“Readers and Writers” Episode 7 with Erik Raymond

10 Reasons Why You Should Open Your Bible

Hell is for judgment upon those who’ve sinned against God, not simply for those who’ve heard the gospel or not heard the gospel. —Erik Raymond

 

erik raymondUnlocking the Bible continues to release weekly episodes of Readers and Writers with Colin Smith, a podcast recorded live at The Gospel Coalition’s 2017 National Conference.

Our next guest is Erik Raymond, who shares about his writing and newest book from The Good Book Company, Is Hell for real? And other questions about judgment, eternity and the God of love. 

Here’s a summary of the book’s content:

The word hell conjures up all kinds of nightmares in people’s minds, but also presents a difficulty for many Christians. How can a God who the Bible says literally “is love” condemn anyone to an eternity of torment? Will punishment be eternal? Is hell for real?

In this short, accessible book, pastor and author Erik Raymond reviews this important subject for everyone with pastoral warmth and biblical clarity.
