Blockades 1

2Peter 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

            INTRODUCTION:    Some people have the mistaken opinion that God is just waiting to get even with them and that no matter what they do they are doomed.  I personally believe that God has placed many blockades along the road to Hell.

            We don't like to talk about Hell and it seems that when we do we speak of it we talk as if it is a mythological place or a state of mind.

            There are a couple of things I really believe strongly and would like to share with you in the next few devotionals.  One thing is that Hell is a real place, a place of torment, and it will be filled with real people. The other thing I believe strongly is that God has made every provision for us to keep us from going there.

            Because God is a God of love and Grace and His mercy endures forever He has placed blockades on the road to hell.  He has made provision in many ways to make sure that you must make the decision. If a person goes to hell he goes in spite of the barriers that God has placed before him.
