Paul really hits this one dead center of a sermon I had heard years ago, in that those who land themselves in Hell will be there by choice, not by accident. Being there will never be a matter of happenstance! They will know that raising up a finger of accusation will not at all avail them of their responsibility for wanting to try and pay for their own sins rather than to have placed them upon Christ.
This should be uplifting, because it hits at the core of truth with which we should all be equipped. It's not about seeing Hell-bound people as a positive thing, but recognizing that those who end up there are willfully there because the offer of Christ is provided for ALL who WILL come to Him for what only He offers as a free gift.
