So all those who go to hell is spelled out in the bible. Then we have the letter of the law. And we can follow the law to know who goes to hell? The bible warns us about that though. didn't you notice that? The letter of the law condems all?
Galatians 3:11-13
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
What Law is Paul talking about?
Most Eternal Security proponents and or Belief Alone proponents I have talked with think this passage is referring to all forms of Law, but the context suggests that it is referring to the Old Testament Law of Moses (the 613 laws as a whole) and not the commands given to us by Jesus and His followers.
Galatians 3:10 says, "written in the book of the law."
At the time of Paul's writing of Galatians, this would have been the Torah and not NT Scripture.
Galatians 3:17 says, "the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect."
The Law of Moses (the 613) came 430 after the promise of Abraham. So this is the context of the kind of Law that Paul is talking about here.
In fact, why was Paul condemning the idea of obeying the Old Law?
3 "But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage" (Galatians 2:3-4).
Meaning, there were certain Jews who were trying to convince certain Christians into thinking they had to be circumcised in order to be saved instead of coming to Jesus as one's source of being Initially and Ultimately Saved. These Jews wanted these Christians to think that "circumcision" was the entrance gate to salvation and it was the grounds to which they stand upon as being a child of God.
- Galatians 5:2 says, “Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.”
- Galatians 5:6 says, “For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.”
Again, you can read about this heresy of "Circumcision Salvationism" more clearly at the Jerusalem council:
- Acts of the Apostles 15:1 says, “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.”
- Acts of the Apostles 15:5 says, But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”
- Acts of the Apostles 15:24 says, “Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:”
This was the heresy Paul was fighting against. For if a person is seeking to be saved by circumcision or the Old Law (that is no more), they are seeking to be justified by the Law (i.e. the Law of Moses or the 613 laws as a whole or contract). Paul was not against the words of Jesus and the doctrine according to godliness (See: 1 Timothy 6:3-4).
