My point was that we (or at least I) cannot answer HOW God does the things he does. It is my job to believe and obey his word.
Did the Jews know how God was going to deliver them out of Egypt? Did they know how that he would part the Red Sea and kill their enemies? They questioned how can we kill these Giants God commanded us about?
I dont know HOW God can either kill a soul in Hell or keep it alive for eternity. If I knew I would be as smart as him! All I know is what he tells us in the scriptures.
I profess to preach THEM. If you know the answer you tell me. Until then I will just believe what is written.
Yes Hell will be very, very, bad. One day there will seem like a thousand years.
Yet the penalty for sin is death.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed ? for the end of those things is
death. 22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:23
This I can preach with all confidence. It is written.
