Hearing about Jesus isn't enough hell almost everyone has heard of the guy and most believe him to be a great teacher and philosipher. That's not enough to hear of something, for example if I want to be a poker pro and hear of all the techniques and style of play that doesen't make me a pro exactly does it. You have to study gain exp, play and have success. That's the same concept but you must acknowledge cognitively that you have broken God's law and will be guilty therefore accepting in God's act of Love which would be Jesus and calvary. Once you do that then you are free from a life of hell(seperation from god)
I want to ask you some basic questions. I am sure you have some explanation.
What makes you think that there is Hell?
Why should one spend his life in anticipation of attaining Heaven(existence of which is not verifiable)?
Why should I trust the Bible?
If you say that Bible says so, aren't you trusting one source too much? When talking about TOE, creationists reject it coz it has inconsistencies. Isn't that true for the Bible too? All the scientific facts are verifiable to some extent,nothing much in the Bible is verifiable if at all.
What makes you think that there are laws that God expects us to follow? Again,do u have more than once source to support that claim?
If something happens tomorrow and God comes to earth to refute the Bible and Christianity, would you begin to believe in some other religion that God tells you to?
What evidence you have of a GOD existing?(Don't refer to the bible, its not the same as 2+2=4)
