Going against Greg Koukl's advice I'll quote a bible verse. "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice lawlessness." Matthew 7:23. A straightforward reading gives the impression that God is sending these people to Hell. Of course there are some other factors at play here, but the bottom line is, if God is not sending these people to Hell, who is, and if He is, then why is He?
