Well you did say "IF" the bible was true. That leaves room for "IF NOT".
I'm sorry to hear that you are 100 percent sure that people will spend eternity in hell. I myself have less than zero use for such a belief or such a god.

The original texts are absolute. The best translation is the one that translates the original texts to English the most faithfully. This is why biblical scholars learn Hebrew, Greek, etc. They want to study the Bible without the weight of translation on it.

So which translation is that then ? The Concordant version has no doctrine of hell in it. It claims to be the most accurate version. It points out many translation errors in all the authorized versions that stem from the latin vulgate, one of them being that there was no word for hell in the original hebrew or greek.

I'd like to see these translations. There (not their - LOL) are a LOT of translations and most of them have some critical things wrong with them. I like ISV*, NIV, NASB, KJ, in that order.
