To paraphrase Rob Bell: Bin Laden’s in hell? And you know this for a fact?
If I understand the thesis that Bell floats in his book Love Wins, all the wrong doing of Osama Bin Laden was atoned for by the death of Jesus Christ, so God holds nothing against him; the life of privilege he enjoyed and the purposes of suffering he inflicted upon thousands of others was his personal experience of hell; and after his death, faced with the stark choice between God’s accepting love or self-induced suffering, he may well have already chosen for God to win and be in heaven now. And if not now, maybe tomorrow, or next week.
That, according to Rob Bell, is love winning.
