Mark 9:42-50 – Hell
  • As much as I would like to – I cannot believe Hell is about non-existence.
  • God create our souls for eternity… one way or another.
  • Jesus it seems thinks about Hell in the same way as the Tanakh speaks of it. He brings revelation about the Kingdom of Heaven but little new about the existence of Hell.
  • Gehenna [the valley of Hinnom was a word used in Matthew 5. A real place south of Jerusalem used to depict Hell. A perpetually burning rubbish dump that never went out.
  • See Isaiah 66:24
  • Deuteronomy 32:22
  • 2 Samuel 22:6
  • Psalm 18:5
  • Psalm 116:3
  • Psalm 9:17
  • Job 26:6
  • Hell was very much a Old Testament Jewish belief that Jesus believed in.
  • If that’s true…
