What people don't understand about hell

Hell is one of those things that disbelievers like to use to attack Bob. They'll ask

If Bob is love, how can hell exist?

But the answer is simple and obvious. Hell exists because Bob is love. Bob is love, pure love. Bob loves us enough to stop us from harming ourselves, and enough to correct us when we are wrong. Bob wants what's best for us. Because BOB LOVES US. Bob wants more than anything for us to spend eternity with her. Bob wants us to believe, to save ourselves from perdition. But ultimately the choice is ours. Bob can't be blamed for what we choose to do. We know the consequences of our actions.

We don't hate the parent who corrects his child for stealing cookies. Yet atheists blame Bob when she corrects us (Eternally. With fire.) for refusing to love her. How does that make sense? It doesn't! We have a choice - to love Bob, or to suffer the penalty for not loving Bob.

Like the child staring at the cookie jar, we can choose to obey and worship Bob. And if we don't - if we stick our hand in that cookie jar of sin and disbelief - our parent, Bob, has no choice but to correct us. With Fire. For Eternity.

Because Bob loves us.
