Charlie Peace was a criminal. Laws of God or man curbed him not. Finally the law caught up with him, and he was condemned to death. On the fatal morning in Armley Jail, Leeds, England, he was taken on the death-walk. Before him went the prison chaplain, routinely and sleepily reading some Bible verses. The criminal touched the preacher and asked what he was reading.

 ‘‘The Consolations of Religion,’’ was the reply. Charlie Peace was shocked at the way he professionally read about hell. Could a man be so unmoved under the very shadow of the scaffold as to lead a fellow-human there and yet, dry-eyed, read of a pit that has no bottom into which this fellow must fall? 

Could this preacher believe the words that there is an eternal fire that never consumes its victims, and yet slide over the phrase without a tremor? Is a man human at all who can say with no tears, ‘‘You will be eternally dying and yet never know the relief that death brings’’? All this was too much for Charlie Peace. So he preached. Listen to his on-the-eve-of-hell sermon.

‘‘Sir,’’ addressing the preacher, ‘‘if I believed what you and the church of God say that you believe, even if England were covered with broken glass from coast to coast, I would walk over it, if need be, on hands and knees and think it worthwhile living, just to save one soul from an eternal hell like that!’’

My reader, because the Church has lost Holy Ghost fire, men go to hell-fire! We need a vision of a holy God. God is essentially holy. The cherubim and seraphim were not crying, ‘‘Omnipotent! Omnipotent is the Lord!’’ nor ‘‘Omnipresent! and Omniscient! is the Lord,’’ but ‘‘Holy! Holy Holy!’’ This vast Hebrew concept needs to penetrate our souls again. If I make my bed in hell, if I take the wings of the morning—yet He is there. God compasses us in time; God, the inescapable God, awaits us in eternity. We had better be at peace with Him here, and be in the center of His will now!

A Visit To Hell

 Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

A Visit to Hell

I had stopped at the Love's Truck Stop to pick-up some fuel in Waller, Texas. In the next fuel island was an old friend, fueling up his truck.  We worked together for a few years, but we both worked for different companies. His name is Sammy, he is an immigrant from El Salvador,  and he has been working for Brenntag for over ten years. 

Sammy started sharing with me a lot of different spiritual experiences he was having throughout his life.  He said it started when he was praying whether or not he should change jobs.  Sammy said that God told him to keep his current job.

After a few different stories about his life, Sammy shared with me about a man in England, named Tandell, that gave his testimony on a radio show.

Mr. Tandell said that twenty years prior, he had raped and murdered a woman from Thailand, in London, England.  He said that he would never be caught, but after twenty years he had a major heart attack and his heart completely stopped!

Mr. Tandell was rushed to the hospital while the paramedics tried to work on him.  This man said that he was looking down on his body from above when the paramedics arrived.  He then started walking away with a very thick, black cloud chasing after him!  He would say later the thick, black cloud was time closing in on him!

Tandell was running from the thick, black cloud, when he came to three tunnels.  He said the tunnels were his three big mistakes in life.  He chose to go down one of the tunnels.  He was running down the tunnel with darkness closing in on him!  He came out of the tunnel, and started walking on a rope bridge.  This rope bridge spanned a lake of boiling blood!

When he got to the other side, demons that resembled frogs standing upright jumped on him and started stabbing him with knives, and kept killing him over and over again, but he could not die!  This went on over and over again until he woke up in the hospital!  He woke up screaming for help!

The doctors revived his heart by shocking his chest.  That’s what brought this man alive again, and back from the dead!  This man knew immediately when he was revived, that he was being punished for the murder that he had committed twenty years ago!

He asked the doctors and nurses to call the police immediately.  He was a murderer, and he wanted to confess his crimes!  The medical staff was confused, but they called the police anyway. 

Two detectives arrived, and he confessed to the murder, and everything else that he was guilty of.  He confessed to all of his crimes to the police, but especially to the murder of the woman!

The courts pronounced him guilty and gave him a life sentence in prison.  This man spent the remaining years of his life in prison reading the Bible! That’s how he died years later, in his prison cell reading his Bible![1]
