The No Hell Defense?

(1/5) > >>

thetruth:
If you were asked to present your ONE main biblical proof that Hell does not exist without using that "God is love". What would it be? I put that exception in there because, Many say they know His love but it doesnt seem to matter.So again what is your One main proof that you have learned from Rays teachings that you would or do use to prove that there is No Hell?

I like to go on the offense.  You cannot prove a negative or non truth.  I would ask what is the ONE biblical proof that shows there is an everlasting hell fire?  With the understanding that the English translation must be an accurate representation of the Greek scripture.

For me it would be Romans 5:18 Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people.

Thanks John,Now i know we have it covered from both the offensive and defensive side...They are sure not to get away now..lol.I read over my statement 3 times and made adjustments but still seemed to have left a loop hole.So now can i get a response?

I'm not sure there is one thing that 'convinced' me.  All kinds of questions and concerns raged in me in the days and weeks after I believed.  (Some of these possibilities have even become doctrines in some churches--eternal annihilation, seperation, purgatory, and the sort-of 'hell-light' that was preached in my last church, etc.)  What calmed those storms and ended those arguments was seeing in Scripture that God is Sovereign.  That He does with man what He wants when He wants to for His own purposes.  That He declares His purpose to create mankind in His image.  That He is working a plan that very few would see the Wisdom in.  And that He's clearly stated His intention to reconcile all things unto Himself, each in it's own turn.  If THOSE things are true, then it is impossible for there to be ANY 'alternative' which would thwart Him--the Doctrine of Hell being the most evil.

Anyways, if I wanted to argue, I'd ask them to read the open letters to Hagee and Kennedy.  They overthrow pretty much every objection to God saving All.  Nobody can wiggle out of at least hearing the Gospel reading them.  Then God will either soften or harden hearts as He's always done, and I might have a clue who I am 'arguing' with--a sincere seeker, a religious hobbyist, or someone God is not calling out at this time.

I doubt that's the kind of answer you were looking for, but it's the only one I can give.
