I'm Reading the Last Line and I'll Say Matthew 25

The only trouble is we took the metaphors especially used by Matthew. They are in other places. I'm not denying that but Matthew always say he had punitive upbringing because he loves to end with a threat. But it's an effective way up to now that teachers have taught. You have to present the alternative in language that is both urgent and ultimate. And so became the language the iconography the symbolism of that God would respect that no as long as you persist in it. That gave it a notion of eternal hell. And even I'm sorry to say eternal torture.
