Can't wait to get my hands on Rob Bell's new book, "Love Wins: A Book About Heaven , Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived", due to be released by HarperOne on March 29th. Have you seen the book promotion video narrated personally by Rob Bell? If not, here's your chance (click here). This video has generated huge controversy on Facebook, Twitter and blogs. And, no one has even seen, touched or read the book yet. Has Rob Bell drifted and become a "Universalist" as one has characterized him and his new (unread) book? HarperOne says, in a description of the book, "With searing insight, Bell puts hell on trial, and his message is decidedly optimistic—eternal life doesn’t start when we die; it starts right now. And ultimately, Love Wins."  What do you think? Check out the video and come on back to comment. Here's a link to what was said about his book by ChristianityToday, today (click here).

I think it is an excellent marketing ruse. We will not actually know what Rob Bell thinks are the answers to the questions he poses on the video until we read the book. There is a lot of mis- information and incomplete quoting of scriptures in all the comments I have read. Let's heed 2 Timmothy 2:14 and not argue about words, especially those we have not yet seen. The message is not yet published, so we cannot argue it yet.
