How can God be loving yet send people to Hell? D.A. Carson answers.


By Terry - Posted on 16 November 2009

Like it or not, every Christian at some point will have to come up with an answer to the dilemma of how a 'loving' God could consign people to hell. Whether you spend your time witnessing to atheists or encouraging those in the faith, everyone has this question gnawing at the back of their mind.

Is there a Biblical answer which will seem relevant and meet the intellectual expectation people have on this issue?

At Christian Faith we believe so. We do not shy away from the tough teachings of the Bible and so part of our mission is to equip the saints with answers to the questions we are confronted with at the coal face.

Don Carson has provided us with a gold mine of study material over the years. Some of his works are classics and will be the standard reference books in their field for many years to come. (For a list of his works, click here).

Hell is a topic we don't talk about much, but perhaps we would if we had a more robust understanding of the issues.

Here, Carson provides a clear, succinct answer which is Biblical and easy to understand.
