We who proclaim the restoration of all things do not hesitate to proclaim His love shown in His generosity--but also--in His fiery judgments. Further down the board under one of the threads where I'm talking to ##### you'll see an example of this. This example is contained in my testimony of preaching to a group of 500 prison inmates--125 of which surrendered to Christ, many of them crying like little kids. However...
There are brothers and sisters on this board who insist that they "believe" in a--NEVER-ENDING HELL--who apparently are nicer
than God. They repeatedly say that when they evangelize they never preach or "emphazize" God's fiery judgments, as they understand them. No, instead they admit again and again that they are "turned off" by those who seriously and consistantly thunder "hellfire and brimstone." One brother here claims to "believe" in endless hell, yet he scorns such preaching as "a shoddy way" to proclaim the gospel. Would you believe that He calls such ones "legalists" and says (to Tony N.) that those Arminian Christians who ACTUALLY fear hell are "medieval"!?Why is this? Again, all I can surmise is that many folks are
ashamed of --A MOST VITAL DOCTRINE-- they "believe" in.
So they prefer to make the Lord appear nicer than their glad tidings actually portrays Him. I really don't want to be unkind, I mean
that with all of my heart. But in deepest sadness and all sincerity
I must say--What heartless--and dishonest--hypocricy!
The Lord's judgments are REAL. And they ARE certain. So if an ENDLESS HELL awaits billions of hapless human beings, these "soft-soapers" are the most uncaring and loveless people on earth. Has their conscience been seared with a white-hot iron? One cannot help but wonder. For these "grace-oriented" endless hellfire "believers" seem to prefer to make themselves appear nice, and to make the Lord appear VERY nice. Yet, if their endless hell doctrine IS true, what will be the result? Countless myriads of people will wind up in these "grace-oriented" Christian's endless hell...

SURPRISE!
God have mercy--it's time to get real, dear brothers and
sisters. We ALL are going to answer to Him for how we
represent His Son before the world. You know that, and I
know that. So--for Heaven's sake--LET'S GET REAL.
Please...Yours sincerely and prayerfully,
Charlie
