That's false. That's not what righteousness is about. The righteous own up to their sins...and God forgives them. There is NONE righteous that never sins.




Of course...in human strength no one can walk at a holy standard.


Your sins are greater because, as a hypocrite, you insult holiness AND righteousness.


I offer the truth. If you don't go to the cross...and yet continue to disparage righteousness and holiness..then you will be judged along with all the other hypocrites in history. God is NOT a respecter of persons.


Only in your mind. You have a religious bent that you believe is there to save you...instead of just masking you away from the truth.


When I testify to that...the babies here will accuse me of trying to be saved by EXPERIENCE instead of the bible. That shows you what the spiritual IQ is around here.


Say it again..."saved" Now repeat and repeat until you stop feeling alone and "unsaved".

Quite the opposite. Salvation is a process...whereas holiness is not. Salvation is becoming more like Christ. And going from being a vessel of dishonour to one of honour. Have you read up to the verse that says...work out your own (individual) salvation with fear and trembling?

In a war...people are killed. But there are always MORE wounded than killed. So these come back from the war...blind, maimed, psychologically damaged....etc.

The 2 dimensional understanding of people who think they are saved to "go to heaven" don't understand how judgment works. As long as the pews are filled....
another post lacking the truth from Scripture and only ones subjective opinions and ideas.

I respect other people's beliefs and view points. Psalm chapter 37 document that the those judged by Jesus to be unworthy, will go into lake of fire. Thier souls are blotted out. They don't exist anymore. Jesus doesn't torture anybody. Revelation is 20, the wicked and spirtualty dead are judged by their works. Proverbs chapter 5, the wicked destroy themselves. Who's name is not found lambs book of life. Again, those judged unworthy will go with satan into lake of fire. Revelation chapter 20 and psalm chapter 37. God's election won't be at the judgement seat on judgement day. How's that?? Romans chapter 8, first Peter chapter 1, Isaiah chapter 65, God's Election are predestined, chosen before foundation of the world. The election are already judged by God, in the first earth age. The position for elect can't be volunteered for. Again, the election are predestined and foreordained. The election will reign with Jesus during the millennium. Documentation, Ezekiel chapter 44, Isaiah chapter 65, revelation chapter 20.

Your so right... This is exactly what God told Adam and Eve... Wait... crap... not here...

Cain whom actually killed His Brother got the business end of eternal torment ... Again... not here... What???


Gen 4:10 He said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to Me from the ground.
Gen 4:11 "Now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.
Gen 4:12 "When you cultivate the ground, it will no longer yield its strength to you; you will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth."
Gen 4:13 Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is too great to bear!"

So Glad Cain had no idea abour Eternal Torment.... As His comment "My punishment is too great to bear!"
would be a Joke!!!
Now... Moses is going to give us the Law of God..... What??? No eternal torment ... Pay attention


Mat 3:11 "As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Now what literal Fire has baptize you????

Mar 9:49 "For everyone will be salted with fire.

What Fire has salted you....

Luk 3:16 John answered and said to them all, "As for me, I baptize you with water; but One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the thong of His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Have you been baptize with fire... I Think Not!!!

Luk 12:49 "I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled!

You Think Fire is only for the dammed...
You speak as a Child... not knowing the fire of God

You mean I won't be able to help God torture the bad people that get sent to Hell?

The bible is very clear that there is eternal torment for the wicked. They will have a conscious existence in the afterlife.
Does this mean I'll be able to help God torture the bad people by sticking them with hot spears? Do you think God has his own Olympics where the good people (that's us) compete to see who can inflict the most horrific torture on the bad people? That would be a blast!

So I won't get to help torture them? There are a couple of neighbors on my street that I know aren't saved. I'm glad I'll never have to look at them again!

Bad people go into the Lake of Fire as soon as they die. In the end, Jesus will resurrect them in order to remind them of how terrible they are and then throw them right back into the Lake of Fire!

I'll be the one putting more coal and wood under the cauldron!

Jesus loves them He died for them, We should too. You should hope for their salvation. Not think you can help torture them.. Especially when you deserve that torture yourself

God is real.
Jesus is real.
The Devil is real.
Hell is real.

The torment that will be found in Hell that is literally cast into the Lake of Fire will be greater then the Torment that Jesus endured on the Cross to try to keep you out of Hell.
The Torment that Jesus endured on the Cross, helps us to understand the misery, the level of misery.... that will be found in Hell and the Lake of Fire.
Jesus's torment ended, and that is not the case for those who go to Hell.

Jesus said its better that you tear out you eye then to die and go to Hell.
He's not kidding.

Hell is not a garbage dump that exists outside of Jerusalem.
I should know, as ive been there quite a few times.

Always realize that the Devil would not want you to believe that Hell exists and He uses deceived people to try to deny its reality.

Here is Hell...

Hell was created before Adam was created. This means it existed before Jerusalem existed.

Hell was created for "the devil and his angels".

Unbelievers go there because they are "of your father the devil", so, where He ends up, the unbelievers end up., and that is not Heaven.
Whereas the born again end up with THEIR Father, who is The Father of Christ who is in Heaven.

Jesus spoke more about Hell than He spoke about Heaven.

If you die never being born again...

"Jesus said, you MUST be born again", = then you will go to Hell.

4. The lake of fire produces death not eternal torment. That's why this is called the second DEATH.



Reader,

The "2nd death" is simply the eternal continuation of the 1st Death found in Adam.

In other words.,, , "In Adam we all die" and in "Christ we are all made alive".

