In Luke 10:12-15, it seems that Jesus condemns the unrepentant cities. One fundamental question that is asked by all is, "Does God ever condemn anyone for anything?" Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines the word condemn as this: To say in a strong and definite way that someone or something is bad or wrong, to give (someone) a usually severe punishment, to cause (someone) to suffer or live in difficult or unpleasant conditions. Would God, whose essence is love, ever do such a thing to any being? The focus of the talk will be on the nature of the so-believed "God punishes us" and its relationship to the state of being unrepentant.
