The judgment of our Father's House is the same judgment as that experienced by an unbeliever. If that judgment is eternal torment what can be said of the house of God?

The problem with boxes, when considering our Father's World, is that it leaves us with four sides that constrain us within its confines.

"Then opened He their understanding that they might understand the Scriptures."

"Opened" = dianoigō =

To thoroughly open by drawing asunder.

To arouse the faculty of understanding & desire to learn.

Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?
