How could God allow people to have genuine free will, and yet have a way to righteously exclude them from His everlasting Kingdom if they decided to be evil? By establishing a decree long before He ever created mankind, God provided for humble and loving people to have a wonderful everlasting future. This teaching also shows that those who are not saved will be annihilated in the Lake of Fire, not tormented forever.
