Why Did God Allow the Holocost to Happen?

[Aquila]

Remember, there are three Christian views regarding the fate of the "lost".

1.) The lost are eternally cut off from God and suffer in the outer darkness, burning in the lake of fire forever. (Eternal Damnation)

2.) The lost are eternally destroyed and cease to exist. (Eternal Destruction)

3.) The lost are punished by God in the lake of fire, the flames of which are a purifying force that prunes the soul of all sin and self, preparing it to enter into the eternal state that God purchased for that soul via the cross of Calvary. (Christian Universalism)

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...

The Amelekites were ordered destroyed by God for messin with the Jews.
King Saul was fired over the deal.

Stick around and I'll show you some worthwhile comebacks. That one wasn't very good.
