@Tuber77Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6. This verse shows that people don't just go to heaven for being good people, they must first beleive in Jesus and repent their sins. God showing such mercy and such Grace as to forgive our sins by us simply having faith and asking shows that he is not a "total ass hole" there are people like me who believe in hell but also believe god is the most loving, he is love.

@tandanman1 i think we do it because the subject matter...well...matters.

Rob has really twisted himself over the years. I think he's become obsessed with this media attention and fame and his beliefs are just... I don't know, sad? He doesn't want to believe that God would let anything bad in the world ever. I mean, first, God didn't condemn us to hell. He gave us everlasting life and we sinned. We were given the chance to do good or bad, and we chose bad. And death is the punishment.

a loving God gives you unlimited opportunity to love him and go to hell. If i kill someone and a judge sends me to jail for it. Is it the judges fault i went to jail? its the same as saying God sends us to hell. No we choose hell by not choosing Jesus.

@tandanman1 So you see any form of questioning and scepticism as a sign of satan?

While Ignorance and complacency is what God requires?

I guess thats why he called it the tree of the knowledge of good and evil

[tandanman1]

why do we debate anyway? what good will it do? most of us including me do it to feel smarter.. as if we succeeded. but most do it not to understand Jesus or care to understand.. they just want to win!!

[tandanman1]

@tandanman1 that picture has been around for years and years. just drawn in a different background. bible says the condemned will be no more. while we will be judged. its funny how he says as if hell is for those people. there is a difference here. those people never accepted Jesus while we did. yeah we all make mistakes but every mistake needs repentance. "those people" dont think they need to repent for anything.. that is why will look at those people and think our hands are clean!!

[tandanman1]

@tandanman1 if God always forgives and hears our cries, than why did the prophets of old leave Gods word for us when God said. they cried, they fasted, the burned offerings but God did not listen... why? cuz only God knows our hearts and inner thoughts. what are the reasons behind our actions. one may look like he is doing good but his intentions are for self righteousness. for selfpleasure. why did Jesus say some will give up there bodies but without love it does them no good.cuz some will do

[tandanman1]

will humans really go to hell forever? will God really do that... i see a very clear patter with people and satan workers... the first attack of satan on something new in everyones life will always start with question. Like Bell is doing. so does satan.. If you are the Son of God.... temptation comes first with questioning. Did God really say you will die if you eat from this tree. go through the bible and see a pattern of satan. first comes the questioning.. and see whats after the questions
