1) God does not desire for anyone to go to Hell and does not actively send people there. 2) According to the Bible, Hell exists, but people choose to go there of their own free will by rejecting God. 3) While God is loving, He is also just and holy. If people reject God and His laws, choosing to disobey Him, then they are responsible for the consequences of going to Hell. However, the choice is ultimately theirs.

1. How Can A Loving God Send
People to Hell?

2. John 6:37-40
37 All that the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes
to me I will not cast out.
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the
will of him who sent me;
39 and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing
of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.
40 For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son
and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up
at the last day.”

3. As you can see the Father has no
desire to see anyone go to Hell.
The Bible doesn’t say that God sends
anyone to hell but it does say there
is a hell.
The people who go to hell are not
sent by God.
Out of their own free will, their
personal choice, they choose to go
to hell on their own.
When we use the term “Loving
God,” we are only describing one
facet of His being.

4. Aside from loving we know
God to be righteous, just and
holy.
Righteousness means rewarded
expectations in relationships.
God expects us, his children,
to obey his laws if we do so
then we, the children, can
expect the reward of
everlasting life as a result of
obeying God’s law.
The opposite of righteousness
is evil, wicked, or wrong.

5. Justice is another of God’s
attributes.
If the speed limit sign reads 40
MPH and out of your own free
will you decided to travel 60
MPH it would only be just for
you to receive a speeding
ticket.
The speeding ticket can be
viewed in two ways.
1. The government, or in this
case the police, are punishing
you for your decision.
2. The government, or the police
are attempting to save your life
and the lives of those around
you.
When you decided to speed,
consciously or not, you also
accepted the possibility of being
caught and then dealing with the
consequences of your actions.
When you decided to turn your back
on God and God’s laws, to live
your life on your own terms,
consciously or not, you accept the
possibility of going to hell as a
result.

6. Only you decided to speed, only you
decided to disobey, only you
decided to disrespect God, and
only you are responsible for the
consequences of your actions
(Lev. 24:10-23).
Lastly, God is holy.
Holy is used over 900 times in the
Bible and holiness means the
cutting off or separation from
what is unclean and what is pure.
Do you think God's going to bring
you into His presence when you
have ignored
Him and turned your back upon
Him? No. He is a holy God (Rev.
21:27).
Only you decided not to live up to
God’s standards how can you
possibly expect a loving, just and
holy God to extend an invitation
to His heavenly home when you
have done everything in your
power to be undeserving?
No, our loving God doesn’t
condemn or send anyone to hell,
we have to accomplish that by
ourselves.

7. From the Second Letter of Paul to
the Corinthians 2 verses15 and
16
15 To God we are the fragrance of
Christ, both among those who are
being saved and among those
who are on the way to
destruction;
16 for these last, the smell of death
leading to death, but for the first,
the smell of life leading to life.
