What Does The Bible Project Teach About Hell?

The Bible Project is one of the most popular Bible teaching sites on the web, but that does not mean they're sound.

Listen to what they say about hell. Whatever hell is, God didn't make it. Hell is something that humans have created.

Really? Humans created hell? In Matthew 25, 41, Jesus says, Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire, prepared for the devil and his angels.

Prepared by whom? Not us. Verse 46 says the unrighteous will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.

No one in the Bible talked about hell more than Jesus, and he said it's a place where the worm never dies and the fire is never quenched.

The Son of Man will send his angels to throw the unrepentant into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

But the Bible Project says, Hell, and that word and what that refers to, it's not someplace other than heaven and earth.

It's a place where people are sustained by God's mercy and care, but God allows them the dignity of not being in a relationship with him if they don't want.

Hell is a place of God's mercy and care? No. Hell is God's wrath, poured out on the wicked forever.

Rejecting God is not dignified, it's damnable. The only way to be snatched from the flames is to worship

Jesus Christ. He talked about hell so much so you would not go there, so you would turn to him and be saved.

This soft teaching from The Bible Project will lead people you -know -where. Avoid it when we understand the text.
