The phrase “weeping and gnashing of teeth” belongs with the New Testament description of Hell. Because of our cartoonish view of Hell, we think of “weeping” as being connected to burning, and “gnashing of teeth” as a painful grinding of sorts, but these words aren’t about physical torment. After studying all of the places where this phrase pops up, Kim Papaioannou concludes that, “the weeping repr

| This is a terrific exegetical work on the poor that does not try to find easy ways out of challenging passages. Well worth the read on the topic. | |

“One by one, these disciples would infect the nations with grace. It wasn't a call to take the sword or the throne and force the world to bow. Rather, they were to live the contagious love of God, to woo the nations into a new future.”

“I think there is no suffering greater than what is caused by the doubts of those who want to believe. I know what torment this is, but I can only see it, in myself anyway, as the process by which faith is deepened. A faith that just accepts is a child's faith and all right for children, but eventually you have to grow religiously as every other way, though some never do.

If you fell you can't believe, you must at least do this: keep an open mind. Keep it open toward faith, keep wanting it, keep asking for it, and leave the rest to God. ”
