Pope Francis, Scalfari, and Annihilation Claims

In this episode, we take a closer look at Kirk Cameron’s recent statements about hell and explore how they compare with Scripture, Christian tradition, and contemporary theological perspectives. From Ray Comfort’s reaction to the broader Protestant response, we’ll examine whether these newer ideas align with historic Christian doctrine—or represent a departure from it.

We’ll then turn to what the Bible says about hell, how various Christian traditions have interpreted those passages, and whether annihilationism has a place within the bounds of orthodoxy. Along the way, we consider the role of sola scriptura, the importance of tradition, and how the Catholic magisterium has addressed these questions—including thoughts from Pope Francis on the subject.
