Proverbs 27:20-21

Proverbs 27:20 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
21 As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.
 
These verses start off by telling us that hell is never full,we know that it is enlarging itself every day. This first verse goes on to tell us why. Man first sin by looking at the forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden. to this day the eyes probably cause more people to fall grace than anything else. Jesus even said to look upon a woman and lust after he in your heart is same same as committing adultery with her in your heart.. Mans desire are never filled up thus causing hell to increase every day. The one way to stop this from happening is in the next verse. As fire purges the trash out silver and gold so does God purge sin from our lives with the fire of His spirit. Even under great pressure we are to praise God. Let us gain from this that we need God to test us and purge sin from our lives daily to fill those mansions in Heaven instead of enlarging hell.
