Raise your hand if you want people to suffer in Hell.
I don't want there to be a Hell. I don't want anyone to go to Hell. It is not up to me. How dare I question God, Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth and all creation. (He is the potter, I am the clay) "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life." Rev.21:6
"He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters, and all liars-their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur"(Rev21:7) Hell is a place for those who have rejected Jesus Christ and have not accepted and surrendered to God.
God is LOVE. God is also HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, JUST. Do some think they can violating the different attributes of God and then depend on His Love to be saved?
Do some think God will bring them into His presence when they have ignored Him and turned their backs from Him?
God is Holy and if we haven't repented and accepted Him then we can't be in His presence. Do you have your door open wide during the night for anyone to come in, or do you decide who enters your home? Same with God.
We, as a people (humanity), have a problem. We are selfish. We don't understand everything. It's okay. We don't need to. We don't get to. God didn't tell us everything, however, He does get to the point. Do you trust your maker? It takes surrender.
Anytime you decide to turn to Him, He will Save you. He's Waiting. He's very Patient. Because He Loves us more than we can imagine.
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me" John14:6. "He who is not with me is against me. Luke 11:23.
"Whoever is thirsty let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life." Rev22:17
C.S.Lewis says, "All your life an unattainable ecstasy has hovered just beyond the grasp of your consciousness. The day is coming when you will wake to find, beyond all hope, that you have attained it, or else that it was within your reach and you have lost it forever."
"Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near. (Is.55:6) Look Up Ps.19:1 The Heavens declare the Glory of God. Look Inside Ps.14:1"...The fool has said in his heart, There is no God..." Look around-Rom.1:20 "For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse."
Unbelievers are blind to the truth.
"What came first for this man, friends? Was it sight or faith? What came first? Faith preceded sight. Faith always precedes sight. You have to trust before you see. You have to trust Jesus before it all makes sense. You have to begin with faith. The truth has to be believed and trusted, and then you see. Some of you are waiting to see. Let me say, you are blind. You begin with faith and then you see. You don’t have all the answers. You won’t know all the details. There is no certainty regarding the future and God’s purposes and provisions and plans for our lives. But what we do is we trust him by faith. And in time, we see. Faith is an internal conviction that leads to external actions of worshiping, witnessing, and walking with Jesus." Mark Driscoll from Jesus and Blind Bart
"No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him." 1 Cor.2:9 So, we're unable to know what God has prepared for us in Heaven. There's More! Keep reading. but God has revealed it to us by His spirit"
God explains it to us in the Bible and by His Holy Spirit, who lives in us once we repent, surrender our lives to God and accepting His sacrifice for our sins. There's another verse that says, "The Secret things belong to the Lord our God."Deut.29:29 There's More! but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever.
