Here is the video and transcript of Rob Bell’s latest promo for his heretical theology. I am somewhat hesitant to post this for two reasons.

1) Anyone who is truly regenerate and familiar with Bell already knows this man is a heretic.

2) By bringing more attention to his theological idiocy, we may actually be helping him sell this book. I hope that’s not the case.

Now, lest anyone think I am being a smidge harsh on Bell, you should know that this man has a history of being theologically askew to say the least. There is yet hope that God will be pleased to correct this man’s understanding of His Word. There is yet hope for Rob Bell and those who flock to his teachings. Until then, know for a certainty that this man is an ongoing danger to many. This video and it’s message was well thought out and quite intentional. Rob Bell knows exactly what he is doing, that his teachings are in conflict with the Word of God, and that makes him especially a cause for concern within the Church.

For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. – 2 Timothy 4:3,4 (ESV)

Several years ago we had an art show at our church and people brought in all kinds of sculptures, and paintings, and we put them on display. And there was this one piece that had a quote from Gandhi in it; and lots of people found this piece compeling. They’d stop and sort of stare at it, and take it in, and reflect on it—but not everybody found it that compelling. Somewhere in the course of the art show somebody attached a hand-written note to the piece, and on the note they had written: “Reality Check—He’s In Hell.”

Gandhi’s in hell? He is? And someone knows this, for sure; and felt the need to let the rest of us know? Will only a few, select, people make it to heaven? And will billions and billions of people burn forever in hell? And, if that’s the case, how do you become one of the few? Is it what you believe; or what you say, or what you do, or who you know—or something that happens in your heart? Or do you need to be initiated, or baptized, or take a class, or converted, or being born again—how does one become one of these few?

And then there is the question behind the questions, the real question: What is God like? Because millions and millions of people were taught that the primary message—the center of the Gospel of Jesus—is that God is going to send you to hell, unless you believe in Jesus. And so, what gets, subtlely, sort of caught and taught is that Jesus rescues you from God. But what kind of God is that; that we would need to be rescued from this God? How could that God ever be good; how could that God ever be trusted? And how could that ever be good news.

This is why lots of people want nothing to do with the Christian faith. They see it as an endless list of absurdities and inconsistencies; and they say: “Why would I ever want to be part of that?” See, what we believe about heaven and hell is incredibly important because it exposes what we believe about Who God is, and what God is like. What you discover in the Bible is so surprising, unexpected, and beautiful, that whatever we’ve been told or taught, the good news is actually better than that; better than we could ever imagine.

The good news is, that love wins. (:06-2:34)
