What happens to the gospel when eternal judgment gets edited out? We tackle that question head-on after a prominent voice claims hell isn’t eternal. We don’t chase controversy for its own sake; we chase clarity. The stakes are spiritual and practical: if sin ends in nonexistence, why did Christ bear wrath on the cross, and why should holiness matter now? Walking through Scripture, we show why “everlasting life” and “everlasting fire” carry the same weight, why the cross satisfies justice because of who Jesus is, and why finite rebels can’t exhaust an infinite debt.

We also talk about platforms and responsibility. Influence multiplies ideas, including bad ones. When public teachers move the goalposts on judgment, it doesn’t change God’s plan, but it does confuse hearts. That’s where discipleship must rise. We outline a fuller way to share the gospel—naming not just that Jesus saves, but what he saves us from. We trace the logic of divine justice, explore the images of wailing and gnashing of teeth as ongoing defiance, and explain why annihilationism undercuts God’s holiness, righteousness, and love.

Throughout, we keep the tone pastoral and urgent. We grieve where we must and hold the line where Scripture speaks plainly. If you’ve wrestled with questions like “Does eternal punishment fit the crime?” or “How does the cross satisfy wrath?” you’ll find careful answers rooted in the infinite worth of Christ and the coherence of biblical teaching. Join us as we aim for courage, clarity, and compassion—correcting error, strengthening faith, and calling the church to clear-eyed discipleship.
