I just heard that Kirk Cameron publicly stated that he no longer believes in eternal torment and has embraced “Conditional Immortality.” He is being attacked by many who are now labeling him a “heretic.” No doubt his evangelism has been stymied by the pushback from many atheists whose entire justification for rejecting the Gospel is that the Christian God is not just.

Supposedly he is going put together a series of discussions with leaders of both camps on this topic for public viewing. I don’t know how much good it will do but I did encourage him on a FB message to perhaps contact you Tim. But my comment on discussion with another brother on FB was this.
The ministries that are built around “Hell” are not going to let it go. Their whole career and everything they’re known for is built on it. Take Good Fight Ministries. They entertained the idea of inviting T.Warner to the Revelation debate/discussion special they had a few years ago but when they found Tim doesn’t believe scripture teach we are a ghost in a flesh suit he was shunned and they wouldn’t even respond to him anymore. And that’s how these things go. Kirk Cameron is going to find himself blackballed and put on the same list. These “christian” organizations will either bully him back into the orthodox line or turn their backs on him.

Michael,
I agree with you. Believing in “Conditional Immortality” does not necessarily mean that one abandons the alleged intermediate conscious state of the dead. Kirk Cameron no doubt left the “eternal torment” camp because of the objections from atheists that the Christian God is an unjust monster. But he needs to dig deeper.
Plato’s doctrine of the “immortality of the soul” is at the root of most of Christianity’s errors, including Trinitarianism, Unitarianism, and Universalism. Once that weed is eliminated, a great deal of false doctrine evaporates.
