That is a keeper! I'm saving this for future reference.
It has always seemed obvious to me that hell is a removal of God’s protection. The Bible clearly states that he wishes it for no one. However, He is a person who respects the decisions of others. There is life with God or life without God, there isn’t any other place to go...just with or without. If after repeated and desperate pleadings and after Jesus willingly and with full pre-knowledge allowed himself to be tortured to death so we wouldn’t have to pay the penalty, what else can God do? He created mankind with free will..He won’t retract that gift. I really get so tired of people blaming God for ‘sending people to hell.’
