hell, and heaven. Forever is too long to miss Christ in hell. But, forever won’t be too long to get to know him better in heaven. Believers’ citizenship is in heaven, our Father’s house, a beautiful place prepared for us to live forever with Jesus. In a city decorated with transparent gold and jewels, we will know perfect knowledge, perfect life, and perfect service. Find out how you can get a taste of heaven right now!

Top Highlights

“Hell is the expression of God’s settled, eternal, unchanging wrath against sin (Revelation 21:8; 22:15).” (Page 17)

“But the Bible knows nothing of a concept of death that means the person ceases to exist. Death is the separation of our temporary, material body from the eternal, immaterial part of our being, the spirit or soul. James 2:26 says, ‘The body without the spirit is dead,’ but the opposite is not true. Our souls were created to live forever.” (Pages 7–8)

“Some people say that at death, the soul sleeps until it is resurrected. But that view does not have any support in Scripture.” (Page 8)

“remorse of knowing things could have been different, because people in hell will have perfect memories.” (Page 23)

“Hades is the place where the unrighteous go at the moment of death” (Page 20)
