If they are saying "no hell" then they are saying that Jesus is a liar, because He mentioned and described hell more than anyone else in the Bible.
One thing I need to add about hell. There are Scriptural references that say that those in hell are subject to the continuous wrath of God for the rest of eternity. Jesus spent three hours suffering the wrath of God for sinners while on the Cross. He knew it was going to happen, and He pleaded with the Father that if there is any other way to avoid it, let the cup pass from Him. Jesus knew what was going to happen to him and having to suffer it for just three hours was something He definitely did not look forward to and if there was any other way, He would have been very happy to avoid it. Just imagine that people in hell have to suffer the same wrath of God without interruption for ever and ever with no end or escape. Not something any of us would relish. Paul said, "Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men". I don't think we have a clear appreciation of what hell is really like, otherwise we would do much more to try and keep people out of it.
Reading the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, we get a clear picture of what Hitler is enduring at present.
Because Jesus spoke about the reality of hell and described it as a place of torment and fire, those who deny that hell exists is saying that Jesus is lying. In my view, anyone who calls Jesus a liar is not saved and will certainly end up in the hell that Jesus described in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus.
Not everyone who professes Christianity is actually saved. If Hitler was a real Christian in his heart, he would never have done the things he did, and would not have committed suicide. The Scripture says that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and if anyone destroys the body, they will be destroyed in the sense that they will be rendered totally useless for anything to do with heaven, and there is only one other place the person can go.
Jesus said quite clearly that a fiery hell where people are in torment for eternity, and He doesn't lie.
I was commenting that hell is forever. Hitler is not in hell because of what he did. What he did was evidence of the real reason he is in hell, which is that he was a rebel against God who turned his back on God's salvation offered through Christ. He basically trod the blood of Christ underfoot through his rejection of Christ and that is why he will suffer under the continual wrath of God for the rest of eternity.
So you are not prepared to say that Jesus is lying about His description of hell as shown in His parable of the rich man and Lazarus, where the rich man in hell is being tormented in the flame.
I didn't say he was a Christian. His intent was to be one and spent time learning about it. It was in a documentary I saw. So much is being said that is not truthful here. Why lead people astray? It's not right!
Then I guess people that say stuff on this thread that are lies are not saved either, right. Who are you to make that judgment?
I'm not offended. It is all in the interests of fair debate.
