Just read a fascinating article on CNN.com about Rob Bell. Rob is a prolific Christian author and pastor of the Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan. His latest book, Love Wins: A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived, has sparked a firestorm among the protectors of Christian orthodoxy. To put it simply, all hell has broken out over Bell’s soon-to-be-released book.

According to a blog post on the Gospel Coalition, a website popular among conservative evangelicals, Bell is accused of putting forth “false doctrine.”  According to Justin Taylor’s post, “It seems that this is not just optimism about the fate of those who haven’t heard the Good News, but … full-blown hell-is-empty-everyone-gets-saved universalism.”

My heavens! Or, oh hell!, might be a better way to say it. Rob Bell actually believes that God is going to win??

How preposterous!
