Podcast 360 -- Hell and Damnation Luke 16:19-31
Manage episode 472115806 series 1964405
There's no way around it, Christianity teaches the only way to eternal life is through a conscious decision to accept Jesus Christ's sacrificial atonement on the Cross. Timothy Keller states many find this the most offensive doctrine in Christianity. We take up the difficult question of why a loving God would consign people to eternal torment. We divine some answers from the Parable of the Rich Man and the beggar Lazarus. But what about those who have never heard the Gospel? What about one-time believers who have rejected Christianity because they were abused or victimized by clerics, wayward pastors or outright charlatans? What about victims of suicidal depression? And do Evangelicals overemphasize the avoidance of Hell (Robert calls this fire insurance) above other commands of the Lord? Join us for an intriguing discussion sparked by Keller's The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism.
