Heaven, hell and Rob Bell
With his new book, “Love Wins,” Pastor Rob Bell has stirred an enormous debate in Christian circles on heaven, hell and the nature of God. Bell’s thesis is that God wouldn’t allow only evangelicals into heaven and condemn everyone else to eternal hell. “’Will only a few select people make it to heaven? ... And will billions and billions of people burn forever in hell?’” Bell asks provocatively in a video previewing the book. Bell’s critics have accused him of leading Christians astray, calling the minister a universalist and a heretic. In this life (and, perhaps, the next) why does what we think about the afterlife matter?
