The Doctrine of Hell,20 min.,2006
Faith is the highest passion in a human being. Many in every generation may not come that far, but none comes further. -- Soren Kierkegaard
The Doctrine of Hell is a sermon about the suffering of non-believers after death. The preacher, the focus of the film, is glowingly engaged in his task. He wants to save non-believers from Hell. In Hell, poverty, flames, crying and eternal suffering await the doomed. The preacher is believable and sincere. There is only one way out of the suffering, and that is through faith in Jesus Christ.
Man is the religious animal. He is the only religious animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion ?- several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself and cuts his throat, if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven.
