Orthodox teachings regarding hell are essentially the same whether one is Reformed Calvinist or Reformed Arminian. That said, I agree with you that there should be a good balance. I have read Witherington's comments and I posted Dr. Tennet's commentary on this book here on this site. I found the latter to be most useful of all I have read on the issue.<br /><br />http://travelah.blogspot.com/2011/04/my-final-post-maybe-regarding-rob-bell.htmlA.M.

Of course much of what he says may be fine and not touch on the Arminian vs. calvinist divide. But you would probably do better to point to some critiques from solid Arminian theologians, such as those by Ben Witherington and Timothy Tennet, which have been posted at the Society of Evangelical Arminians' website.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698448.post-57215668369394523382011-03-22T18:53:01.607-07:002011-03-22T18:53:01.607-07:00SLW has some good thoughts to share.
