1.      Pro 7:27 – “Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.”

1. Her house is the way to hell,
   1. The strange woman’s house is the gateway to sin (Pro 7:18-19).
      1. The wages of sin is death (Rom 6:23).
      2. Sin not only causes physical death, but also eternal punishment in hell which is the second death (Rev 20:10, 14-15).
   2. The strange woman is heading toward hell.
      1. She will take whoremongers with her.
      2. Fornicators and whoremongers have their part in the lake of fire (Heb 13:4; Rev 21:8; Rev 22:15).
      3. If men and women want to have the assurance of eternal life, they better flee whoredom (1Co 6:18).

• The whore’s house is also the way to hell on earth.
  1. Hell is a place of destruction (Mat 10:28; 2Th 1:9).
  2. The man that goes to the house of the strange woman destroys his own soul (Pro 6:32).
  3. He also destroys his life, including:
     • His honour (Pro 5:9)
     • His wealth (Pro 5:10)
     • His health (Pro 5:11)
  4. The strange woman also represents false religion in the Bible (Rev 17:1-5; Pro 9:13-17).
     1. Idolatrous religion is described as whoredom (Exo 34:15).
     2. Her guests (those that go to her house of worship) are in the depths of hell (Pro 9:18).
     3. If men and women want to have the assurance of eternal life, they better flee idolatry and false religion (1Co 10:14).
  5. going down to the chambers of death.
     1. The strange woman is heading toward death.
        1. Her house inclineth unto death (Pro 2:18).
        2. Her house goes down to the chambers of death (the grave) (Pro 7:27).
        3. Chamber n. – 1. a. A room or apartment in a house; usually one appropriated to the use of one person; a private room; in later use esp. a sleeping apartment, a bedroom.
     2. She will take her lovers with her.
        1. The man that goes in unto her has a death wish (Pro 5:23).
        2. None that go unto her take hold of the paths of life (Pro 2:19).
        3. Many strong men have been slain by her (Pro 7:26).

• Following the strange woman can lead to death in many different ways.
  1. You could die of an STD from her (Pro 5:11).
  2. Her husband could kill you (Pro 6:34).
  3. God could kill you for your sin (Rom 6:23 c/w Act 5:4-5).
  4. You could experience death of fellowship in the church (Rom 1:29, 32 c/w Luk 15:24).
