Everything is not in it's order. It's also not just a problem in "my mind". There is a sickness in the earth. Deny it if you will, but that is the truth.
The problem is with our judgements. This is right and that's wrong - that creates hell. Ironically, we were intended to eat the fruit, as we also were intended to eat of the tree of life, though were initially barred from doing so.
The sickness in the earth is our judgement of it. And more correctly, the sickness is a figment of imagination in our own personal world. The earth is just fine. It is our own world's that need to die, every day.
God is not judging the earth, neither is He judging you, nor anyone else. That's why He is at total peace, ...shalom.
...in truth, if one holds to a God of reward and punishment, then that is your hell, right there.
Indeed, God as we have made him and written of Him, is a control figure, man's alter ego. The Truth is an unconditional loving spirit, LIFE, who is All in All - everything that is, each one, is the physical manifestation of that one LIFE.

The wisdom of men on display...again. He is equating doctrinal differences to burning children to death with fire with a crying puppet. Maybe "wisdom" is not the right word here...
The gospel is NOT all people will be saved.
The gospel IS salvation is available through Jesus Christ.
The best thing you can do is simply follow instructions and preach His message.
If hell bothers you, don't mention it. Just preach the gospel that God has provided in the Scriptures.

I will mention hell anytime God wants me to. If it bothers you, put me on IGNORE.
Salvation is available through Jesus Christ? What is this, a menu you order from?
SALVATION is IN and THROUGH CHRIST. Take care not to trivialize something as important as it is.

Oh, if only God were a control figure in the earth! Then everything would be in proper order. Do you think God could make a bad choice for anyone? Not a chance. You and I are not on the same page. And that's okay with me. I don't think you are spreading misery as the many are. My message is intended for those who are bent on spreading misery to the earth's inhabitants. I don't think you are in that group.

They don't believe they are spreading misery - they think they are 'saving' people from it. It's really just another level of 'knowing not what they do'. In the end, it is what it is - just dismiss it and carry on - it's not part of your world.
Is this another Christian-bashing thread? There seems to be no point or benefit to this.
That all depends on what you believe to be true.
