Hell and Holiness

November 17, 2015 by Randal

Last year I wrote an article titled “Hell, right doctrine, and right character” in which I explored the link between the formulation of right doctrine and the process of sanctification. The idea, in short, is this: correct doctrine ought to encourage the process of sanctification (aka becoming Christlike). Thus, if acceptance of a particular doctrine tends to undermine the process of sanctification, that fact counts against the truth of the doctrine in question.

Yesterday the blog “Unfundamentalist Christians” published a rewritten version of the article under the title: “How the Traditional Doctrine of Hell Undermines Christian Character“.
