Why Hell Is So Horrible Many people believe God is mean for making hell. They believe He is sadistic for allowing someone to suffer for all eternity. But remember, the God you are accusing of being sadistic or mean is the same God who died a horrible death on the cross to keep us out….

Why an Eternal Hell Is Justifiable One question I receive quite often is, “Why does 70 or 80 years of sin in our lives deserve an eternity of punishment in hell? That doesn’t sound reasonable. The crime doesn’t seem to fit the punishment.” There are several reasons. First, the greater the one sinned against, the…

Bill Wiese, “The Man Who Went To Hell” While many try to argue away this point, the Bible clearly states that yes, hell is eternal and those who would attempt to teach or promote otherwise will be gravely mistaken. If we do not believe in an eternal hell, then we call Jesus a liar because…
