He is not Good to the seed of the serpent, for here is their sure doom of hopelessness..matt 23:
You blaspheme God's character and contradict His word by saying He is not good to some.
Psalm 145:9 The LORD is good to all,
And His mercies are over all His works.
Psalm 145:17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways
And kind in all His deeds.
, for here is their sure doom of hopelessness..matt 23:
The verse does not contain that phrase, therefore it can be rightly questioned if it means that.
I will prove what I am saying.

33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Jesus asks a question. But the problem is that the words here are added to. When you pull out your translation in another verse to imply a LITERAL and not an ABSTRACT form, you create a contradiction to the literal. That's just how it is.
Continuing from 33, then we get down to the answer to Jesus question.
Mt 23:39 For I am saying to you: You may by no means be perceiving Me henceforth, till you should be saying, `|Blessed~ is He *Who is coming~ in the name of the Lord!'"
If there is no hope for the wicked, then they could not be told that in verse 39.
Of course, there is judgment and accountability, this is a verse of HOPE, PERIOD. There is no way to make a context where this is not hope for the wicked.
Philippians verifies this
Phl 2:10 that in the name of Jesus every knee should be bowing, celestial and terrestrial and subterranean,
Phl 2:11 and every tongue should be acclaiming~ that Jesus Christ is Lord, intofor the glory of God, the Father.
This is the "TIL" part of Matthew 23:39 How will they escape the damnation of hell? Well, When they confess, that's when.
No its not opinion, Its Gods word that i witness to against your opinion..
