God Sends "Good" People to Hell

Here is the rest of my proof as based on the Bible.

1 Timothy 2:3-4
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of GOD OUR SAVIOR, WHO DESIRES ALL MEN TO BE SAVED AND TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH.

Does that actually qualify as proof?

Romans 5:8
BUT GOD DEMONSTRATES HIS OWN LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT WHILE
WE WERE STILL SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US.

If we accept the Bibles word, which is almost a "friend of a friend" situation.

1. God loves the world so much that He made a way for us to escape Hell when we die. Don't ignore God's love for you. Don't reject the only way of salvation.

So the Bible says...

2. God sent His Son Jesus to the world with a command: that we (the world) should exercise faith in Jesus Christ for salvation from sin and separation from God in Hell.

So the Bible says...

3. God's will is that we believe in Jesus Christ so that we can have everlasting life. That was His whole purpose for sending Jesus to Earth. To die for our sins, and rise from the dead so that we could have everlasting life.

So the Bible says...

4. God doesn't want ONE PERSON TO PERISH IN THE LAKE OF FIRE FOREVER.

So the Bible says... though it is illogical. If God didn't want people to perish in the lake of fire the lake of fire wouldn't exist.

5. God desires for all people to be saved.

So the Bible says... even though many more would be saved if he offered them proof, and pointed us towards the correct religion.

6. God shows His great love for us by sending His only Son to die for our sins while we were still sinners. God didn't wait for us to start being good before sending Jesus.

Holy Repetition Batman! You do realise rewording previous points doesn't actually make them new do you?

7. God commands us to believe on Jesus because He wants us to be saved. God also commands us Christians to love one another.

Which is why there is such passionate division amongst the many sects/denominations and why God has made no obvious sign to the people of the earth to say which are the correct Christians.

Yes. That's the whole point.

Once again friend, the Lord Jesus Christ is referring to believers who have done these benevolent things not unbelievers. You must do a better job friend of rightly dividing the Word of Truth (the Scriptures, the holy Bible). Any seemingly insignificant thing that a believer does for others (including for othr believers) the Lord sees/treats as though we have done it for Him.

* non-believers or unbelievers, if they are good in the eyes of God, He will NOT send them to hell...

"For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe."
I Timothy 4:10

* have you seen that, my friend? God is the Savior of ALL men especially of those who believe -> which means: God can save people even though they do not believe...

* as simple as that, my friend... God will NEVER EVER send a good person to hell... 😉

Then the point is futile, as the Bible is proof of nothing.

You have to love him? Well, garsh, God most send about a million people to suffer eternal torment and damnation for not loving his son.

Jesus is spoiled...

😆 Like the rich kids who parents buy the school board.

How could God send a good person to Hell? How could a loving God condemn and consign a person who has a reputation for being good in so many people’s eyes to a place of torment? Why would God do such a thing?

Well, the answer is simple: No one is good enough to stand before God. God is holy (without sin). Apart from Jesus Christ we are all sinners and doomed to Hell. Yes, even history’s most renowned people are either in Hell or on their way there if they have not bowed their knee to Christ Jesus. Bigotry? Intolerance? Dogmatism?

The truth based on the Bible? How can I speak so absolutely about this subject? There are no absolutes, everything is relative, right? Question: what are absolutes based on objectivity or subjectivity? They are supposed to be based on objectivity. If something is a matter of opinion then it is considered to be subjective. If I ask you what your favorite ice cream is, your answer would not fall under the classification of something that is absolute because it is your personal, favorite. But if I asked you what 3 + 4 is and you feel or think that the answer is, “1,” because that is your belief, now we have a problem. You have just taken something that is absolute and made it relative. You have taken an objective and made it subjective. There is only one right answer to 3 + 4 = 7, and it is not 1. This is an absolute. I don’t see anyone arguing whether 3 + 4 is 7 yet this is an intolerant absolute. The answer doesn’t care whether you agree that 7 is the correct answer. If you mark 1 on your paper you are going to get this question wrong. Why? Because this is an absolute; there is only one right answer to this question. Irrespective of what you feel, think, believe, are accustomed to, your background, culture, upbringing, environment, skin color, social status, income-level, and tax bracket: 3 + 4 = 7.
But then how can so many people be wrong? What about the sincerity of those who are seeking a path to God? I just don’t believe that millions of people could be wrong especially if they are sincere, you say. Question: if a billion people sincerely believed that elephants were the size of ants, and turtles were faster than cheetahs, and sharks can’t smell blood, and that Hitler never existed, and that red is really yellow, and pink was really green, and 3 + 4 was really 9, does that make them right? But what about their sincerity, doesn’t that somehow smooth over the fact that they are wrong? Doesn’t their sincerity add some validity to what they think, feel, and believe? Absolutely not; their sincerity is irrelevant and immaterial, their still wrong. I said all that to say this: as peaceful as Gandhi was, as commendable as mother Theresa was, as good as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was, as laudable as some people say the Pope is, as admirable as your husband, wife, father, mother, siblings, relatives, in-laws, teachers, neighbors, boyfriend, girlfriend, or even adult children may be: if any of these people, yourself included dies in your sins (without asking Christ Jesus for forgiveness) then they/you are lost.

Folks, when it comes to the path to God there is only one right Way.

Truthfully, good people send themselves to Hell when they reject Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

^ You're wasting your life.

He doesn't. Why would God send anything from point A to point B? It seems so ungod like to do that in such a mortal way.
