Ok this thread is specifically calling SecondSon and Sonship to the platform to discuss precisely what it is we all need to know about Jesus and his alleged oversight of the burning of people in Hell for eternity. I’d include JellyKay but he’s got me on ignore as usual.
Why am I starting this thread? Both of the protagonists mentioned are keen to highlight the literalism of eternal suffering, or everlasting punishment, but both are reluctant to step up to the mark and stand up for what THEY believe this doctrine actually really entails.
Here is my opening gambit:
I contest that the doctrine of death, the doctrine of eternal suffering as laid out by those who believe in it and as it has been discussed in dozens of threads over years in this forum, fundamentally describes a version of the Christian God, including the “Lamb” (Jesus) overseeing the deliberate, purposeful burning alive of what will effectively be billions of non-christians who are supernaturally kept alive to endure this suffering for eternity. That is the actual outworking of this doctrine.
Sonship, SecondSon, if I am misrepresenting this doctrine or what you believe about it, please feel free to step in and correct my understanding.
Thank you.
