Many people today, if they think of hell at all, take it lightly; or they think of hell in simplistic terms. The real Biblical picture pushes us to think more deeply—to take hell seriously and to see the real hope that we have through the grace of Jesus Christ.

You don’t hear much about hell nowadays. And yet there are many places where we have hell on earth! What does the Bible say about hell? There is in fact deep wisdom in Biblical teaching on this subject – and real hope.

How can you know for sure that there will be life beyond the grave in heaven? Many today would doubt the whole idea of an afterlife. But the Bible points to how we can have confidence in the promise of life eternal through Christ.

What is heaven like? The Bible gives us marvelous imagery, which points to the real nature and glory of heaven, with implications for our lives now.

Is heaven only future? Or can something of heaven take hold in our world now? Human beings seem far from heaven in many respects! But the Bible proclaims that as we trust in Christ we can begin to experience today something of heaven on earth.

Do people enter heaven at the moment of death? Or is there some kind of “resurrection at the last day” at the end of time? There is much confusion on this subject, but it all makes sense when we get the Biblical vision of eternity—a vision that can help us to comprehend events in life today.
