Spiritual etymology

Which verse says that people are damned for eternity?

John 1:29 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

I am not going to do your homework for you. You know very well what verses. The parable of the wheat and the tares alone is enough, but there are thousands. You know what you are doing, so do I, so does God.

The translations into "eternal" and "everlasting" are erroneous. The YLT and Concordance provide the correct translations. And I've never said that souls aren't sent to the Lake of Fire, I'm simply referring to the plethora of scripture that demonstrates that nobody goes there forever.

 

[Patrick1966]

Moreover, why do my fellow Christians doubt God's ability to draw ALL men to him? Do they believe that God is a loser? I don't.

They took GOD out of the equation . They made GOVT the GOD . much like what i am seeing going on
in the western nations as we speak . In all honestly it seems like what is going on in this world
came right out of the communist manfesto .
Break the churches down from within , mold them into a mouthpiece for the agenda .
Take over news stations , have them spout the propoganda .
Take over the educational system
over science
over religion and religions .
Make truth into a liquid , then reshape the truth into the agenda .
Break down all trust in fundamnetal truth .
Pit the peoples against each other .
create the problem , support the chaos , Then slam HOME the SOLUTION .
Break down , then reshape . These folks been at work for a long time my friend .
And due to the rebellion that has occured against GOD and the fact so many loved to have it so ,
WELL its all been given over to total reprobation of mind .
The peoples are groaning under what the ELITES themselves have helped to cause
not knowing , and have no idea these same ones are already supplanting the very ideals
and the very solution that will give , THEMSELVES , all the power and control THEY ALWAYS DESIRED .
DIGITAL SYSTEM . YE CONFORM NOT , YE NO BUY YE NO SELL . ITS ALL COMING DEVIN
and through fear manipulated unto the masses and through ideals of convience , peace and safety , THE PEOPLES ARE
BUYING INTO IT .

LOL!!! This political rant has nothing to do with spiritual etymology!

And the constant words against a man can have a spiritual root. It is better to forgive the man. Forgiving destroys the root, even a root of bitterness.

You think I'm an admirer of the Pope? You are totally mistaken. He probably is a good guy, but the position he holds is as unScriptural as it gets.

Our Spiritual Bodies

Philippians 3:20-21 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; 21 who will transform the body of our humble state into conformity with the body of His glory, by the exertion of the power that He has even to subject all things to...

People should learn how to abandon carnal reasoning in favor of being lead by the Spirit . But do most people consider why they believe what they do? How will they know they are being lead by the Spirit or not?

I think people identify things at a glance as good or evil by whatever they value. And their values which themselves may be good or evil are not analyzed. Nether can they be analyzed without the light of the inspired words which divide soul and spirit.

From where does soulishness derive such as In 1 Corinthians 2:14?

It is clear one must receive things of God through the new spirit. It also appears that those who are born again of a new spirit are still capable of being soulish. So what makes people who are capable of being soulish or spiritual choose one or the other?

Blessings in Christ Jesus lforrest! I personally do not choose to be spiritual, I am just one with The Lord. I know the answer you are looking for can be found in a writing by watchman nee. I could have brought it here for your answer but I decided not to. And this is the reason why. One day at work I was talking to a coworker who happened to be a minister. And he asked me if I wanted to read this book he had in his hand. It was a book by watchman nee. And I told him I did not want to read that book because The Lord was not in it. I think he got a little offended and he said, Are you saying that watchman nee is not a Christian? And I said, I did not say that, I said that The Lord is not in that book, but I have a book that The Lord is in. And that I do read. I know this answer will not be popular, but I did read the answer to your question and I did not find wisdom in it. The Lord is so much more than that, and not in that book. Being soulish brings glory to self and being spiritual brings Glory to God. I can only bring Glory to God no matter what condition I am in. Blessings.
