One of the most uncomfortable and controversial teachings in Christianity is the doctrine of hell. Even though we might not like it, the Bible (especially the teachings of Jesus in the Gospels) talks a lot about hell. But it’s a hard pill for many to swallow. The idea that a loving God will righteously judge the wicked for all eternity makes a lot of people squirm- including those who claim to be Bible believing Christians.
What parts of our understanding of hell do we get from Scripture? And what parts do we get from tradition? What will hell be like? How does the Bible describe it? Who goes to hell? And why? How could a God of love send anybody to hell?
And has there been unanimous agreement in the history of the Christian church on all of these things?
