From the sermonTranscript of this part · Pastor David G. Kincer

▶ 2:54 Because these people were doing things that they were going to be held accountable to God for and somebody needed to tell them see this is the basic message of the gospel. See you think the Muslim terrorists are bad. You read the Bible about having to stand before God and it should scare you into eternal life and hallelujah people don’t want that scary gospel. Didn’t he say it’s a terror. Doesn’t he say it’s a fearful thing yeah. You think you’re not wanting to hear the bad news of the gospel that it’s going to change the gospel. Again I was working two jobs and I come home in between jobs I had just enough time to eat and I was sitting there and suddenly.

What did he see of hell and the judgment?

▶ Watch this part (3:49)

Short answer: Hell was not pleasant, isolation is part of it, and at the judgment no one said a word because they knew they were wrong.

From the sermonTranscript of this part · Pastor David G. Kincer

▶ 3:49 My eyes were open to see hell and it wasn’t pleasant. And then my eyes were open to that judgment day and people were standing before Christ and no one was saying a word because they knew they knew they were wrong when they did the wrong there was no debates there and it was a horrible thing to be in hell and people that say well I’m going to go hell that’s where my sons and daughters are my best friends you are a fool. Hell is not a pleasant place and if you think you’re going to have friends down there forget it. Isolation is one of the parts of hell. Knowing the terror of the Lord we try to persuade men we try to get them to turn. And that’s why Christ died on the cross so you would not have to burn.

What is the good and bad of the gospel?

▶ Watch this part (4:45)

Short answer: Christ died so you would not have to burn; if you don’t turn you’re going to burn, and no church, book, minister or pope can save you.

▶ 4:45 Hallelujah that’s the good part of the gospel the bad part is if you don’t turn you’re going to burn. There’s no church can save you in that day. There’s no book written that can save you in that day there’s no minister on earth can save you in that day the pope can’t save you in that day the only thing is going you’re going to be judged by what you did in this body. Whether what good. Or bad. Unbelievers need to know there is a judgment waiting for you Romans 14:10 we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ everyone shall give account of himself to God.
