From the pastor’s desk

We have been looking at Heaven for the last several weeks. Today, we are going to turn our attention to the other place spoken of in the Bible as a place of doom awaiting some in eternity. That place is called Hell. What do we know about this destiny? Jesus tells us several things in Matthew 24:41.
