FAQ: How could a loving God cast people into hell?








"And I have the keys of hell and death, signifies that He alone can save. By "keys" is signified the power of opening and shutting; here the power of opening hell, that man may be brought forth, and of shutting, lest, when he is brought forth, he should enter again. For man is born in evils of all kinds, thus in hell, for evils are hell; he is brought out of it by the Lord, to whom belongs the power of opening it. That by "having the keys of hell and death," is not meant the power of casting into hell, but the power of saving, is because it immediately follows after these words:





Behold, I am alive for ages of ages;





by which is signified that He alone is eternal life (n. 60); and the Lord never casts anyone into hell, but man casts himself. By "keys" is signified the power of opening and shutting, in Revelation also (3:7; 9:1; 20:1; also in Isa. 22:21, 22; in Matt. 16:19; and in Luke 11:52). The power of the Lord is not only over heaven, but also over hell; for hell is kept in order and connection by oppositions against heaven; for which reason, He who rules the one must necessarily rule the other; otherwise man could not be saved; to be saved is to be brought out of hell" (Apocalypse Revealed n. 62).

Reply:If there is prevention , it should be used ,and no church, should call its self a Church ,that would say different. The same ones, who say no birth control are not considering the likely hood , of a baby being born with Aids, Is this not "Prolonged Church Abortions " Phrase coined by Kritikos 43
Reply:I agree with whynotaskdon. However I would like to add that I believe that prevention far outweighs the cure. Let me explain. Without prevention we would only seek a cure. If prevention was used to the fullest capacity, we would not need a cure. People would not become dependent on someone else figuring it out for them.When people have the safety net of a cure...they are less preventative. I that makes sense. And as of late...the catholic has its own issues with prevention.
Reply:While both are important, I feel prevention is better than the cure for a two reasons.





1. You don't have to experience the illness


2. You have a generally healthier outlook on life if you're proactive about *staying* healthy, rather than returning to health after illness





Looking at your example, promoting the use of condoms and safe sex would obviously help decrease the spread of disease, although the cure is important for situations where the disease is still spread. The majority of Catholics I've talked to don't believe in condoms OR research toward cures where the disease is caught from something they consider a sin. Where's that forgiveness I keep hearing about from them? Hmm.
