Waffling Over Hell

David Hansen:


There is an important place in the ministry for honest questioning over doctrinal issues. But I'm not proud of my tossing and turning over hell. Some pastors wear their agnosticism about hell as a badge of honor. I've tried it. I've acted as if struggling to believe our Lord's words were a virtue. But I always found that when I became proud of my doubts, they suddenly become the sin of unbelief. For me, finally, waffling over hell became the sin of unbelief. (The Art of Pastoring, 78)


On a related note, if you want to look into inclusivism and understand its deficiencies, I highly recommend:
