If God sends non-Christians to Hell, why doesn't he give us scientific evidence that it's true?

Question

I have heard the above argument from people and here is my response:

He DOES give us evidence. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit you are filled with a feeling that is so strong that you cannot deny it. This feeling is from God.

God is on a whole other plain than us. He does not communicate in the same way we do. We cannot even begin to comprehend Him entirely now, nor could we ever hope to.

But the feeling that you get in your heart let's you know this isn't just something that is coming from within. The feeling is indescribable.

Imagine if you met someone that had never had salt before and you had to describe to them what it tasted like. You could say it's not sweet. It's not bitter, but this is what it doesn't taste like. Try telling someone what it IS.

It is not always easy to feel the spirit, because Satan tempts us, but we must keep the faith and be strong.

Agree?

Answer 1

I do agree... It "is" called faith.... Faith in God.

Answer 2

Take this one bit at a time.

The feeling is induced by what whould be more accurately called brain washing. Have you ever heard of the Gastalt method. It does the same thing.

This other plane is another way of evading the truth. You just have to believe as they say. Believe in what? and there is the same answer just believe. So he comunicates differently than we do you say? Sorry that is just another way for the few to have control over the many by claiming to receive the word from god. If one can talk to god then all can. That is if there is such a diety.

The feeling in the heart just might be a heart attack and that is rather indescribable. Again the mind can cause the body to have any feelings the mind wants. If you are convinced then the mind will do. Nothing to do with a god at all. Just ask those that led germany in the thirties.

What salt tastes like is about as much of a cop oout as anything can get. You surely could have found something better as an example. You are only quoting. We and even you should know that salt is part of us and we taste it even if we think we do not eat it. Religion teaches not to think but just do as told and you have fallen for it hook line and....

Now it is time for satan I see. No it is not Satan at all that tempts you. This is yourself knowing there are other things and ways out there and you have some doubts about what you think you are suposed to believe. That satan is you and no other. This applies to all that believe there is a god and satan.

You know by now that I do not agree at all. In fact I have shown you that it is not so and even then you will deny the truth because of religion. Religion teaches by fear and does not allow for people to think for them selves. The fear becomes hate and hate becomes violence.

Religion and I am talking about all of them are the origins of most of the conflicts with humans.

So far there is nothing to replace it with.

Answer 3

There is no where in the bible that talkes about God sending you to hell. There is three places in the bible, that you might see the word hell. You have to read the scripture to see what it pertains to. Hell it self is a hole in the ground(grave), every one goes there when they die, if you read you will see, Jesus spend three days and three nights there, and then was risen. The second place,Hades > the ever lasting fire, this is were all sinner, that has not repented, are going to burn and die. the third place, is a place of restrain, where God send the demons.
There are people that pretend they have the spirit, but they are just dancing in the flesh. You have to be one with Jesus Christ to receive the spirit. God do not indeclinable sent His spirit out.
You do not see God's true people, every where you look , His people are on the lest traveled narrow road, in a temple or builden where the true church meets. to worship the true God.

Answer 4

Hell, Sheol, the grave of mankind ... all the same thing.
There is no place in the Bible that says you go to a fiery, burning hell if you are not a Christian.

Psalm 146:4 says: "His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish."

Only God can reveal what happens after people die, and he has done so in his written Word, the Bible. This is what the Bible says: "As the [beast] dies, so the [man] dies; and they all have but one spirit . . . All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust." (Ecclesiastes 3:19, 20) There is no mention here of a fiery hell. Humans return to dust—to nonexistence—when they die.

In order to be tormented, a person has to be conscious. Are the dead conscious? Once again, the Bible gives the answer: "The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten." (Ecclesiastes 9:5) It is impossible for the dead, who are "conscious of nothing at all," to experience agony anywhere.

Answer 5

It is not Satan that tempts us, but different opinions on what that "feeling" is, which is entirely subjective. Do you realize that what you feel in your heart is really the work of a system of neurons in your brain?

What you think is the truth others see as imaginary, and until there is actual proof they will continue to hold different opinions.

I was once Christian so that tactic will not work on me. Because I already felt the "Spirit" in me, then later realized I was wrong.

Answer 6

I totally agree. You're preaching to the choir!

I also feel that people are overlooking the obvious when they ask for scientific evidence. Science, in general, is very exacting. Everything has an order and a purpose. Everything in life is so specific and individualistically unified. How can you not believe in God when you view science?

Answer 7

nicely, by way of fact the bible does say that the sole thank you to heaven is thru Jesus...nicely, you get the float. And christians many times state all non-believers are damned. grow to be God's plot to "withhold empirical evidence" hatched on an identical time he "planted fossils in the international to attempt our faith?" Whatta nut! And an egomaniac apparantly, insisting on adulation without offering evidence of his existence. Your leg-becoming occasion is stupid for one, undesirable philosophical argument for 2, and apparantly an occasion of what might desire to easily be suggested as a "parlor trick". i'm a ethical, regulation-abiding, compassionate patriot and citizen of the international, and that i comprehend i do no longer deserve hell despite if it existed. How unhappy your god has you browbeaten into thinking you do.

Answer 8

No, I don't agree.

Do you honestly think that there would be atheists if we were all filled with the feelings of the Holy Spirit? There is no feeling like that--either you Christians are deluded or you've got indigestion.

Answer 9

Because God is a tool. Literally. lol

What I mean is that some people use God as a tool for something they don't yet understand and that explanation that God did it becomes dogma. And when evidence comes along that refutes the dogma there is always resistance but science will always win due to the scientifc method. That is why the Earth revolves around the sun, the Earth is spherical and life evolves.

Answer 10

Disagree

Answer 11

I believe in Christ because the eyewitness testimony of his life, ministry, and miracles recorded in the gospels is convincing to me. It's not simply a subjective feeling devoid of factual evidence. Hey, but that's just me.
