God's presence in hell does not make hell good, but neither does it make hell a world absolutely devoid of good, which was what I said I thought was hard to conceive of."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12
There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

I don't reject it, I just don't think it's relevant to the topic.
Of course it does. Hell doesn't become slightly good just because God's presence extends there. The good part would still be God, and not hell.Last edited by Adrift; 06-23-2017, 04:28 PM.

That very word translated "evil" is used where God says ". . . I . . . create evil . . . ," Isaiah 45:7.
Deuteronomy 32;39,
. . . See now that I, [even] I, [am] He, and there is no god with Me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither [is there any] that can deliver out of My hand. . . .. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV
