Pope: Hell No—God Doesn’t Punish Sinners Forever, But Read The Fine Print

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In his latest variance from tradition, Pope Francis said sinners were not subject to an eternity of punishment, https://www.yahoo.com/news/does-hell-exist-pope-francis-155354139.html

This is a true picture of God who has “no pleasure in the death of the wicked” but it overlooks the fine print—there will be a “Great White Throne” judgment when even the wicked are resurrected to see the love of Christ for their soul that they rejected to walk in their own way and when every knee to acknowledge His love and justice, those who were impenitent will be burned up as it says in Malachi 4:1.

That is not eternal torment, but the results are for all eternity, a loss to them for what they might have enjoyed in a new heaven and new earth after God purifies earth. It has nothing to do with a man-made New World Order when the pope will be in charge, as seen in the imagery of a harlot riding the beast in Revelation 17.

But the pope’s break from tradition is interesting. Maybe scaring people to pay the priest to get their loved out out of hell or purgatory is not working as well as in the Dark Ages, or maybe the pope wants to be perceived as a good guy as king of Babylon, Rev 17.

The papacy signed a concordat with Hitler to assist him and in return, the world was to be Catholic when Hitler won World War II. So with the pope’s view of hell, Hitler gets off free with no punishment for the millions he murdered in gas chambers?

No, God is a God of justice as well as of mercy. He will forgive if we seek repentance, but He will not be excusing Hitler nor rebellion on our part.

It will be trouble for us if we reject God’s love letter (the Bible) as the pope has when he called it a dangerous book (it exposes the papal system used by Satan to deceive the world, (Rev 13:3,4 refers to Protestant Reformation)  

That ‘beast’ (New World Order government in Revelation 13) is an image or look-alike to the amalgamation of the four beasts from Daniel 7 that the papacy has survived. The Protestant Reformers were united in their belief that the little horn of Dan 7:25 represented the papacy.

Those “Protestant” church now side with the “Mother of Harlots” whom they no longer protest and will share in the destiny seen in Dan 7:11; Rev 17:16.

      I guess the antipapa Francis never heard of Gehenna. Unless he changes his ways, he will become familiar with it for eternity!

      Purgatory is yet ANOTHER lie! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purgatory

      It’s not found ANYWHERE in the Bible!

      • CTrent33

        It’s more of Apostolic Tradition, but here is an allusion:

        Luke 12: 59 “I say to thee, thou shalt not go out thence, until thou pay the very last mite.“

    • CTrent33

      “Maybe scaring people to pay the priest to get their loved out out of hell or purgatory is not working…”

      When someone goes to hell. they stay there. That has always been Church teaching. Indulgences get souls out of purgatory faster and can be gained by prayer. Money is not required.

      “The papacy signed a concordat with Hitler to assist him and in return, the world was to be Catholic when Hitler won World War II.”

      God doesn’t torture the damn forever. The torment is a consequence of being outside of Gods presence. Which will be extremely tormenting. Hell and the lack of fire does and will not have Gods presence. He won’t see what is going on though He has and knows. Outside of His presence there is nothing good there because good and that which is good doesn’t appear there. Like comfort of moisture in your mouth or memories or the feeling of breathing. If people would just understand instead of going straight to ridicule they might see that they are wrong about God being the bad guy as a lot of foolish skeptics like to rant about. The truth will set you free. Without salvation you are not free and gain it, grow with it and the true truth will become clearer. Eventually you will not just be a believer but a knower. Those that haven’t accepted salvation will not see some of the deeper truths of God. They will think everything is hunkie dorie all the way to their grave and that’s when they will learn that they can’t even have hope of not being damned. It irreversible. Better find God before you die is all I can say! Don’t even believe the fear porn lie because God doesn’t warn to scare but to warn of consequences that are inevitable without salvation. If you want to go to hell then ignore the truth and continue to accept lies. Your choice. Oh hell doesn’t exist…wanna bet?

      To Paul P and others.

      I agree with you that God doesn’t torture forever. “He has no pleasure in the death of the wicked” and those who do wickedly will be burned up, Malachi 4:1. Poor translation by men who came from Catholic background impact our understanding. The results will be forever, but not the fire. Nevertheless, I’m quite sure that Hitler and other evil men like him will burn much longer than some who may be as though they never were…
