BARDS Stated on his POD cast 5-7-21 Fishers of Men that "God does not use fear to bring people to God" The prophets in the old testament were given the word of God to proclaim Gods judgement if people did not turn from their wicked ways and return to him whole heartedly. I think BARDS should rephrase his statement and correct himself.

I understand you have a strong opinion on this but it is not fear that draws people to our Father, it is His TRUTH, and His love. If you use fear that is a religious thing but it is not based on God's word. Neither is eternal hellfire-as in burning forever. When the soul dies, it is gone forever, spiritually cremated, if you will. That is churchianity teaching to make people obey like whipped dogs.
There is scripture study to back what I say but most Christians don't want to hear it or research it. Many seem so fond of eternal torture. God is a just God but He doesn't torture. Otherwise, why was He so appalled at His children burning their children in the fire?
Isaiah 34 pretty much lays it our.
