The style and rhythm of Love Wins is so beautiful because Rob Bell has caught a vision for what God is doing from the beginning of the world through to the end.
Which makes me wonder: why do some Christians hold on to hell for “unbelievers”? What is attractive about a god who tortures people?
It seems to me that if Christians want to remain convinced in eternal conscious torment for the damned, they must do so reluctantly, against their own natural love for all peoples, and only through a great amount of wrestling, understanding that such a horrible truth must be embraced with great hesitation.
Nothing less comes very close to relishing the fate of “those other people.”
