Does anyone deserve to go to hell

But neither are we who might go there. Even if hell is not real to our instruments, to say that hell is real to us is quite enough. Lash went on to say and I am paraphrasing that eternal damnation — or its opposite — would have to be something experienced before we died, perhaps if the immediately preceding moment were spent in hell.

This is perhaps why those who kill themselves at least regretful suicides may be considered damned. The argument might sound improbable, but it is at least not logically impossible. The only thing that is absolutely impossible is that we should ever experience being dead. And most of the time, most of us — given mercy — can. This article is more than 5 years old. Andrew Brown.

But he does say it to warn us - and to help us see how amazing it is that he offers us a way out. Because this is the amazing news - that even though we all deserve punishment, even though we deserve to go to hell, Jesus - God himself - has provided a way out for us.

It seems to me as if this is a truly loving God. He loves the world enough to punish wrongdoing, and he loves people enough to take the punishment himself. He loves us enough to give us a choice: we can ask him to be part of our lives now, and so avoid hell and look forward to enjoying his perfect eternal kingdom. What is Christianity? Find a Course Run a Course. How could a loving God send anyone to hell? Abi Weaver. More tough questions If God exists, why is there suffering?

Why would an omniscient god allow his creation access to a tree of knowledge in the first place? Would he not know that they would turn against him? If people could just expel their egos and critically think for themselves again maybe there would be less division in the world.

I feel like this is ridiculous. If God truly knows everything that will happen to everyone since it goes with his plan, why would he set Adam and Eve up for failure with the tree? God also commanded that we spread humanity and sin when he told us to be fruitful and multiply, which multiplies sin as well.

Our sinful nature is proof that God has actively set us on the path to hell, and commands us to do something unnatural. Our infirmities come with the package of coming into being. He set the default state to hell because he wants us to go to hell.

Jesus is the one whose atonement takes a meagre selection of us who are lucky enough to believe, that we might see his righteous cruelty that he inflicts the rest of us Romans Is this unfair? No, because God is outside of the law. He does what he wants, and is by definition, good. He is not responsible for us, because he gives account to no one.

God is fairness, and there is no escape. Original Sin and the bondage of the will prove this. What about people who have never even heard of him? Does he just send them straight to hell? The tree of Knowledge and the birthing of sin. And he supposedly loves us a lot. Yet we get so much pain.

Go to Lds. It has a purpose, and is not a destiny. No people, God will not punish anyone forever! There was one word that was mistranslated, it is aion, same as our English, eon, it means for an age or a period of time but it does not mean forever! God wants all saved, and He knows how to do it! Not me. I will be honorable, and face the righteous and fair judgement of God. I absolutely refuse to let someone else suffer for my own actions. Especially if the cost is completely fair, reasonable and loving.

Anyone who tries to escape, obviously lacks any trust that Gods judgement is fair and reasonable. Your email address will not be published. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
