I'm curious to discuss whether people think the topic of judgment (regardless of which classical view you take on hell) should have any important part of the gospel message Christians present? If so, how much emphasis should be placed on it? I know we've touched on this elsewhere, but not very thoroughly.

I think it can be a part of the gospel message-- certainly there is judgment outside of the kingdom of God-- but if the kingdom itself is a draw for people to come to Jesus, then it isn't necessary. Certainly, in my context, people already experience judgment. Jesus is a wonderful balm to them, and it is usually unnecessary to speak of wrath.
