The Hell Post
I wrote a long piece examining every New Testament reference to hell. I did this in support of my new book, You Did Not Choose Me, But I Chose You. (About my books.) In that book, I make the point that people do not suffer eternal torment in hell. We get that part wrong; hell is something different from that, at least as far as can be gathered from what scripture offers. Since my new book is about life in this world much more than what comes after, it was not the place to offer an extensive review of what the Bible does and does not give us to know about the state or destination the word “hell” describes. Still, I expect the assertion to be strange enough to many that it deserves a defense. Therefore, as I promise in the book, I wrote an extended standalone piece looking at everything the New Testament has to say on the topic.
Here is that long, long article about hell.
