They are not wrong.
You’re kidding, right?
Perhaps you should read the Bible?
"Go and sin no more." He wasn't confirming her in her vice when he got the mob off her; he saved her so she would amend her ways. What about the whip He braided Himself in order to drive the money changers from the temple? The tables he flipped? The Pharisees He continually admonished? ___
"You serpents, generation of vipers, how will you flee from the judgment of hell?" [Matthew 23:33] ___
___But I say to you, that whosoever is angry with his brother, shall be in danger of the judgment. And whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council. And whosoever shall say, Thou Fool, shall be in danger of hell fire." [Matthew 5:22]
_____Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the sea and the land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, you make him the child of hell twofold more than yourselves." [Matthew 23:15]
____And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out. It is better for thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God, than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire:" [Mark 9:46]
____Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there are who go in thereat." [Matthew 7:13]
____"He said therefore to the multitudes that went forth to be baptized by him: Ye offspring of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?" [Luke 3:7]
____And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty. [32] And all nations shall be gathered together before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats: [33] And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left. [34] Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world... [41] Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels. [Matthew 25]
_____And Scripture continues on: "Being filled with all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice, wickedness, full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, malignity, whisperers, [30] Detractors, hateful to God, contumelious, proud, haughty, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, [31]foolish, dissolute, without affection, without fidelity, without mercy. [32] Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they who do such things, are worthy of death; and not only they that do them, but they also that consent to them that do them." -Romans 1
"1 Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."
They are. Jesus did in fact call out sinners, what he never did was condemn them and that is the difference.
Hell should never come up in discussions with the lost. Christ was pretty ambiguous and for good reason.
But as far as what the expectation is, the rest of the post is right. We need to love people. Unconditionally. Judgement is for the Lord. They say the Lord works in mysterious ways and keeping accountability through non-believers seems like one such mysterious way.
Jesus called out the hypocrites who tried to pretend they were somehow holier than others.
Can you point out an example where this was not the case, and called out someone specifically because of their sin?
Greed, impurity, selfishness, unforgiveness, hatred, disobedience...
So, no?
Not one person Jesus rebuked and told them they were going Hell because of their sin"
Have to create strawmen arguments now and reply to questions I did not ask?
Sad.
