To Hell and Back Who Are There Sermon at Fulton Opera House
The Rev C T Russell preached on December 23 at Fulton Opera House about hell and its meaning. He argued eternal torment misrepresents God and that scripture shows a loving rescue plan, noting personal doubt prompted his change from belief. He cited Job 14 13 and urged a hopeful view of Sheol as temporary rather than eternal punishment.
