December 8, 2021 at 7:00 pmMy friend is struggling with the fact that his mom is not a Christian. He says he cannot accept that she is the only human who loves him and that God would send her to hell if she doesn’t become a Christian before she dies. I feel so inadequate. I don’t have a good answer. I can pray for his mom but what else can I do or say?

December 8, 2021 at 7:24 pmBest answer in my view, pray with this friend for the mother’s heart to be opened for the gospel. This will help you friend to learn to rely on our Heavenly Father and the accent the truth of each persons free will. None can do it for them but none can’t take the freedom to call on the name of our Redeemer. Comfort your friend with the fact, that our Heavenly Father teaches the beloved mother in her heart. Those willing to learn will be drawn into the Kingdom. Remind your friend that the mothers life span is protected and

Also pray with your friend, that Holy Spirit will send laborers across her path. Remember for your balance mixed with certainty, if said mother isn’t in the book of our Lambs Life poured out, that His adopted children’s tears and grief, dismay … etc. will be wiped away … truth with bear peace. Father doesn’t send any to hell they insist through unbelief reject Grace, Mercy, Truth and Love. ✝️

December 9, 2021 at 10:41 amDear silmaril1147. This question is a stumbling block for many people. The easiest way, and Biblical way to explain this question is.
JESUS’ DEATH WAS INFINITE AND ETERNAL IN VALUE, PAYING THE FULL PRICE FOR OUR SIN. [1 Jn. 2:2]. GOD PROMISES THAT ANYONE WHO BELIEVES IN, AND PUTS THE WHOLE OF THEIR TRUST IN JESUS, ALONE AS SAVIOR, WILL NOT GO TO HELL.
God is a loving God. He is not willing that any should perish (2 Pet. 3:9). This is why He sent His One and only begotten Son to earth to die on a cross for the sins of all mankind. God doesn’t send people to hell. People send themselves to hell by simply rejecting God’s free gift of love JESUS CHRIST the righteous.
God made us free moral agents. In other words, we have been given the right to choose. Man can either choose to believe in JESUS or not. The decision is ours to make. How we choose, will determine where we spend our eternity. The choice is ours. God will even defend our right to not believe in JESUS, and will allow us to go to hell, if that’s our choice.Praying, Holy Spirit work in these hearts.
In JESUS name. Amen! 💓

December 9, 2021 at 10:53 amThis was a stumbling block in my faith for many years and is the reason I turned away from Christianity specifically and became Agnostic (believing in God, but not specifically Jesus) for a decade. It is a hard one and to be honest, I still don’t have the answer and struggle with it myself. However, I pray very hard for my friends and family who are unbelievers, or believers in a backslidden state (like I was). Pray with him (join with him in prayer) for his mother, for God to soften her heart to the gospel, for God to cultivate fertile soil in her soul that can receive the word, and for God to reach her in a way that SHE understands and will be receptive to. Pray that God send positive loving ethical ACTIVE Christians as great examples in her life, too. For me, my parents and family prayed this for me for the decade I was out of church and out of Christianity. God started to reach me and call me back in my late 20s. I was reluctant, but our God is a great God and patient too. I started having conversations about my faith with my fiance (now husband) who approached difficult topics with patience, kindness, and biblical knowledge. After a spiritual battle, I returned to Christ. Prayers work.
