![]() ![]() What have you got to lose? If you’ve ever had doubts or questions about the incompatibility of eternal torment with a merciful God, Raising Hell will open your eyes to a radical view of God’s loving purpose for all humanity and what the “Good News” is really about. Have you ever considered the apparent injustices, inconsistencies, and even contradictions of the doctrine of hell? For starters, do earthly parents love their children more than God? Does God ask you to forgive your enemies when He is not willing to do the same? Is being punished forever for sins committed in a short lifetime really "justice"? Does everybody really get the same fair chance to believe in Jesus before they die? If hell is the worst possible fate of mankind, and if God is truly loving, then… Why did He fail to mention hell in Genesis as the price for sin? Why doesn’t the Old Testament ever teach about or even mention hell? Why doesn't Paul, the apostle to the non-Jewish world, ever once mention hell? Why has orthodox Judaism (to whom Scriptures were given) never believed in any kind of eternal punishment or hell? Why was hell not the orthodox position of the early Church for five centuries after Christ? Why can't theologians agree if we are saved by election or free will? Dare to question. ![]()
