it FROM good reliable authority
that Mr.. X had nothing more to

 If God has said, Unto Me every knee shall how, every tongue shall swear that in the Lord they have righteousness and strength" where is the authority for saying that some of them shall weller in the flames of an endless hell as ,long as God exists2 Can God possess two attributes diametric,llly opposed to each other for instance, love and hate, while all his attributes are infinite ?.
