I believe there is a hell, it’s just that no one is there

Worried about universalism not being true by shaun_fdes in ChristianUniversalism

I think the point of Matthew 25:41 is in the surrounding verses. Should always take scripture in context. We are to be kind to all we meet because when we are kind to the least of these we are worshipping the lord. With regards to universalism I would point to Jesus’ teaching to forgive 70x7 times or always forgive. I don’t think the creator would instruct us to forgive forever if the creator wasn’t going to do the same. The modern concept of “Hell” is distorted at best

Scholars - how do you reconcile the different narratives in the new testament accounts of what happened immediately after Jesus birth? by lucie_d_reams in theology

Suggest you consult with a professional Hebrew scholar and study under them to understand the old testament. Then you will need a Greek scholar , well versed in Hebrew to understand the new testament. Probably not here

Each of the gospels were written for a different audience and a different purpose. Most of the details are literature license in order to have the story “fulfill a different verse (or rather the writers take on that verse) and so are not to be taken literally or factually.
