The Lie: God Sends People To Hell - The Truth: God Grants Those People Their Hearts' Desire

@LeopoldBloom [quote]A truly loving God would allow people in hell to be saved if they chose to do so. Arbitrarily cutting people off at death with an eternal prohibition against salvation is not the action of a loving God, whose mercy should be infinite. 1 Corinthians 13:12 says that our knowledge here on earth is imperfect, so if some people don't make the right decision based on incomplete information, not allowing them to correct it later is arbitrarily cruel and unfair.[/quote]

God has made it clear in His Word what we should do to be saved. It is up to us to choose His perfect gift of salvation.

2 Therefore we must give [a]the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. 2 For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just [b]reward, 3 how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, 4 God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts[c] of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will? Hebrews 2:1-4

As for those who are ignorant and can't think for them selves, it's God's decision whether they enter His Kingdom or not, not our decision. So, let God decide, not you.

@GodSpeed63 That doesn't place a time limit on it. Therefore, souls in hell can accept salvation.

Won't wash. If your trying to stay, Leopold, now is the time of your salvation. Otherwise, when you die, it'll be too late.

That's according to the story but it is only a story, it's not to be taken seriously.

@GodSpeed63 Not according to scripture.

Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? [b]You do not stay angry forever[/b] but delight to show mercy. Micah 7:18. Punishment is not eternal.

Whoever says a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. Matthew 12:32. Why would Jesus say this sin is never forgiven, [b]not even in the age to come[/b], unless some sins [i]are[/i] forgiven "in the age to come?"

In the name of Jesus [b]every knee[/b] should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and [b]every tongue[/b] acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10-11. "Every" means everyone.

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit, in which he went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison, because they formerly did not obey. 1 Peter 3:18-20. Souls in hell will be saved.

@GodSpeed63 You're going to be in serious trouble when you meet Odin, as you will one day.
