This is the best way that I can describe those who are so quick to condemn souls to hell.
Their words... no matter how well intended, are just empty words if they don't reach out with compassion.

Bad analogy. A better analogy would be the Emporer's new clothes. They think they are clothed in salvation but they are on their way to hell.
Who says we shouldn't tell someone they are on their way to hell? IF that is the only witness line, no it won't be successful. But you can't broadbrush that no one should be informed of their respective destinations.
Now let's hug everyone and give them a Joel Osteen clinic! He doesn't tell ANYONE about doctrine or prospective destinations.
