The comparison to hell isn't valid and if you can't see the difference, you have the theology skills of a walrus.
Israel's judgment for rejecting Christ was fulfilled in AD 70.

The Father's on the back porch watching while sipping iced tea. We're alone in the sandbox boys and girls. Look out for the mean kid with the big shovel.

Christianity teaches that people will be killed/punished by the billions for rejecting Christ. Where is your outrage on that? lol

Like I said, "The theology skills of a Walrus."

So you're going to compare the innocent God-fearing mother of 3, who herself never rejected Christ and was never presented Christ, with eternal punishment of the guilty?

Walrus.

God always gives a positive. He gives a warning. God never let judgement fall with no warning. The plagues in Revelation are nasty. But they are put in writing for a reason.

After the holocaust, many Jews migrated back to Israel and 1948 the nation was re started.

Re: Why Did God Allow the Holocost to Happen?

All of mankind is infected with a spiritual disease called "sin". The Gospel is the cure. We will reach many with this cure. Many will reject the cure and enter eternity forever twisted and marred by the disease. Many will never have a chance to receive the cure and will therefore suffer the same fate.

Reach as many as you can before it's too late.

lol, I was merely comparing someone thinking a group of people were punished for rejecting God

with

someone else thinking another group of people are going to be punished for rejecting God.

If one is true, then it is plausible for the other to be true.

If all else fails, though, let this self-portrait of myself comfort you...

True Christians submit. They do not set the terms.
The atheists often set conditions which a God must meet. It doesn't work out.
