what is our faith? What is our Christian faith, if in the name of Jesus, we justify oppressive control and horrific violence on people we deem disposable?

The Paralysing Fear of Hell! My Fear of Divine Punishment! My Fear of Everlasting Torment! My Fear of Judgment! My Fear of Hell!

I couldn't see God's love because I feared his wrath.
