In Revelation 21:5 we see the Lord creating all things [see Strongs # 3956, pas/panta] new. And we see in verse 4 that he ends all sorrow and every tear, as well as death. My God is a God that will eventually end all sin and suffering. My God will eventually subdue everything to himself (Philippians 3:21) and complete everything...(Colossians 1:20).. With the highest possible Lord this has to be the eventual state of things at the end of time, as we know it. With the above in mind why would anyone hold to a view that says 90 percent, or more, of people, will be roasting in an endless "hell"? God will have a clean universe eventually with no prisons or sinners. This has to be so if God takes away all tears and sorrow. If God torments a person for eternity then they are not reconciled! Sorry but the traditional view is not tenable or respectable at all! It will do no good for those that hold to the traditional view to quote Revelation 14:11 or Luke 16 (Richman and Lazarus)..for the word "eternal" is not actually in the Greek text of the first, and in Luke 16 we see a parable about a change in fortunes. The Richman is Judah, one of 6 sons of Leah, and the poor man is Abrahams faithful steward Eliezer (Genesis 24). People need to focus on the clear verses in scripture rather than verses that are less clear. Romans 6:23 plainly tells us that the wages of sin is DEATH (not life in torment), and that the believers get the highest life..Yeshua affirmed this in many ways. He indicated that evil ones might be destroyed in Gehenna (Matthew 10:28).. This is the theme through all Bible history, starting with Adam, and his return to dust and down through time. Yeshua came and took the exact penalty of death. He carried the sins of all the world yet did not burn in hell even a week. Why do some teach that the unsaved sinners will suffer more than Yeshua, the Messiah did. This is actually an insult to Christ..
As stated above..God will eventually end all sorrow and make all things perfect. Peace and completeness (divine Shalom) will prevail in the end of time. There is a special plan of the Lord being worked out right now. God is sovereign and anything that happens God has allowed to happen (good and bad things). God can make good out of bad things. I have taught that the best possible world is one in which sin and suffering exist for a season. This way all things can be completed.. Amen..

<p> "Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep."-Romans12:15.   The apostle Sha'ul (Paul) called us to a life of both weeping and rejoicing.  Paul challenged us to look beyond our own experiences and consider the plights and anguish of others.  He stated, "Rejoice with those that rejoice, and weep with those that weep." If we wish to be more God-like we must put ourselves in the shoes of others and practice empathy.  God perceives the pain and anguish of all.  We too must imitate the mind of God. God is able to work through all things to bring justice because he knows the inner being or heart of each person and thing. Reach out and lend a hand to others if it is within your power to do so..     Rev. Zomok  </p>
I have covered many aspects of the faulty doctrine of an eternal burning hell, logically pointing out that the penalty for sin is death (Romans 6:23) and how Yeshua came and suffered that very penalty. I have also logically argued that in the end of time God will have a perfect creation without sin, which could not be so if he were to sustain an eternal penal colony of lost souls roasting in a "hell". Such lost souls would be sustained sinners and not reconciled by any sane definition! I need not rehash here every aspect of the faulty doctrine of an eternal burning hell!!!
Last night I prayed for something new to point out and shortly thereafter noticed a new point. It stood out with new luster. I started to study about the fact that God is "longsuffering" in Numbers 14:18. In the Hebrew this is "long-faced" [Strong's H750 and H639]. The Hebrew is concrete in this case pointing at the sad long face of a suffering personality. I also wanted to see how the Septuagint translated this and found the Greek word, "makrothumia", which means "long-endurance" of pain and being patient with others.. [seeStrong's G3115]. The Hebrew and Greek work well together in touching all bases on what God experiences. He suffers with his creation!
There has been a debate on just how much God experiences pain. Under Greek philosophical influence the early church often held that God does not suffer and is basically above it all. The term "impassable" has often been used to describe God in this regard. God is supposedly "not emotional" or does not feel pain. Many theologians will label any verse that describes face, eyes, hands, and suffering of God "Anthropomorphisms" and "Anthropopathisms". In other words, God is described with human features (physical and mental) to help us understand certain points about the divine. I am persuaded when God is described with hands and face, for God is spirit, but not so persuaded about God not having certain mental and emotional attributes. If God is without emotions than God would be less understanding and could not see things fully. God is "passable" not "impassable". He truly loves the created world and all his creatures!!!
To wrap this up, because God is both omnipresent and omniscient (all knowing) he is both above his creation and within it. God is within everything, every single atom and particle. God sees out our very eyes and is in our very nerves. In him we move and have our being. God suffers what we suffer. God knows each of us better than we know ourselves, something required for a perfect and devine judge. NOW if God were to sustain unredeemed sinners in and endless fiery hell God would suffer with them because he would be sustaining them. Remember anything completely separated from God has no existence. God will have a perfect creation in the end where all is completed and reconciled, which cannot be so if God as well as most people suffer in hell forever. God would suffer with them and to some extent the redeemed would also knowing that their loved ones did not earn salvation..
It is time to put the unbiblical and illogical Traditional view of Hell in the catagory of fables where it truly belongs.
