Happy Wednesday!
Today, though Grayce could not join the recording, Janell sits down with Jon Noyes to chat about a few of Grayce’s questions about hell and eternal punishment. First, Jon shares about how he came to belief in Christ. He talks about his life before Christ and how his life has become different afterwards. They then get into a discussion about hell, punishment, sin, and more. They discuss the holiness of God, the human senses of Justice, and what happens when someone who didn’t get the opportunity to hear about God dies. They also chat about emotionalism, relativism, and other cultural trends. We hope you enjoy this episode!
About Jonathan Noyes
Jonathan has worked as a speaker with Stand to Reason since 2019. A former atheist, Jonathan used to think belief in God was unwarranted and irresponsible. Then, after examining the evidence for Christianity he was faced with the fact that Jesus is who He says He is and the Christian worldview tells the true story of reality. Since then Jon has been passionate about engaging the culture with honest, well thought-out reasons why people should trust the Christian worldview. Jon has developed a series of passionate talks to do just that.
In 2013 Jonathan earned a master’s degree in Christian Apologetics from Biola University, graduating with honors. Jon brings a unique perspective to his audiences and the Stand to Reason team, having more than ten years' experience in the legal field and serving more than five as a pastor in his local church. Jon also serves on the board of directors for Life Without Limbs and at Beacon Hill Classical Academy, where he teaches discipleship.

"'Safe?' said Mr. Beaver; 'don't you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you.'"

Psalm 55:12-15 (English Standard Version)
”For it is not an enemy who taunts me— then I could bear it; it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me— then I could hide from him. But it is you, a man, my equal, my companion, my familiar friend. We used to take sweet counsel together; within God’s house we walked in the throng. Let death steal over them; let them go down to Sheol alive; for evil is in their dwelling place and in their heart.”
