Is It Possible To Love Someone To Hell?

 

 

 

 

^"7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
⁸ For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
⁹ The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
¹⁰ I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings."  (Jeremiah 17:7-10 KJV)
  "But brother Jason that's an Old Testament passage!,"   Many will scream.  Well HOLD your horses for a moment and read aloud the following passage, in which are the red letter Words of the Christ Himself:

"15 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,

² Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
³ But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
⁴ For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
⁵ But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
⁶ And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
⁷ Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
⁸ This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
⁹ But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
¹⁰ And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
¹¹ Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
¹² Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
¹³ But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
¹⁴ Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
¹⁵ Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
¹⁶ And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
¹⁷ Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
¹⁸ But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
¹⁹ For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
²⁰ These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man."
  The Lord Jesus used the Word "KARDIA" G2588- "denotes the centre of all physical and spiritual life."

The Lord is showing what God the Father spoke and speaks through the "Weeping Prophet" that our human seat of will, choice, and emotions is flawed, and apart from His Holy Spirit, and Written Word, it WILL AND CAN SPEAK THE WRONG THING!  Hence the power and authority of the Word of God, OVER the words of man.  Human perception of a Western Civilization view of the word love is easily flawed.  We love our spouses, cars, pets, kids, sports, and bank accounts.  All with the same word.  So our perception of love can be so easily flawed and tainted!  Now consider for a moment the Word love Jesus uses in His discourse with Nicodemus on that faithful night the Gospel seed was sown to an elder of the leaders of Jerusalem, and Judea.  Jesus uses "Agapao" G25- Verb to welcome, to entertain, to be fond of, to love dearly in regard to people."  Lost people in the context of this passage and usage.  Well... what is the noun of this verb?  It is "AGAPE" G26-"affection, good will, love, benevolence, brotherly love."  Notice the selfless words in this definition?  Benevolence.  Good will.  Brotherly love.  Affection. "  In our own humanistic love, we love because of return, yet in Agape or God's Love, we are loved by His choice regardless of return!  Herein lies the problem.  If we are afraid and are dishonest about a lost soul's spiritual destination in relating to them, because we "don't want to offend them..."  "I don't want to be called a 'Bible Thumper' or They'll call me a judgmental person..." Friend that is NOT LOVE!  If you truly "agapao" another human being you will be truthful regardless of what your flesh, emotions, self-esteem/pride, or HEART says emotionally.  Look back in John chapter 3 discourse between Jesus and Nicodemus.  How many verses are spoken and written before Jesus EVEN MENTIONS LOVE? 

 

3 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

² The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
³ Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
⁴ Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
⁵ Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
⁶ That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
⁷ Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
⁸ The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
⁹ Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
¹⁰ Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
¹¹ Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
¹² If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
¹³ And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
¹⁴ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
¹⁵ That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life."  (John 3:1-15 KJV) 
Fifteen verses before Jesus gives the "WHY" he is able to be saved.  It is answered in John 3:16.  Jesus spends fifteen verses telling Nicodemus "HOW" and the reality of spiritual condition, and the NEED of SALVATION, and even foretells Nicodemus of the MEANS this would be accomplished, by the CROSS and the Son of God.  That is love.  Consider this in a modern since of application.  "NICODEMUS!!!!! Your house is on fire and you are in DANGER!!!"  Is this the action of love for Nicodemus?  Of course, YES it is!  The opposite would be this... well Nicodemus' house is on fire, but I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, he won't like what the reality is so, I will wait and let someone else tell him.  You know, because I am really more concerned with his self esteem, and his being "happy" and I just love him to much to hurt his feelings with the Truth.  Someone else can tell him.  Is that love?  In many humanistic views people would say yes, I didn't hurt his feelings.  Christian, you've NO SUCH LUXURY!  So let us ask the question once more.  Is it possible to love someone to Hell?  Human wise...yes Beloved it is.  Christ like "agapao" WILL NOT LET YOU REST UNTIL YOU'VE SHARED THE GOSPEL!  So do you love the lost souls living in your sphere of influence?  Or do you agapao the lost God has placed in your path?   Just some food for thought Beloved, Love in Christ, Jason.
