Who Sends a Man, Ultimately to Hell???
The Bible says in 1 John 4:8, and 1 John 4:16, God Is Love! So, Does a Loving God Really Sends Man to Hell?
In John 1:9 we read that He is the True Light. In John 4:24 we read that He is the Spirit and Truth. In Leviticus 19:2 we that that is Holy.
Now, if God is Holy, Light, Truth, Spirit, and LOVE, is it really God who sends a man to Hell? The answer emphatically is NO, it man himself who ignorantly, deliberately, and defiantly send himself to hell! Because God made man with a free Will to choose, and not a robot!.
God, by His Loving Nature, even after the fall tried to redeem man back to Himself to have man fellowship with Him and worship Him. Since all men were sinners, and He knew a sinful man CANNOT redeem and pay for another sinful man's sin, He made Himself in the form of a man and became the God-Man and took man's place, and paid for man's sin! Now, THAT IS LOVE! 1 Timothy 3:16; Philippians 2:5-11; cf. Isiah 45:23 KJV, to name a few tells us that.
The critics usually argue that at times the bible says that God hardens man's heart, so how could it be that it is man's fault for refusing God?.
For one, like in the case of Pharaoh alone, God gave him numerous opportunities through ten miracles to repent, but, he refused. By refusing man makes his own heart harder and harder every opportunity that he refuses, consequently, it is man himself who is making his own heart hard, not God. Look at it like this. the most commonly used metaphor preachers usually use, the example CLAY AND THE ICE CUBE THE SAME SUN WHICH HARDENS CLAY, MELTS THE ICE CUBE!
