My personal experience in churches preaching eternal hell/annihilation, such as fundamentalist groups, has only taught me to judge, hate, condemn and despise my neighbor. The Christian groups I frequented taught that His love, mercy and patience only last so long. Since I had been told that God condemns unbelievers to hell, I could not love them. It was impossible.
This was very contradictory to the experiences I have had in prayer in the Spirit.
But today, I believe in a Saviour who has successfully saved the world He came to save! Praise God! God IS love.
Just my 2c..
Blessings to all here,
