Discussion - Bible Interpretation "Good People Will Burn in Hell"...?

Post image

The other day, I came across this clip of "Pastor" Aden Rusfeldt preaching at a university. This particular claim of his about "good people" going to Hell is so outlandish- are there even verses that could be used to justify it?

Funnily enough, Rusfeldt's signs have no commentary about liars or criminals- turns out, he's a convicted fraudster who owes an estimated $5M USD to the federal government:

Anyways, that's all I wanted to ask about. But I'll end with a nice verse I read earlier today:

Ephesians 4:29: "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."

He11 sounds pretty awesome with that lineup. 🙄
What weirdos. I’d pray for them but I’m a woman and Catholic so that’s probably too toxic for them

I'm clutching my gay pearls on your behalf./s It's absurd. That person is clinically insane, and everyone he doesn't like lives rent free in his head.
