I saw some people out on Flinders St with some signs "Hell is real" "Repent Now" "Heaven is Real". Now I guess I have to commend their zeal willing to stand there for hours open to ridicule etc, but isn't this getting away a bit from what Jesus preached.
Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God. "The time has come," he said. "The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!" Mk 1:14f
So much emphasis on personal salvation, escpaing hell, principles, the point is overlooked by most of the christianity.
The Gospel is a world domination plan by the creator of this world to reclaim it from the ways we have messed it up. We need to stop nit picking over interpretations, cultural issues, social hierarchies. We need to stop playing the game the rest of the world is playing and bring creation back to its original purpose.
Forget all the bullshit, we are destroying the planet and each other, if not directly by inaction and complacency.
