Francis Chan - Hell: We can't afford to get it wrong

I have had been very blessed to see him the last three years and have been blown by how simple yet deep and important scripture is. It really blows my mind on how we can't out sin God's power to save. Every body is searching for God, even if they don't know or not. Yet they won't find Christ without us going because they won't come to us.

If an all-loving god wants to punish and torture someone by sending him/her to hell not for a day, not for a week, not for a year, not for 20 years, but for all eternity because that person did not love. him, I don't want anything to do with such an all-loving god. Sounds like this god is infected more with some kind of sadistic pettiness than love. But what else would I expect from a serial killer god who murdered the entire world except for Noah and his family. And still, there is no credible evidence for the existence of hell, or heaven, or even god.But thanks for the video. I always enjoying watching good fiction.

When you have sometime read the Great Controversy by E.G.White it will help you with your question. May God bless you.

Wow, this is wonderful, Francis you are a wondeful teacher!

Traditional Hell-believing Christianity 101: God can save all mankind but He doesn’t want to (Calvinism). God wants to save all mankind but He can’t due to free will (Arminianism). Truth: God wants to save all mankind, planned and purposed to do so from the foundation of the world and has the power, will and foresight to accomplish it (Christian Universalism).

Coincidently, was reading Matt 22, (Esp. 22:22-13 - 12 and he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding robe?’ And he was speechless. 13 Then the king said to the attendants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.” Just remember that Wedding guests must change to Wedding rope!

Contradiction: Hell is real and we need to tell what scripture has said it is, not something different much as we like people to see it the way they want... For example if I do not believe gravity exist, it does not make it absent! I (and everyone) will still be bound to the law of Gravity! It does not depend on what we feel or say! We need to get people to face the facts!

The word Gehenna occurs 12 times in the New Testament and in every case it is properly translated "hell" denoting the eternal state of the lost after resurrection, Jesus using the garbage dump of endless fire to describe the place "hell" Matt 5:22,29,30, Matt 10:28 etc. other phrases presents hell with distinctness, such as. "unquenchabel fire," "the blackness of darkness," "furnance of fire", "torment in fire and brimstone," the smoke. of their torment," "the lake which burneth with fire & brimstone,"where the worm dieth not," Jehovah is a God of balance, He would not offer eternal life for the righteous, who have placed faith in Jesus Christ,& for the unrighteous who have rejected God's goodness and sacrifice, annihilationism, God is eternal and therefore His gifts and punishments are eternal also.

Here is a man who is humbly seeking The Lord's will in his life and who also has a great desire to encourage other believers in Christ to do the same in their lives as well. I am looking forward to reading his book.

Wow

Francis's meek and lowly heart attitude yet grave soberness remands one of someone who just read "Sinners In The Hands of An Angry God" by Johnny Edward's and wept. Then read "God In The Hands of Angry Calvinist's" by Birch and want's to go out and pull a Mother Theresa on some homeless person.

Just finished this book. It's awesome and very convicting book.

I love Francis Chan's books and sermons. Crazy Love is awesome! I bought Erasing Hell the day it came out and read it in 3 hours. Great book! I have to disagree with him on one point though, that the flames of hell are not literal. Sorry brother, I have a hard time believing they're not!

WOW! We CAN'T afford to get this wrong!

I'm an atheist and I even thought he was a very good speaker lol, though he didn’t persuade me other wise, he is very appealing.

Rob Bell, take a look at this and tell me that he's wrong cause he just showed us that God can send someone to hell. I love this message so much there is so much truth in it. God bless him forever. I want to follow him more.
