The word (DEPRAVITY) means to make bad, or worse, to vitiate, to corrupt or to pervert.
When God created, He said all things were good. Man was made in the image of God, pure, righteous, holy and without sin. God made male and female in this image. God Himself is pure, righteous holy and without sin. When God made man, He gave him the ability to choose. Man was placed in a perfect environment in the Garden of Eden.
God gave man certain commands to go by. He was told that he could eat of all the trees in the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. If man ate of this tree God said he would die.
Man became deprave when he took of the fruit of the tree and disobey God. Man became as God to know good and evil.
Since the fall of man, man is now conceived in sin from his mother womb. Because of one man’s sin death came and all are sinners.
Man did not go forward after his creation, but man went backwards. Man today is not going forward but in a backward sinful life.
Man must come to Jesus to escape everlasting death in hell.

HELL
The word HELL describes two places. One is HADES, the place where the unsaved go immediately at death. The other is called eternity. The first is like a jail where a person accused of a crime is kept until his trail, The second the Lake of Fire is like prison where one goes after his trail.
Hell is a place of torment. There is fire, darkness, and remembrance. The pain is so great that people will cry out and grind their teeth together.
The occupants of Hell will be all the unsaved. When God created it Hell, He created it for the fallen angels. When man sinned God included man to go to hell.
After the Great White Throne Judgment all the occupants of Hell will be cast into the Lake of Fire for eternity.
In the Greek, Hades is a place called Hell, a place of the unsaved. Hell also comes from the Greek word Gehenna, place of Torments, the Greek word Tartarus means infernal region. In the Hebrew Sheol is translated grave.

REPENTANCE
The word REPENT means to feel sorrow, remorse, or regret for one’s past conduct, to have a change of mind about a pass action, from New Webster’s Dictionary. The Hebrew word for Repent (Nacham) to be sorry, to pity, Greek word for repent (Metanoeo) to think differently or afterwards, reconsider, feel compunction, regret for wrongdoing.
Repentance is the first aspect of the believer’s initial experience of salvation, called conversion. True conversion is an essential part and proof or regeneration. Regeneration is God working in us and conversion is man working out his salvation in repentance and faith. He who repents, hates the sins he is sorry for, and is sorry for the sins he hates.
Repentance is necessary for salvation. John the Baptist message was to repent (Matthew 3: 1-2).
Jesus’ message was to repent (Matthew 4: 17), and the Apostles also preached repentance (Mark 6:7-12). If there is no repentance one will perish, (Luke 13:3). Jesus came to call sinners to repent.
