Talking "nice" is not always "love".
Was Jesus mean and judgmental when he warned that one sin not overcome could cost one their life in Hell Fire?
Mark 9:43-48
9:43 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire, 9:44 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ 9:45 If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched— 9:46 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ 9:47 If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire, 9:48 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’*
Was Jesus mean and judgmental? No! He was a man of love and peace. Yet he recognized that sin.....was against the Fathers will. He was first and foremost a lover of his Father.
He knew the wrath of God was coming against sin he came to save sinners. He did not care if they were religous sinners or worldly sinners. He knew they would face destruction in Gehenna Fire.
When we warn people today to flee from sin we are not trying to hurt their feelings. We are trying to help build them up in the faith to be overcomers that they may enter the Heavenly Kingdom.
To point out sins and inconsistencies is necessary. Sometimes it may come through mean, judgmental hypocrites. Nonetheless if the shoe fits wear it.
The goal for us all is to be like Jesus. God is love. God is a consuming fire. Let us offer HIM our lives to do his will. Perhaps we can also help someone else along the way.
