God’s Unconditional Love

Lets first look at what is untrue:
As most of you will know must churches tech that if you love god you will go to heaven and if you don’t love god you will go to Hell. This is known as conditional love. According to these churches god’s love is conditional, you have to love him first. If you don’t he will send you to hell. According to these churches hell was created for the evil spiritual beings. In hell you get tortured by fire for all eternity. They are saying that god built the place and that he will send people to this place for not loving him. This is not a loving god, this is an evil, hateful god that is punishing people for not loving him. No wonder this has turned millions of people away from the churches. This is both untrue and unscriptural.
Some who realise how evil this is tech that there god will instead annihilate all those who do not love him. This is still a evil and hateful god. This also untrue and unscriptural. Unbelievers are still alive after the Judgement according to scripture, this shows that annihilation after the Judgement is untrue.
A few teach a mixture of the two. Thus after judgement you will get tortured by fire for a period of time, before you are annihilated. This would be pointless, but it is an attempted to get around scripture problems with the believe in annihilation, but still hold on to that believe. Again this is both untrue and unscriptural.
The Truth:
The truth is there are no conditions on God’s Love. God does not start loving you when you become a believer, he loves you before you know him. He loves everyone from before they are born, continuously forever. He has never not loved you, and he will never stop loving you. That shows you how great his love is for you and for everyone else.
There is no evil place called hell that God created. Hell does not exist at all, and never will exist. God is no evil, hateful torturer, God is Love. Unbelievers go to the place that is known spiritual as the Lake of Fire, it is in this place that they are spiritually cleansed. After this time they to will enter the “Kingdom of the Heavens.”
God really does love everybody.
