Annihilation would mean the same eternal pain within finite time, and so even as a kind of euthanasia it is futile. We should hope not for a swift end, but rather be grateful that God gives people the time to savor the goodness that they can still appreciate...— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

Eternal conscious torment is strictly better than annihilation.Eternal conscious torment is an eternal fall toward the void (zero actuality of will), while annihilation is exactly zero actuality of will.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

A will has to be something rather than nothing. There is no neutral state available to a will, no uncommitted setting. Every will that exists is determinate. Annihilation is unavailable from the inside, and from the outside is unnecessary because God does not actively damn.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

"How could a good God make someone suffer forever?"Bro, how could a good God allow someone's will to not be actualized even when that person is partially willing as God wills along the way?— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

God letting one wallow about his goodness being satisfied, whether or not they like it, is parcel and package with God being the sovereign who is no respecter of persons. God never overadjusts or gets petty. And this means leaving people to their sin forever.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

Western culture is right for valuing spiritualities, since spiritualities orient all temporalities and reveal their ultimate purpose in God.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 12, 2026

Chinese culture is right for valuing temporalities, since temporalities are a part of the totality of spiritualities. (If there is continuity from now to the eschaton, then God at some point in time fully actualizes all temporal goods.)— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 12, 2026

I was criticizing the idea that unless someone says the words "Christ died, was buried, and rose on the third day" in a way you can understand, they are certainly going to hell. One must have faith in Christ, and there are ordinary signs, but they are not exhaustive.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) July 20, 2026

The promise of the cross is not that we will undergo no suffering, but that the way and the truth and the life will be worth it *despite* any suffering along the way.

It is so important to spirituality to realize that God is speaking, but we are not yet in a place to fully understand and can only get there by his renewal of our senses and his condescension in communication (most of all through the incarnation).— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 13, 2026

Those in hell disagree with God on many things. The standard for goodness is actuality, and God's will is fully actual. This means that he will actualize the slivers of any will that are aiming, even if incidentally, toward his good purposes.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

God can only permit *moral* evil; God cannot permit *substantial* evil. Creation is good, as God wills it; it is fallen as we have twisted it.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 10, 2026

I am comfortable with the idea that evil is the privation of good, and so being in hell is fundamentally about hating God's goodness and orienting toward our own "goodness". It might be true that some want exactly the void, but I don't think this is practically possible.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) November 2, 2026

Chinese culture kills itself against Goodhart’s law (and by the way, notice how Chinese immigration to the West has massively pumped how much metrics-gaming we now see in American society), and Western culture at its laziest lies down and waits for the rapture.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 12, 2026
