Why did God Create People whom He knew would go to Hell / John MacArthur

[@SSNBN777]

Listen at 0:49 "You can either believe in Him, or not believe in Him" Exactly what free will choice is, and it corresponds with all of Scripture. Believe in the Gospel, and you will be saved by God, not of your own will, but by His.

I used to ask this question myself but then I realized God isn't going to withhold the possibility of some going to Heaven for the sake of those who reject him and go to hell. Those who go to hell are doing so based on their own accord anyway so God isn't to blame. I found the parable of the wheat and the tares to be EXTREMELY helpful when answering this question. (Matthew 13:27-30) In summary of this parable Jesus is saying if you take away all the tares (unbelievers/ evil doers ) from the field you might uproot the wheat ( believers/ those who will come to Christ) with them. Both grow together and even those who choose to reject Christ still in some way play a role in those people lives who will come to Christ.

Then why not create them at all if you knew most of ur children would suffer imaginable pain for eternity or either not create them at all I wouldn’t create them

@@mos_daivar2211 that question pre-supposes that hell is being described literally in the Bible. We don’t necessarily know if hell is literally a torture chamber or if it is simply separation from God. I guess some questions aren’t meant for humans to fully understand. But that of course doesn’t discredit God’s holiness as he calls himself perfect and God cannot lie

Not throwing all christians under the bus but this sounds borderline psychopathic. The lack of empathy you must have to defend a God creating someone only for them to be damned and have the worst punishment as possible is insanity
