Hi Arelene
I have always wondered about someone going to hell. Even without going through the Hebrew and Greek a general reading of the scriptures no doubt let's us know there is a hell and that a lot of people are going to end up there. Who are we to question the Creator. I wish there was no hell. And i do not mean you personally when I ask" who are we", I mean any of us.
 
But the Good News is that God gave us a FREE GIFT to avoid that place of torment. I do not know how God will let a person KNOW the decision that person needs to make to avoid hell. So many people always ask me how the people in third world countries hear about Jesus. Has everyone heard the simple message of salvation for today? Probably not, but I know that God is fair and just and that in some way each person has that decision made known to him by God on where he/she will spend eternity. I decided a long time ago that I could not worry about the entire world. That is what God does.We have enough "church goers" being fooled that need to hear the plain and simple Gospel of Grace right here in our communties. Satan has gotten in to the churches and taught a lie about being "good enough" to obtain salvation.
 
The people who go to the Hebrew and Greek are just trying to justify their beliefs. Just because someone thinks he is smarter than God or than anyone else does not make it so.The Bible is pretty clear on everything. He has given every single person a chance to live in heaven for eternity. Each person must decide wheter he/she will accept that FREE GIFT.
 
Ephesians 1
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
 
A person hears the gospel, believes it and are sealed with the Holy Spirit.
 
And here is the Gospel
1 Corinthians 15
1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
 
So the Apostle Paul tells us a person hears and if he believes then he is saved. The Gospel a person must hear, believe, and be saved is that Christ died and was buried and rose on the third day.
 
Pretty easy Gospel. Why so easy? Because God loves us so much that he wants as many saved that is possible. It is not possible for man to save himself or to keep himself saved. He has given us a time period where we do not have to prove our faith. That time period is coming to a close. After the rapture happens it will be much more painful to be saved. That does not mean people will not be saved after the rapture as I believe there will be too many to count being saved during the tribulation which is after the rapture. Satan wants people in hell with him just as much as God wants them in heaven. Satan has twisted the simple Gospel of Grace and turned it into a contest to see who can study the Greek and Hebrew and explain why they do not accept God's Word as given to us in the english language.Even the ones who think they are so smart will get different interpretation from the Greek and Hebrew as their collegues do.
 
Anyway, I know that everyone on five doves web-site has heard the plain teachings of scripture. I hope they are all saved by accepting this simple Gospel of Grace. It is the ONLY way to be saved today.
 
thanks
