Is Gandhi really in hell?

Popular Christian pastor Rob Bell’s provocative new book has evangelicals renewing an old debate about hell and salvation.

I’ll bet he’s not. I don’t think it’s for me to decide obviously, but going off the fact that he loved Jesus, embraced His teaching, whole heartedly - just not his followers, I’m guessing he’s saved.

Amen to that. For anyone interested in learning about the complex relationship between Gandhi and christianity I warmly recommend a book called “Mahatma Gandhi: an interpretation” by E. Stanley Jones (Christian missionary and friend of Gandhi. A beautiful, humble book which I understand was a favourite of Martin Luther King.
