Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues How could a loving God send people to hell: 1 of 86

God is a loving and forgiving God - for all those who truly seek His forgiveness. However, God is also a God of Justice and Judgement in which every single one of us, living and dead will be judged ‘according to our works’. God is the ultimate ‘Good’, therefore there is no sin at all that w...

Religion & Spirituality > Self-Awareness & Realization Is it possible to live without regrets?: 1 of 50

To live a life without regrets is very very rare. All of us, at some point or other, will look back and think, ah, I should have done this, or I should have done that.
