Hell (2011)

4.50 out of 5 stars

Description

The Journal also explores the biblical concept of the "Lake of Fire" and the "Second Death" and how they relate to the concept of hell. Among the most divisive and provocative tenets of Christianity is the concept of hell, a doctrine that has sparked fierce debate and skepticism, even among the faithful. The notion that the majority of non-believers are destined for eternal suffering and torment is a difficult pill to swallow, with only a few notorious figures like Hitler and Stalin seeming to warrant such a fate. This past Easter, Time magazine fueled the flames of controversy with a cover story questioning the validity of hell, featuring the doubts of prominent emerging Church leader Rob Bell. In response, the Apologetics Resource Center's quarterly journal, Areopagus, tackles the objections to hell's existence as outlined in Scripture. Through a meticulous examination of both Old and New Testaments, the journal reconciles the apparent contradictions, addressing the paradox of a loving God consigning souls to hell. Additionally, the journal delves into the Eastern religious concept of reincarnation, presenting a compelling refutation, and explores the biblical notions of the "Lake of Fire" and the "Second Death," shedding light on their connection to the concept of hell.
