Are you a Guardian of the Gates of Hell too?
Cerberus,
also known as Hell-Hound, was the three-headed dog of Hades
in Greek mythology. Its job was to prevent the dead from leaving Hades.
It has been difficult to get a hearing for the idea of Evangelism and Salvation in Hell.
“Everyone knows there is no salvation in Hell”.
“Once dead, there is no hope.”
“This is just another heresy: universal salvation, necromancy, etc.”
No one seems willing to listen.
It is as though barking dogs drown out the discussion before it begins.
Maybe those dogs have three heads.
The spirit of Cerberus still guards the gates of Hell.
Jesus smashed the gates of Hell when He rose from the dead on Resurrection Sunday.
The devil can only steal, kill and destroy. He can’t fix anything.
So the gates are still broken and guarded by a dead dog.
Now all that prevents the dead, who never heard the gospel
from leaving Hell in a Second Harrowing of Hell, is
the duct-tape repair done on the gates of Hell by theology.
People are so adamant either that Hell does not exist at all
or that it cannot be dealt with in any way,
that they refuse to even look at the scriptures concerning God’s goodness and justice.
I am rattling the gates of Hell to attract the attention of the Church!
“Look here! The gates are broken! Don’t let a dead dog frighten you away!
Cerberus theology is all bark.
The scriptures will take a bite out of Cerberus
if we would only open our Bibles and prayerfully consider
