Probably one of the most importan aspects of Christianity is the concept of the all forgiving, all loving, all merciful God. A God that, regardless of the crime, will be willing to forgive and still love you. Seems legit.
But then you have Hell. A pit of eternal damnation, that spews forth the most horrible tortures imaginable.
So, this begs the question: How could an all loving, all merciful, and all forgiving God, knowingly allow his Children, which he is said to love very much, into the fiery pits of hell?
That just sems that hypocrtical.
An all forgiving God would not care what you've done, no matter how horrible. That's what all forgiving means.
An all loving God would love his children, regardless of the crimes committed by the individual.
An all merciful God would never allow his children to suffer such torment that is derived from the fires of Hell.
If God allows one of these things, he is not either all-merciful, all-forgiving, or all-loving.
I eagerly await your responce, and hope we can have an intelligent, and productive debate.
Kind regards,
