If you’re a Christian, you probably grew up thinking that Hell is a place of eternal conscious torment. That the damned will live consciously in Hell for an infinite amount of time. It may surprise you to learn that there are different views on the nature of Hell. The Traditional view teaches the infinite kind of Hell. Another view, called Annihilationism, teaches that the damned do not live forever. Since they are not “in Christ,” they do not receive the gift of eternal life and will (at some point) cease to exist. Today’s discussion features a structured debate on what the Bible teaches about Hell. Does it teach the Traditional view or the Annihilationist view? James Martin is defending the former, and Chris Date the latter. More info about our guests can be found below.

This live discussion is hosted on YouTube. It’s completely free to watch. Click on the YouTube link in the embedded video below and subscribe to our channel if you’d like to participate in the live chat (or click here).

As an atheist, I find a significant objectivity-limiting factor in a debate like this. Each side feels they must reconcile their view with everything in the bible. Given how false and implausible bible inerrancy is, it might make better sense to say the bible doesn’t teach consistently about God’s “need” for justice. the fact that such a methodology might open a theological Pandora’s box might be the consequences we are required to endure for the sake of being honest.
