The Plan?
- Create humankind in your own image.
- Give them free-will to choose.
- Pay their sin debt.
- Send them to Hell for not accepting a free gift.

Thanks for the provocative posting.

Perhaps the logical conclusions are (a) nothing wrong at all, and (b) good Christians should be preaching the gospel whenever an opportunity presents itself, in order to save as many souls as possible from Hell.

Blessings.

Hell is over with according to the bible.

Many people continue to promote that it is still there, but according to the Bible, there is an outside of the Kingdom, and inside of the Kingdom of God.

Faithful, or remain faithless, you'll end up in one place or the other.

Thank you for your post.

Matthew 5:22
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.

Matthew 5:29
If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.

Etc. Also references in Mark and Luke.

Not seeing any references to inside and outside the Kingdom.

Peace.

The part about creating humankind. Big mistake.

5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lordregretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” Genesis 6:5-7
