“Infinite hell contradicts infinite love. Finite hell, however, does not.”
You have an unbalanced view of God if you only know of His love for He is also a God of wrath. The Scriptures do not teach God has infinite love for rebels. They do, however, teach of an eternal Hell.
I believe the teachings of an eternal hell are incorrect. I believe they are historical manipulations of genuine teachings for political purposes.
Infinite love is infinite - it has no equal, no opposite and nothing outside of itself. That's not an imbalanced understanding - infinity is not imbalanced. It is everything.
Not to mention that a human being simply cannot do enough wrong in any number of lifetimes, let alone one, to deserve infinite hell, under any system of law except that of a homicidal maniac. And God is not a homicidal maniac.
I don't think anything is lost in my understanding of justice. God is not mocked. Hell lasts as long as it has to, which I imagine is until the complete destruction of the spirit of evil on a person, no matter how long that takes.
How could a God of love continue a person's time in hell, once that spirit of evil in them had been destroyed by hell?
Hell certainly is eternal
Revelation 14:
[9] And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
[10] The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
[11] And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Those that want to imagine Hell out of existence need to read their Bible wayyy more.
