Christians: Does God create people specifically to go to hell?

If their claims that their deity creates everything and everyone for a specific purpose is true, then yes. It premeditatedly creates all murderers, pedophiles, rapists, abortions. miscarriages, accidents, diseases, malformations, and indeed every disaster. Where by it sits idly by watching thousands of theists and atheists alike, suffer and die in the most appalling conditions.

Nowhere in the bible dose it say anyone is going to be tortured for all eternity in a fiery hell. That was the invention of St. Augustine in 400ad.

God is not willing that ANY should perish 2 Peter 3:9 God did use some in a negative way to show His glory but not because He didn't have plans for them later. Read Revelation about the resurrection of all who ever lived and see how the Bible talks about a first resurrection and second resurrection, a firstfruit harvest and a great harvest.

God is NOT trying to save the world now! He's allowing mankind to write a history of sin and all its consequences so that no one will ever wonder throughout all eternity if there's any other way to live but God's way. His hands are off this world except for occasional interventions. II Cor. 4:4 says Satan is the god of this world because God has allowed him to 'help' man see exactly where sin leads--once for all time.

Who says God knows what you or I are going to do? He told Abraham "Now I know..." when Abraham obeyed God in the most difficult of circumstances. Gen 22:12 That tells me He DIDN'T KNOW before that. Also it says Christ 'learned'--how is that possible if He was God (which He was)? Hebrews 5:8 God wants all to be saved but in time, not now! There are billions of people who have died and will die never even hearing of Him, how could He hold them responsible for their actions? And if there is such a thing as Truth, then all those different religious factions can't be right, can they?

God is not less logical or caring than you are! He isn't through with this world or those that have died--not by a long shot!

The Christian's POSITION in Christ was determined before the foundation of the world. It is true for all who will believe. The Bible must be interpreted so that some passages do not conflict with others--your interpretation conflicts with the entire Gospel, which is open to all who will believe. For example, how does your interpretation reconcile with the verse which says "God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentence?" It doesn't, which makes your view wrong.

Interesting question. I know that God have everyone's future planned out, and everything has a purpose that happens. So that means that God planned 68% of the people to go to hell?

If not for Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross, it would have been 100% going to hell.

God thought it was worth it to save some.

God gives all men a choice to accept him or not.

Going to hell is up to the person going there.

Jesus gave us all a get out of hell free, payment in full.

It's up to you to accept it or not.

HELL NO ... no pun intended.

But at birth, every person has a choice ... whether they were born in a voodoo village or a christian family, they have a choice ot accept God or not ...

So to answer your question ... God created people to have a CHOICE not to go to hell ...

Hell yeah.

No, unrepented sins of your own does that...

Everyone has the same offer of salvation..If only 30 percent take the offer..Well you did the math..

God predestines no one to go to hell.

Been asking myself the same question for years....
