That is right. Focusing on Hell is all about avoiding damnation......we were created for more than avoiding damnation. We serve a God that love us and has always wanted to be in free communion with us. Focusing on Hell to gain converts is demonic.

There are MANY more that 2. How can you not know that basic Bible doctrine?Really Prentis? You're really gonna try and quote two sentences out of the bible to prove your point. That's really where you're at?
I think calling it demonic is a bit too far, it could be a demonic gateway if one isn't careful. It has been part of a disscussion with theologians and philosophers since the dawn of time. I've had many people who I am trying to convert ask how such a loving God could could allow anyone to suffer like that. It's a difficult arguement usually and telling them, to sweep it under the rug doesn't win anybody over.

Satan quoted a couple lines out of scripture... who cares... what about the revelation of Jesus Christ?
The revelation of Jesus Christ is what casts out fear homey... hypocrites who pull a couple sentences out of the bible perpetuate fear.
You're losing it homey.. the seeds getting choked from you...
You want me to quote a bunch of scriptures that say different? Do I need to take that route with you?
What a waste dude.. you seem like you're getting way more religious than when you first came on here.
Do you ever quote a verse?I knew someone who didn't look to the fullness of the revelation of Christ and pulled sentences out of context in the bible and doesn't even understand what Jesus is talking about would come in with that quote and leave it to Duckybill... of course... haha
Be afraid of God but don't be afraid of God???If you look at the context of what He's talking about He's saying, "If you're going to be afraid of someone don't be afraid of people... be afraid of God... but don't be afraid of God because you are valuable to Him"
There's no need for name calling.But ignorant hypocrites who perpetuate fear of God because it boasts their own pride and ego catered to by their own self righteousness can't even hear what Jesus is saying... they're just like, "Jesus said to fear God" haha... fricken blind leaders of the blind... so worthless...
Hope to see you there.I tell you what... when I walk into the wedding feast I'll be throwing all my dirty rags in the trash... because I wouldn't get caught in that feast dressed in anything other than the robe of righteousness He clothed me in... and that has nothing to do with me... He's the Lord my righteousness... He's my righteousness... that's all...
