How Could a Loving God Send Anyone to Hell?

Bible, Theology & Philosophy
Hell
Apologetics
Sin

“To understand the doctrine, we first need to ask if we believe in retributive justice. In other words, do we, as people who claim to be loving, believe that people guilty of horrifying, sickening acts of evil need to face punishment for what they have done? Or should Stalin, Hitler, and Pol Pot simply have been sent to reformatories to improve their behaviour?” - David de Bruyn
