Bible Question: my dad has asked me a question that i need the exact verces to try to make him understand...if god is a merciful how could he send so many to hell? also he ask if i thought the jews who died in hitlers rule go to hell? why? |
Bible Answer: Greetings! John 3:16 tells us: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 12:32 tells us: "But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself." Romans 10:13 says, "for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." So, if anyone refuses the gift of salvation, he only has himself to blame if he ends up in hell. As for the Jewish people under Hitler, they would make it to Heaven the same way that the rest of us do, by accepting the gift of salvation purchased for them by Jesus on the cross. He is the only way to salvation. Those who accepted Him will be in Heaven, those who did not, will be in Hell. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
