I'm still reading the Left Behind books (in the midst of "The Remnant" at the moment) and several thoughts just bug the heck out of me. According to these books, God is love. And yet, you are born a sinner. You can be born, never do a single thing wrong in your entire life, and you will still go to Hell when you die. If God is love, then why are we born sinners? That makes no sense to me. Also, according to the series, Jesus is the only way to get to Heaven. If you don't pray to Jesus, admit you're a sinner and accept Him as your savior, you're going to Hell. I know, personally, that there are a lot of people on the planet that have never heard of Jesus. I lived in Africa for over three years, and there are many people there who have never heard of the bible or Jesus. So, through no fault of their own, they're going to spend eternity in Hell. How can you save yourself by accepting Christ as your savior if you've never heard of Him? That makes absolutely no sense to me.
