Book Cover & Preview Text
It is a beautiful thing to fall into the hands of a loving God. It is safe to say that love is the preeminent attribute of God that drives His heart towards people. God’s love does not quickly jump to hatred for humans because they have sinned and fallen short of His glory. His love seems to deepen for those who stray away from Him as He continues to provide opportunities for grace, mercy, and salvation to bring them into His loving arms.
Many believe that hell is incompatible with God’s characteristics, especially His love. It is also believed that God is morally wrong to consign any human to hell because He could do something to stop it since He is the Omni-God. Thinking of God and hell in this manner has profound implications, but it also does not take into consideration what He has done to help humans avoid hell. The Divine Promulgation View of Hell brings to the forefront the actions God has taken to protect humans from eternal punishment. It reassures that these actions flow from His characteristics.
To be sure, God loves His creation. First of all, He could have chosen not to create, but out of His love, He did. Secondly, God created the earth specifically for human habitation and sustained it. Thirdly, He communicates His love through various methods to His human creation to ensure His love, sovereignty, and mercy are felt and can be known. Fourth of all, He warns of destruction and gives specific instructions and details around the two eternal options to help humans make the right choice. God behaves as a loving father who creates, provides, sustains, and speaks to His children, warning them of impending destruction and taking actions to prevent it. The purpose of salvific Scripture is to drive the reader away from eternal damnation and into the arms of a loving God. Only a loving God would warn people of eternal damnation and destruction in hell and then reveal His plans, by inspiring Scripture, to rescue them from such an awful fate. Employing the Divine Promulgation View of Hell provides adequate evidence that God has promulgated necessary information, in various ways, to prevent humans from an eternity in hell; therefore, He is not a moral monster. God takes hell seriously and has taken action to limit human exposure to it. While humans may think God has not done enough, it is time to recognize that He has done a great deal. God has passed the baton to humans to finish the race; it is time to run and not in the direction of hell.

About the Book
Hell has become the pink elephant in the room. No one wants to discuss this very real and very unpleasant topic. While blessings are at the top of everyone’s conversation, God has been shouting from the heavens that something terrible could very possibly be awaiting. It is time to take the blinders off and come face to face with what God has been saying to His beloved creation on the topic of hell. If we take God at His word, and we should, it is clear that danger is ahead if the warnings are not heeded. God has been promulgating dire information about hell, and He is the absolute best source to do so. What in Hell Conflicts with God presents the authoritative information that God has promulgated to His people and the various methods He used to communicate. Many theologians and philosophers have tackled hell’s doctrine, and all agree that it is problematic for most. The problem of hell is considered the most grotesque and gratuitous of moral evils, especially when the all-loving and all-powerful God is at the center of it. How do you reconcile the Omni-God with hell? Is God morally at fault for humans consigned to hell? The Divine Promulgation View of Hell responds to this hellish moral dilemma by detailing God’s actions to prevent humans from such a terrible fate. What in Hell Conflicts with God reveals the actions taken and the lengths God has gone to prevent humans from eternal punishment. God has not left us to our wits; He has taken action. It is time to listen to what He has to say.
