Will A Loving God Really Burn People In Hell? by Nobody: 11:03am On Dec 20, 2020
I really doubt that hell is real.
Of course, I know that people do commit terrible sins.
But brethrens, do you know what it means to torment someone in fire FOREVER.

If you do not know, go out now, buy a candle, light it, and place your hand in the fire for 5 seconds, just give seconds. You'll feel terrible.

Just 5 seconds brethrens.

If your child does something wrong, will you set him or her on fire. Most certainly you won't.

How much more a God whom the Bible referred to as A God of Love.

I very much doubt it, though many claim God will.

You know like when you were naughty as a child and mummy said, "wait till daddy comes home"? I think it's like that, except when you become an adult and mature you don't need mummy telling you daddy is coming before you know to do good.

Besides, an Almighty God telling lowly me to forgive "seventy times seven times" must forgive like seventy million times seven million times at least before casting anyone in hell. And personally speaking, if I sin that much I think I'd have to assume I'm living in hell on earth already or something, because that's just way too much sinning for one single lot of three score plus ten times seven, even.

But I guess I ain't dead yet so don't you dare think of asking me about heaven.

There is a difference between "something wrong" and "many many Wrongs"

There is also a difference between doing "something wrong" and doing "One Big Wrong".

Eg just as you thought Adam and Eve just committed a little wrong, look at the several wrongs that they Commited.

Poor Adam and Eve. They sought Wisdom by eating the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and we read in a book they were punished for getting wise, and free from slavery, and unnaked.

What a lousy description of God, smart people will definitely say! Does that God support boko haram too? Or has satan meddled with Genesis?

The evidence is in the book that they had no clothes, and insufficient wisdom, and I'd add, no freedom and definitely no knowledge of good and evil, so no, I do not see that the two slaves in the Garden of Eden had everything they even needed to do the job that God gave them to do which was to "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

As you can hopefully see for yourself, countries like USA, and China, and India, and Pakistan, and Dubai, and lots of Europe and etc, eat the Fruits of the Knowledge of Good and Evil every day and are growing in Wisdom and Being fruitful and increasing in number; filling the earth and subduing it. Ruling over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground, and even going to the Moon and Mars Uranus, while we Nigerians are starving ourselves of the Fruits of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and wailing that bubu has not given us ordinary light!

May our eyes not remain in the darkness of ignorance.

grin You so much So did not know so that you did not even know that "No One wears clothes in a house they live alone, like I am doing right now.

You so much did not know that unclothedness is the full expression of Freedom, Joy, happiness, pleasure, Rest and all the Good things God has given us and like me typing naked right now, they still possessed with them All their natural wisdom and knowledge and intelligence.

And now I verily Accuse you and Call you a Sneaky Bastard, A True Serpent, A Cheat, A Fraud and a man with No Honour and Void of High Good Morals for I OBSERVED THAT YOU HAVE SNEAKILY SNUCK UP ON ME THE WORD "insufficient wisdom" WHERE AS YOU HAVE BEEN CLAIMING "They sought Wisdom", "for getting wise" all meaning that they lacked intelligence and knowledge.

Now you have Fraudulent and Sneakily Changed your Position to "Insufficient wisdom" meaning they had some wisdom and intelligence, ONLY it was not Much, WHICH WAS NOT YOUR POSITION BEFORE, EVEN BEFORE NOW!

SERPENTBUDAATUM, I hate Snakes, Frauds, Sneaks, Liars and Cheats and I do not tolerate then at all, so if you are not going to conduct yourself fairly and justly it would be best you cease speaking to me.

Re: Will A Loving God Really Burn People In Hell? by Ihedinobi3: 1:38pm On Dec 20, 2020
Nairalandian:

That then is what explains a loving God burning anyone in hell.

Human parents can spank you or ground you or deny you some privileges when you do certain things, but even though there is a limit on what they do to you, they do it to prevent you following a trend that will eventually cost you more. So, when they spank you for pilfering, they're trying to prevent you bagging a life sentence or the death penalty for armed robbery in the future. You don't say at that time that the beating or denial of privileges that they put on you is disproportionate with stealing, say, one piece of meat or just a hundred bucks. They do what they do to prevent something worse.

The Lord God deals with us in a similar manner. Here on earth, He punishes different sins in many ways to warn us of the very worst thing that we are risking: eternal separation from Him and His blessings. That is why tornadoes, pandemics, wars etc happen in this world. If we listen, then we will stop opposing Him and antagonizing Him. If we don't then we risk being cast out of His Presence forever.

There are those who think that that is not fair, that God ought to either forgive everyone or else He ought to just destroy completely everyone who sins so that they won't be "tortured" forever in the Lake of Fire. The answer to those ideas are

1. Those who think that they know a better way to deal with sin than punishing sinners in the Lake of Fire forever are pretending to be either more loving or wiser than God. But are they? How many of these people have put their lives on the line for even a good person, much less for their own enemy? God gave His Son Jesus Christ to suffer a fate worse than any sinner can suffer even if they spent all eternity in the Lake of Fire so that no sinner would ever have to suffer for their sin. God did not need to do that. He didn't owe anybody that kindness. He could easily destroy the whole universe and make an infinitely better one without even breaking a sweat. Yet He chose instead to rescue us who rebel against Him at every turn, Who curse Him and abuse and kill His Children at every turn. Even if a beggar only spat on stale bread that you offer him or her, you would want to beat the living daylights out of him or her, but God tolerates this madness from us and continues to gently but insistently call everyone to repentance so that nobody will end up in the Lake of Fire. So, who thinks that they love human beings better than God to decide what their punishment ought to be for sinning?

