We could start by recognizing that hell does not exist and never has it been depicted in the old or new testament within the original text. Yep, it was a completely made up fiction by 3rd and 4th century Christian leaders through the Vulgate translation. The Vulgate was the first translation from the original Hebrew and Greek in too Latin. Out of this translation we have derived much of the modern translations. Only recently have some modern translations begun to undo some of the misrepresentations of early translations.
I don't think I mentioned hell, maybe this post was meant for another. I asked you to pick a specific scripture that you believe has been "maligned" (from the list I attached) and we can discuss it.
Looking for your post now. I didn’t see any quoted scripture.
