Are you saying the Bible is wrong? That's what Satan's messengers do to lead people to Hell.
Thanks for asking for clarification. No I don't say that what the bibles contains is wrong. It contains truth. Words that have processed from the mouth of God.

The Bible is coming to pass right now! World Government, Mark of the Beast, cashless society, "as it was in the days of lot" ....

And MOST important, Israel is back Home, in the Land of the Bible!

Stick with the Bible, your opinions can lead you to Hell.
There are opinions, some may be truth some not. But truth is truth. Wouldn’t you agree. Hopefully we are following the same Good Shepherd Who communicates with His sheep personally and individually. His words, instructions that He reveals to you are specific to you. Isn't this fantastic! He loves and relates to you independently, uniquely, specifically and differently to me at any particular time and situation.

Yeah, the Bible is Truth! Opinions are not.

Sure. God's truth is God's truth. Just as God's will is God's will. Isn't it super comforting knowing that our Divine Daddy is sovereign and all powerful over all of His creations. And yet He loves us as individual children on this minute planet.

Are you referring to Jesus, God of the Bible who warned us of Hell Fire?

The Creator Who came to this planet to die for His sheep. He is known by the name Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God. And sits with His Father as our Good Shepherd feeding His sheep what proceeds from the mouth of His Father.

You mean Jesus Who mentioned THE EVERLASTING FIRE several times? Who said BILLIONS of humans will burn in Hell FOREVER?

The rebellious will be tried and judged, sentenced to serve time for their crime which they deserve.

Actually, if I'm being honest, I've done my share of sin, crime, offences and deserve to spend time in confinement, having what freedom I have taken away forever.

Of what Jesus, God in human form, could see and know, He shared. Back then He didn't know all things of course. But now that He's glorified and sits with the Source of all knowledge He has access to all truth.

Back then Jesus didn't know timeframes, that is, times when things would happen like when He would return. Nor did He know what would happen in His future, who would sit at His left or right in His coming kingdom. But He knows now.

Maybe Jesus didn't know about the restoration of those serving time in the lake of fire or He did but wasn't allowed to share it. Maybe He did and it just wasn't recorded anywhere or it got lost or omitted.

Whatever be the case, I know that every created being will be redeemed and reconciled to their Creator. And Satan will sit at his Creator's left. Like Jesus, I don't know the exact moment of time in the future. I know it's not in this current age but one of the ages to come.

IOW, you don't even know that Jesus is God of the Bible! And you don't even read the Bible. So all you have is your unBiblical opinions, ZERO!

Of course! No reason whatsoever to think it's not literal. BILLIONS of humans will wish it isn't literal.

Rev 20 They will be TORMENTED day and night FOREVER ....

Couldn't be any clearer! As Luke 16 describes what happens to the dead, still alive and crying! Jesus didn't make up horror stories. He warned us several times!

Matthew 13:49-50
49 So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just,
50 and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
So you are aware that an 'age' is 'ever and ever' and a 'period'. According to the Greek, use of the word 'aiōn'.

What each ongoing aiōn the Creator restores, redeems and reconciles all to Himself I don't know. But I'm certain Jesus and His Father does.

Actually, it just occurred to me that I can go to them this afternoon and ask Them. I'll do it now.

A fantastic truth is this, once I was definitely lost but the Good Shepherd came and found me. Now I am His and I hear His voice, just as He foretold 2000 years ago.

Yes, it's because I was found that I have this direct relationship with the True Shepherd Who is always speaking to His individual sheep. This is beyond amazing!

You said you don't read the Bible!!! You should have read the Bible. Jesus warned you.

1 Timothy 4:1-2
1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,

Yes this is happening for sure. Satan is carrying out his role very well.

Yet at the same time Christ is speaking to His sheep who hear His voice. We don't listen to others voices, but rather reject and move away from them.

This is why I practice listening to Jesus voice and encourage others to do the same.

I studied the bibles for years and I was still a lost sheep. It was the Spirit of Christ Who drew me to Christ. He gave me ears to hear and eyes to see Christ as my Rescuer. He has continued to reveal more of Christ ever since. Do I read the bible to maintain our relationship? No. We just regularly communicate with each other. Pretty simply really.

The Spirit carries me along, leading me into Truth. Jesus and His words are truth.