As for being wiser than God, it does not take an impressive intellect to see that human beings are incredible fools by nature. We get even the simplest things wrong. We are forever struggling with simple decisions: Should I get the red shoes with the red bag? Should I marry the pretty girl or the smart girl? Should I pursue a degree in engineering or pursue my dream to be a musician? Even those that we consider the best of us demonstrate some of the most incredible levels of stupidity that would boggle the common mind to contemplate: a brilliant software developer educated to PhD levels having trysts in his office with a secretary while having a wife at home and he's famous too, for example. How does any of this demonstrate that we are smart enough to tell God the right way to punish sin?

2. If God just forgives everyone, then where is His Justice? How is He being fair to those who did what He commanded and to those who suffered at the hands of those who did evil?

3. God made us all to last forever. Why did He do that? Even we human beings tend to judge quality by longevity. Why is it surprising that God's works last forever? It is impossible to destroy anything that God has made. The reason? Because He built it to have it forever. He made us for eternal fellowship with Him. If He did not build us with the ability to last, then we could not have that eternal fellowship with Him, could we? But the flip side of that is that if we don't want eternal fellowship with Him, then we must prefer eternal separation from Him. Since He is true reality, think about what that must mean when people reject God. There is no escaping existence. Once God makes anything, it can never be unmade. This is what the Bible itself says in Ecclesiastes 3:14. The thing is that even though some of those things now exist, it is up to those things to decide how they will exist in perpetuity. That is what free will is about. We get to choose what our eternal experience will be. If we love God, we will be with Him as part of His Family and enjoy all His Blessings forever. If we hate Him, then we will spend eternity denied of His Kindness and Generosity and enjoy only His Rejection, just as our trash enjoys being cast away and burned. Why must a Lake of Fire exist though? Because it is a perfect demonstration of what being rejected by God is.


In short, it is foolishness to challenge God's Justice. We are not wise enough to do so. But we certainly are wise enough to know that if your only two choices are between eternal pleasure and eternal suffering, then we should choose eternal pleasure rather than suffering. But insisting that there should be other options especially when we are powerless to create them is madness indeed.

You are correct, GOD is love (1 John 4:8 ), "The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy" (Psalm 145:8 ), but we must remember that GOD is also the perfect Judge, and He must judge.

"For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord God. “Therefore turn and live!” - Ezekiel 18:32

Thank the GOD of truth, the Lord JESUS, Who mercifully tells us things as they are:

"The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!" - Matthew 13:41-43

Thank GOD that today is still the day of salvation from the wrath to come!

"The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." - Psalm 145:18

I still don't understand why you continue to assert that Adam and Eve where slaves, not we're they prisoners in the garden. Nowhere in the story are you informed that they were barred from leaving Eden..matter of fact, we learn much later that there were no gatekeepers until after their deed and this was to keep them out of Eden, not lock them in.

They did not complain of their unclothedness until shame overcame them as a result of their disbelief of God's words.

Do you know that one of the reasons why Jehovah[the name of the God of the Bible] condemned and exterminated the Canaanites was because they literally burned their children alive in fire ?
Check Deuteronomy 12:31 in your Bible.
So why would the same God turn around and subject disobedient humans to the same thing for all eternity? undecided undecided

In fact, Jeremiah 7:31 says that the practice of burning people alive in fire disgusts him. Those who hold to the doctrine of a mythical “hellfire” claim that it helps keep people in check and fear of God but they cannot explain the following points:
1. Should humans worship God because out of fear of a “hellfire” or are they to worship God because they deeply have love and respect for him? Matthew 22:37, 1John 5:3
2. At what point did God create this “hellfire”?
3. Since we all know it was the Catholic Church that forged this “hellfire” doctrine and that they claim it keeps people in check, has the crime rate in countries predominantly occupied by Catholics and other major churches reduced? Or has it been getting worse and worse by the day?

The doctrine of “hellfire” negates Romans 6:7 that says a human being(being a descendant of Adam) is acquitted of his sins once he dies . See also Romans 6:23

They were just ignorant, ba?

They didn't know how they arrived at the point they discovered themselves at and a God said, "Remain ignorant", and that is not slavery enough for you, you see no chains?

You, however, seek to be free so you seek to question to understand. buda rejoices.

Kobojunkie:

You mean, until after their eyes were opened by the knowledge they had consummed, then they were ashamed, no?

I seriously can not believe you can possibly be telling buda to not use the brain that the Lord God Almighty placed in buda's thick skull to shield buda's mind but buda must wait to be "informed"!

It is not possibly that you are saying that to buda so I will wait patiently for you inform me please and see shame.
