“If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies. And if they will perish, let them perish with our arms around their knees, imploring them to stay. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for.” – C.H. Spurgeon
This is one of the many reasons why we must defend the doctrine of Hell, as Jesus did. It brings eternity into focus and lends a heavy weight to our mission. It reminds us of the seriousness of sin and the glory of the cross.