The 1st Adam brought sin and death to all mankind, and the 2nd Adam ( JESUS ) brings the offer of Eternal Life to all mankind, which ends "death".

Before Adam fell or "died", He was in Spiritual Union with God. When He "fell" , when he rebelled.... he lost spiritual union with God, that is defined as "death"...... so that is a loss of God's Eternal life that Adam had before he fell from it, or "died".

So, that is the 1st Death.....its spiritual separation from God.

= When a person is not born again...

Jesus said "you must be born again"< or you remain "in Adam", in "death".... that is to be spiritually separated from God.

To leave that "death" the 1st, is to be born again...... as then you have regained Spiritual Union with God, = Eternal LIFE that is found "in Christ".... that is the escape, by Spiritual BIRTH = FROM 1st Adam ""Death."""


The 2nd Death, is to remain in 1st Death, forever...after you literally die.
Literally... 2nd Death means, that you died on earth spiritually separated from God, never born again, in that First Death, and then you hit eternity. And in eternity there is no 2nd chance to be saved, to be born again OUT of 1st Death.
So, to now everlastingly remain in that spiritual separation from God, is the "2nd Death"....or a eternal spiritual separation from God.

That is the "2nd Death".

Where you will exist like that is ....>Hell, followed by the Lake of Fire.

How do you escape that eternal destiny that is originally designed "for the Devil and His angels"???

Jesus said..."you must be born again".......as that spiritual birth delivers you from "1st Adam death",....restoring you back to Spiritual Union with God, which is... = Eternal Life "in Christ".

The false teacher/ prophet does not understand the Bible , he needs to be born again. We should pray for his salvation

As we near the end of the book of Revelation we see the nations of the world being judged at a judgment called the The Great White Throne Judgment (GWT).

It reads as follows...

Rev. 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.


1. This judgment is for the people of all nations and follows 1,000 years after the judgment of the house of God.

2. There are 3 books opened at the GWT judgment..."books and another book" makes 3.

3. People at this judgment are judged by the works...not whether they accepted Jesus or God's grace.

4. The lake of fire produces death not eternal torment. That's why this is called the second DEATH.

5. Not everyone in the second resurrection is cast into the lake of fire. That is a religious contrivance. It's like saying.."everyone that did not have a place on the bus had to walk." Does that mean that everyone had to walk???


So in our time there is mostly religious confusion based on a lot of muddying the water with religious dogmas, fables, and superstitions that have crept in unawares by a lack of spiritual watchmen. I would think most believers have most of the above points wrong...and many have them all wrong. How can the modern religion derived from a historic muddling of Christianity get the bible so wrong???

Please refer to the point number for any challenges. Please TRY to act like a civil person when doing so! :) Thanks in advance.
#2. I think "another book" is just inclusive with books that are opened. The dead reprobates are standing there and those in Christ are standing there - Two groups of souls > Two books. What other book could there be?
In one book you have all unbelievers throughout history including all their sins. Is there a hearing at the end of time ... a line of billions of souls waiting for their turn while God goes over each and every sin (of which are thousands) ... "Throw this one into the flames ... next in line, proceed forward!" I can't picture that.
This brings to mind a couple verses: "And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment," Hebrews 9:27
So at death we are judged already. And I will go further than that; even those reprobates (whom inly God knows) who are still living, are already judged.
"He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
I think that those who have been in Hades are fully aware of what they did or didn't do and those sins are refreshed in their minds with sober clarity as if It just happened.
So a GWT Judgment would not require God to tediously go over trillions of sins, one by one, nor each soul individually, because they are already judged. This is not a court hearing or trial as we know it, it is just an immediate pronouncement, as fast as a twinkling of an eye and in a flash, the first earth, heavens, Hades and all who are in it, Death, Satan and His demons are burned in a fervent heat (2 Peter 3:10).
Now the other book includes those who have faith in Christ, have been born from above, saved and sealed by the Holy Spirit. What are we judged for? Our sins have been forgiven already; so it is not for sins. It is for our goods works and therefore rewards are given in accordance to our deeds. But is there waiting period
for our rewards? In the same way, I think we have already been rewarded in life and in eternity (not fully yet). But let's look at this verse:
"The nations were enraged,c
and Your wrath has come.
The time has come to judge the dead
and to reward Your servants the prophets,
as well as the saints
and those who fear Your name, both small and great—
and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”


When does that happen? Looks like at the 7th Trumpet, prior to the Millennial Kingdom.
What can we say then about the GWT Judgment? When we are finally resurrected, are we some how transported spiritually to that time of the GWT as we were when we were born again, transported back in time to the cross to die with Christ?

Let's look at the different types of ad hominem arguments you might find.
  • Abusive - This is where the person is directly attacked. ...
  • Circumstantial - Personal circumstances motivate a person's argument, so it must be false. ...
  • Guilt by Association - Due to an association to something negative, an argument is discredited.
hope this helps !!!

View attachment 31366
I know.... but Hell/Grave kinda suxs when you want to deal out justice as human... Thus you can only give out spankings to the living... like I do here...

(Ecc 12:7) and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit (Breath rûaḥ) returns to God who gave it.

(Psa 146:4) His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; In that very day his thoughts perish.

Given that Man does not possesses immortality.... and can't suffer forever... Who cares....

(1Ti 6:16) who alone possesses immortality (God) and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.

Yea.... BUT>>>> Does it matter that the other Paul wrote this 60 plus years after Jesus death and ressurection and countless other christian death ??


You still don't see what's going on do you....

The other Paul!!!
