The Debate Over Hell: William Lane Craig Responds to Hellgate

The Hellgate discussion hosted by Kirk Cameron in January 2026 brought together several respected Christian thinkers to wrestle with one of the Bible's most difficult doctrines. It included Gavin Ortlund, Dan Paterson, Chris Date, and Paul Copan. In this episode, Dr. William Lane Craig evaluates the panel's discussion, considers the biblical arguments that were presented, and offers his own assessment of what Scripture teaches about hell, eternal punishment, and final judgment.
