“Eternal Torture”, as a concept, was invented by Catholics in the dark ages.
The lake of fire and brimstone is eternal torture. If you are not satan, its the lake of fire what is meant. It is eternal separation from God. The God that made you and Creation. To be separated from Him is to live life without living, eternally without any life. Eternal darkness. To say, without all the good the universe has to offer. You’re left with nothing but the worst humanity, the spiritual world and the universe has to offer. And it is called the second death, its eternal and not long sleepy rest death like when your earthly body ceases.
The new testament is just as vile and filled with hate as the old one.
How so?
How about eternal torture for something as petty as non belief? Sounds pretty manipulative, insecure, and evil to me.

Behold a bunch of unrelated out of context quotes from the New Testament chained together to play into @ChetManly@lemmy.world 's fictional narrative
Who decides which context is correct?
How about reading it and actually seeing context for yourself?
I have. You going to try to justify slavery now?
There are no justifications of slavery in the New Testament
