The Fire of Hell

As we visited a sugar cane factory in India, we watched as a young girl forced more and more chaff into the hottest fire I have ever seen. The pit was probably 20 - 25 feet across with a shallow "dish" loaded with about 6 inches of BOILING sorghum. The fire underneath was RED RED hot. I thought of Hugh's favorite sermon source, Psalms 40, and the pit described there and also of Gehenna (Hell) where the fire never goes out. Our pastor took that ppicture of hell literally and reminded us to remind ourselves of the importance of praying for and witnessing to the lost.
