HELL
Christian Teachings
I agree with you Ruby because there are many Christian debates about what hell is really like. But here's what I know - John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son so that we may not perish, but have everlasting life". The other scripture is John 14:6 which says this, "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me'".So I know God loves the world with all His heart and it is not His will that any of us perish. And I also know that the only way to experience eternity with God is to accept Jesus Christ. Therefore since He made such and incredible sacrifice for me, then I will serve him gleefully, willingly, and with fortitude because I want to and because I love Him, not because I am afraid. However I do have a reverential fear of God, which combined with love, causes me to want to do His will.
