And Hells come back to haunt me

[Godscreated]

but as you may know, Christ spend an eternity in hell for each person so they could avoid it.

That doesn't make sense. If he spent an eternity in hell, then he is there now and he always will be. He cannot have spent an eternity for each person, since an eternity is basically forever.

The Bible tells us he was dead for three days and a half. That's not an eternity. And for an eternal being, that amount of time is not even the blink of an eye. And it's remarkably unfair for that same being to condemn others to an eternity of punishment.

Why is it unfair for God to punish for an eternity, would it actually be fair to reward for eternity and then not punish for eternity?

By the end I was concrete in my opinion that God 'May' Exist but if he does we are all pretty much fucked as he Isn't very stable minded.

I came to a similar realization late into my Christian life. This is most likely the reason so many pick and choose what they read out of the bible.

How is it you believe that Christians pick and choose what they read from scripture? Are you judging others by what you practiced?

They want to believe in the more loving, forgiving 'New Testament' God that'll let you in for being a good person. Not the brutal OT God that has no problem smiting you for speaking out against him and not having to defend himself because he's the creator of all things.

In another thread I mentioned I did not think you had learned much while you were in church, this above statement you made reassures me of that. The whole statement is wrong.

But if hell is the only reason one worships God then it's not faith nor does it have anything to do with faith. It's fear and that is a terrible foundation for any relationship.

I agree, fear is no way to have a relationship and, Jesus shows us that love and peace are the foundation of a relationship with God.
