“I Don’t Want To Go To Hell!”
Royal Oak, Michigan. It is sometimes frowned on when Christian evangelists speak about the reality of Hell. But the fact of the matter is, if Jesus died on the cross to save us, just what was it that he was saving us FROM? We don’t have to be angry “bible thumpers,”...
