Bible Question:
How is it possible that a loving and just God, could eternally condemn unbelievers to eternal torment, for their inability to believe the gospel message and respond in faith? Does God condemn them for their inability to turn from their sins? |
Bible Answer: I think you are misunderstanding. God does not condemn us to hell. we are given a choice. it's very simple..We must choose to accept His free gift of salvation. so you see, it is our choice. it is left up to us whether we go to hell or not. He has made a way out for us, that is very loving.mankind is so sinful, we don't even deserve that. but God loves us so much that He came and died for us, so that we would not be condemned to hell. |
