Or is he just a gutless coward that enjoys smelling the smoke of the eternal firey torment of mere mortals?
i mean, what is the christian God so afraid off that He will lash out so violently on people.
christians that dont believe in a hell dont answer, you dont read your bible properly.

God is not willing that any should perish(burn in hell), but that all should go to Heaven, Nirvana, whatever you want to call it. Salvation is free, the bible fosters independent thinking, do not confuse salvation with religion. Two entirely different things.
BTW, would you want to subject yourself to prison, just to see what it's like, or do you prefer to stay within the law and keep your freedom?

The Eternal God bore our sins in His Body on the tree/cross ... in those dread hours on Calvary He endured eternal damnation so that He could offer us Redemption; to provide us a means by which we can stand before a Holy, Righteous, and Just God.
What do you mean by "i mean, what is the christian God so afraid off that He will lash out so violently on people. ".
What more can He do than He has done? He came down from the Glory, walked among His own people who rejected Him (and I do NOT mean just the Jews; rather, all peoples), suffered the agony of the Crucifixion AND He, the holy and pure and sinless One bore our sins in His Body ... being fully human though sinless, He was able to take the place of another; being Eternal God He was able to bear an eternity of punishment due us. in those hours on Calvary.
And He offers us the Gift of Eternal Life.
And yet you say "that He will lash out so violently on people.".
He offers you Eternal Life. You have read the Good News. If you reject it, then whose fault is it? His?? No. Yours?? Yes.

To be trouble-free, contemporary people have purely been around for extra or less 2 hundred,000 to 250,000 years, yet this nonetheless skill that on the final God waited for 244,000 to 194,000 years earlier "revealing" himself. via what we easily understand roughly history, it would be extra like 3300 years in the past whilst the Jewish way of existence became forming and particular closer to 2600 years in the past whilst they stopped worshiping a goddess besides and whilst the faster books of the Bible have been compiled.

God created hell, as a place for Satan and his followers. And because Satan knows that he's defeated he is going to try and take as many people with him as possible by lying and saying tht there is no hell. And people believe him.
God is not a gutless coward. He has alot more power than we could ever imagine. And he is not afraid. He loves you, and me, he loves us so much that he sent his son Jesus to die on the cross taking our sins into the pit of hell, so that all we have to do to accept his free gift of salvation is to reach out and accept it.
I do belive in hell, and I'm living my life according to God's teachings so I don't have to spend eternity in there.
I pray that you will learn the truth and turn away from these lies of Satan.
God Bless

You don't read the Bible properly.....or any other spiritual book. If you had studied religion (all forms, not just one particular one) and spirituality, you would not ask such a truly assinine question. God is a spirit, a devine entity, a Supreme Being of such magnificence and perfection that words cannot describe.
It is not God (or what ever name you choose for the Devine Power) that imposes suffering and damnation on mankind. It is mankind itself.

You have seen the PASSION (mels movie) right?
You nor I could withstand THAT MUCH, for even a short amount of time without some bitterness.
Yet Godhimself(Jesus in the flesh) cried out to the Father to forgive them for they know not what they do.
*IT IS IN REGARDS TO YOUR VERY QUESTION HERE IRONICALLLY!!!
IF.....PEOPLE COULD GRASP ETERNITY, THEY WOULD TRY WITH ALL THEIR HEART,SOUL, AND MIND, AND STRENGTH TO OBEY AND LOVE JESUS......for making a way of escape from impending judgement.
FREEWILL IS OUR GIFT GIVEN, TO CHOOSE ARE NOT TO CHOOSE TO FOLLOW A LOVING AND RISEN SAVIOR.
-Hope you consider YOUR OWN EXISTANCE, MORE THAN ALL OF US CHRISTIANS OUT HERE. its up to you now though.
GODBLESS as you seek the truth. -LIVE4TRUTH

Hebrews 4:15
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin.

Just because you don't believe in Hell does not mean it doesn't exist. Also God created people - He can do what He wants. But he loves you and made a way to be saved from a second death and Hell - Jesus - who is the Way, Truth and the Life - choose Jesus and live the abundant life. Blessings.

hell is a creation of pagans
the God of the Bible clearly stated that the punishment for disobedience, was death. Defined? God says that the dead are dust.
Concious of nothing at all. And that their debt has been paid.
Hellfire and eternal torment are lies that were born of Satan.

I say that you don't read the Bible properly because if you did, you would not be asking this ridicuous question in the first place.
