Quote:And to those who believe in eternal torment: Why would God do something like that?God doesn't want us in eternal torment. That's why he sent his son Jesus to die in our stead. By giving into our selfish desires we choose and deserve eternal torment. But he takes our sentence and gives us eternal life. All we have to do is accept the gift.
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life." Romans 6:23
"If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
