God doesn't torture people.

Luke chapter 16
Jesus tells us about two sides of the Gulf.

Righteous in paradise
Wicked and reprobates go to sheol. Wring side of the Gulf.

Those in sheol are waiting for judgement Day.
Those who hate God.
Hate the righteous
Despise his laws
These are 3 qualifiers for lake of fire.

We can't have trouble makers and heretic's in the eternity.

Revelation chapter 4

God created people for his pleasure. If someone hates God, what possible use can Jesus have for them.

Those who repent, and love and serve God have nothing to worry about.

Romans chapter 6

There either servant of righteous or servant of Sin.

Habitual sinner are Reprobates and wicked. They won't repent and don't care.

The righteous repent and try not to sin. They study sound doctrine and are obiedence to God.

Disobedience is the Reprobates.
Peace.

Yes, very strange! If God created the world in six days and the earth for only six thousand years, then how can we understand the fact that dinosaurs lay in the earth for millions of years!?

Though you may not be here anymore one thing to realize is that the Bible is not a history book and it’s not a science book. It’s a collection of stories redacted by different sects over thousands of years. It’s only the young earth creationist who reject the scientific consensus affirming the new modern synthesis. The fossil record is stacked according to speciation as basal forms take on divergent traits showcased within the superimposed geologic strata.

It’s also just those who believe in eternal conscious torment that believes they suffer forever.

You also have liberal Christians who recognize the contextual class to the story of Genesis and accepts science and universalism.

Christian theology teaches:

Bible theology teaches:

1. God created everyone ex nihilo. He brought into everyone from not existing to existence, designed each one of us from the ground up, loved us, and sent us to earth knowing exactly the decisions we would make.

Man was created on the earth, not sent from somewhere else to the earth.

2. Final judgement will result in the righteous in heaven and the wicked burning in Hell. Both being for eternity.

Final judgment will result in the righteous living eternally with God and with the Messiah in the new earth and the wicked destroyed in the lake of fire, permanently ceasing to exist, the second death.
