Is there any hope for a Christian who falls away from the faith, repents and returns to following Jesus?

Jesus describes a broad and long road to perdition that culminates in hell. That road is familiar to most people and already contains the 'flames of life' which only become more concentrated the closer we come to the point of no return and final perdition of the psyche. If 'hell' itself did not exist, you would need an alternative explanation for the flames of life and a way to escape from them other than Christ.

Jesus is not only a redeemer of our psyche from eternal separation from God, but He is a daily savior to all human beings, whether they realize it or not. 'For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers.' (1 Timothy 4:10). I will explain to you in practical terms exactly how Jesus is a daily savior for all people along the path of perdition, long before any of them reach their final decision and abandon their own psyches to eternal perdition.

Jesus speaks of a highly constricted and narrow path which He refers to as the 'strait gate.' It is this path which leads us to eternal life. It is not a magical or theoretical path, but one of mundane materials and simple daily choices. Jesus spoke of two incompatible systems.

One He referred to as 'mammonas' and the other as the worship of the true God, (Matthew 6:24). He explains that we must choose between one or the other, that we cannot serve both at the same time. In order to experience the 'true riches' we must demonstrate a sincere belief in God's holy Path using simple familiar material things, (Luke 16:11).

The path of mammonas, (which modern people call 'progress'), is a path of cooperative efforts between government and crime. The broad and open road to destruction is represented by a set of tandem operations existing between government and criminal enterprise. Most people recognize 'liberty' as either permission from government to act or speak called 'license,' or the brief sense of personal release we experience by abandoning law, morality or ethics, which is called criminal 'licentiousness.' Neither of these are actually true liberty.

True liberty exists in the highly constricted space in between these two operations. Government justifies more license by pointing to criminal acts. Criminals justify more moments of licentious freedom by pointing to government restrictions.

True liberty does not wait for permission to act, but also does not abandon respect for law, morality and ethics. This represents a hidden and easily ignored path, but it is the path to eternal life which Jesus speaks about as the kingdom of heaven. Without it, we would have absolutely no alternative at all to our inescapable arms races, weapons of mass destruction and planet poisoning mega-industry.

We would be in a hopeless state of perpetual war without any respite at all because of the inevitable logical course of an unfair and imperfect human governance and equally imperfect partnership of criminal enterprises. This is oppression itself, driven by inevitable side-forming and social strife, and the favoritism or partiality that causes some to always seem 'valuable' and others 'expendable.' That system always leads to death and perdition, first of the body and then of the psyche. Jesus is the embodiment of the only Path out of that evil construct.

The world requires His daily salvation simply to continue its own vain futuristic visions, let alone find any course of escape from perdition itself and recognize the Path to genuine equal love, brotherhood and eternal life. The only thing restraining the world from succumbing to absolute destruction is the currently well hidden, often sporadic, unpredictable and sudden taste of natural liberty which individuals still experience out among the vast visible populations of the world and its broad public road to self-destruction.

Jesus death brought salvation not just to the dead. It to the living. As John 11:25,26 says.

Revelation 21:4 says one day there will be no more death. Romans 6: 7 says those who have died are forgiven of there sins. Death pays the price of sin.

Romans 6: 23 so hell is not a place of torture but just the grave.. Read about where hell fire was first taught.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
