Most vacations include an itinerary. You have an idea what you will see and do before you arrive at your destination. The Bible has enough information to project an itinerary for those whose destination is hell. Let’s look at the first 6 days.

Day 1: The trip originates at the gate of death. Since departures are made daily, you are called upon to begin your trip on short notice. Since the journey is only one way, there is no need to concern yourself with return plans.

Your initial point of departure may prove more than a little frightening as you suddenly realize the finality of your destination. The trip itself will leave you with little time to contemplate what awaits.

As you pass through the doorway of death, you will notice almost immediately that your direction is taking you away from the light and toward what appears to be complete and utter darkness. With each passing moment, the darkness becomes more intense. At first the absence of light is only annoying, but you feel it becoming more ominous and threatening.

The intensity of the darkness is matched only by the absence of any joyful sounds—no music, no laughter, no sounds of merriment. As you move farther, faint sounds of moaning and wailing become detectable. They seem to be coming through the darkness from every direction. You become aware of a faint light. It flickers like a flame, yet thick clouds of black smoke dance all around it, keeping the flame from casting off any real hope of light.

Suddenly you find yourself obsessed to know what day and hour it is. Already it feels like you’ve been here for an eternity, and it’s only day 1.

Day 2: The continuing darkness is stifling. It’s as if something is lurking in the veil of night that surrounds you. You yell, you threaten, you even plead, but to no avail. Whatever it is just stays there, producing fear like you’ve never known before.

As your eyes struggle to adjust to the darkness, you become aware of a new sensation. The heat. It’s right at the edge of unbearable. Hot, searing, intolerable heat. You crave water. You’d give anything for a drink, and you try unsuccessfully to push that desire out of your mind. The air is thick, choking, miserable, and it’s just day 2.

Day 3: At least you think it’s day 3. It seems as if it has already been forever. You’ve not been able to sleep. You still can’t believe you’re here. Where are the friends you thought you would see? The knowledge that they would be here too had brought you some comfort in your lifetime. Where is the fun you thought you would have? It isn’t at all like what you were led to believe.

You stumble upon a group of others. You pour out a litany of questions. As they open their mouths, no words come out—only the sound of weeping and wailing. Some in the group don’t even try to respond. They gnash their teeth, as if in some invisible pain.

You wonder when this nightmare will end. You wonder why somebody can’t make it stop, and it’s only day 3.

Day 4: How you wish you could send a message to those you left behind. You’d warn them about this place. You’d tell them what it’s really like, so they’d never come. The thought of your loved ones coming to a place like this is unbearable. You can’t help but think back upon that day when you made your decision to come here. You understood that your rejection of Jesus meant that you would spend eternity in hell, but it didn’t seem real or important then.

Looking back, you think how foolish you were to reject God’s offer of salvation. You wish you could choose again. You find yourself hoping that your loved ones will choose differently, even though you realize such a choice means you’ll never see them again, never touch them, never speak to them. What a horrible realization, and it’s only day 4.

Day 5: You’ve become acutely aware of the absence of any good in this place. There’s nothing sacred, nothing holy—nothing of God anywhere to be found.

For the first time since your arrival, you begin to sense the great gulf that is fixed between where you are and where God is. The span is beyond your comprehension as you try to realize the degree of distance that will separate you from God and those who chose to serve Him. God is on the other side of that gulf. Loved ones in Christ are on the other side of that gulf. What a lonely realization, and it’s only day 5.

Day 6: Through the darkness you saw a new face today. A new arrival. He stopped to speak with you. You could see the terror in his eyes. He asked questions that you had been asking only days before. You opened your mouth to reply, but all that would come out was the sounds of weeping and wailing.

You’ve just spent your first six days in hell. Unfortunately, an unholy, unhappy eternity stretches out before you—and all because you rejected Jesus.

If only … but wait! The fact you’re reading this says you still have a chance! In His mercy, God is giving you an opportunity right now to change your eternal itinerary. Oh, friend, accept it now … before it’s too late. —D. E. Rabineau

“Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21).

God loves you so much that He sent His Son, Jesus, to endure the punishment your sin deserves. Jesus then rose from the dead, proving that He has power over sin, death, and hell. If you are ready to turn from your way to God’s way, call out to Him now. It might sound something like this:

Dear God, I want to never experience the hell I’ve just read about. I confess my sinful thoughts and actions to You, and I trust Your Son, Jesus, as my Savior. I believe He died for my sins and rose again to save me from hell. I claim His free gift of salvation as all I need to live with You for eternity. Make me a new person and help me live for you. Amen.

This scenario is based upon verses found in Matthew 22:11-13; Mark 9:43; Luke 16:20-31; Revelation 20:14-15.
