Question for you....if you believed that hell existed (not sure if you do), what do you think it would be like?
I don't know what hell would be like. I know the common perception (eternity in fire that never goes out, constaint anguish and never ending suffering) but I'm not sure how it would exist. Why create an infinite being (humans) when the possibility exists for that infinite being to suffer for all eternity. Whynot make those that don't believe finite (souls are erased after death) and reward those that believe with infinite souls (believers go to heaven and live forever with God). In the gospel of Thomas, thats not included in the Bible, I believe (and correct me if i'm wrong) that thomas....or peter....thomas i think......asked Jesus why would would an all loving God have it within his powers to condemn someone for eternity. And Jesus answered that Hell didn't really exist, that everyone in Hell will eventually get out, but don't tell anyone because then nobody will be moral. Yes this only brings up more questions even if this event really happened.
Heres another idea to think about. Let's assume that Jesus came to earth and was God's son, died on the cross, and God really exists, he is all powerful, all knowing, and wholly good. When Jesus was speaking on earth and preaching in the markets, he knew that in the year 2010 that 225for70 will post on getbig that God doesn't exist. If we could time travel and ask him what will be posted by whoever 225for70 really is, on getbig, on whatever date, and if Jesus wanted to respond, he would have to say that 225for70 will deny that God exists.
Jesus (God) knew, by definition of him being God, that 225for70 will not believe in the year 2010 on getbig. He knew that the path he was currently taking at that time would result in that consequence. Why did he still take that path? Why didn't he take another path where 225for70 will end up believing. Such a path has to exist since he's all powerful. Why is 225for70 even given the ability (by God) to deny that God exists? If i, a stupid worthless being, can imagine a path of events existing where 225for70 will end up believing in God, God has given me the ability to think that, so it must be possible.
