Another wonderful and enriching conversation. Thank you both!

I had this dream when I was a teenager at a time when I didn’t know scriptures and I never went to church. In the dream I died and I ended up in this place of utter darkness and just internal torment. I seemed to be all alone and I finally cried out to Jesus to forgive me and instantly I was next to this angel who started to explain things to me. I years later became a born again believer and would just be so overwhelmed with despair for the idea of God creating all these lives to just either annihilate them or eternally remove them from his presence in a agony. I would come across verses that would put opposition to my idea of eternal separation. I started exploring this topic and spent many years just not attending church at all. I recently started going again to a non denominational church but I just couldn’t sit there and nod my head to things that I couldn’t believe. Do I found the Orthodox church, and found the church fathers and now Father Aidan among others. I feel the Orthodox Church is correct but I don’t believe in eternal separation.

In Adam all died and in Christ all shall live and every knee shall bow. The people in darkness now will experience restorative punishment. His 8 (small part interview with Louis Abbott) is excellent.

When all is said and done, we will find ourselves all there in the Resurrection & the Life! For nothing can truly be separate from His undying love for us!

Gary goes through the history of how hell crept into the church. He was a former alcoholic and atheist and became a scholar seeking truth

[@ChristinaB.777]

Tentmaker 777 channel and the late Gary Amirault explain this very well too. The early church fathers were universalists. The hell doctrine is totally pagan. And then you see verses differently too like the adulterers and fornicators and so on shall not inherit the kingdom of heaven. Yeah….heavy sin in a ministry will not manifest the gifts of the spirit of healing etc in the kingdom of heaven here….here on earth

[@ChristinaB.777]

It also leaves others salvation up to us. And many people turn away from hell breathing ugly Christianity. Because it is ugly and judgemental and the fruit of that spirit is hate Yes….what is the real gospel!!!
