When I tell the kids to get a few ice creams I generally mean about five. I guess Jesus must of had the same number in mind when he used the word, 'few'. :ummm:
Luke 17:26 is clear--these last days are nom different than Noah's day= 99.9% mislead to destruction.

No mortal knows who is saved--1) they have never seen a single name written in Gods book of life-2) they cannot read another's true heart-3) they do not know who will endure until their end.
Only blind guides assure others-you are saved.
Not true and I can't be the only one that God has shown, in a vision, my name in the book of life.

Keiw-
You do not know who is born of God's Spirit and who is not. you just think you do. You are not the judge, Keiw.
No man can number those before the throne which is in heaven.
Jesus did--he said these last days are the same as Noah's day--99.9% perished in Noah's day.

Few are saved.

Few “ARE” saved reveals the “Gift of Salvation has BEEN Given and Received.”

The “numbers” of the SAVED, ( is in direct correlation to the Population at any given point in time, since the beginning of manKIND ).

This Worlds’ Population… At any given time in history / or presently IS “Guessing”.

There ARE REQUIRED Factors that Scripture Reveals…

A human Body MUST be CREATED…
A human Body MUST be BORN…
A human Body MUST be MADE…
A human Body MUST DIE…
A living soul MUST depart a “Physically” Dead Body…

The Gift of Salvation IS a GIFT …
* Expressly “GIVEN” a Living SOUL.
(AFTER a “BODILY” Death IS accounted IN Gods Books of Evidence.)

The MYSTERY…
All human Created body’s…
Which ARE Born… AND “MADE”…
IS… that BODY, “Receiving a Living SOUL, from God.”

The LIFE IN that Body, is Blood.
The LIFE IN that Soul, is Gods Breath

As long as that Body remains Physically Alive…
That Soul SHALL continue Living IN that Body.

When the Physical BODY Dies… that Living Soul Departs Out of that Physically Dead Body.

THEN…IS “that” LIVING SOUL “determined / judged BY God, TO BE MADE, Saved or Not.

MADE Saved?
That departed Living SOUL is Escorted TO Gods Kingdom… Heaven.

NOT MADE Saved?
That departed Living SOUL is Sent TO Hell.

SOULS… (not Departed out of human body’s … ACCOUNTED bodily Dead, but yet Remain Living Body’s)…
(Called: the man Has willingly laid down his bodily life, Crucified with Jesus’ Body, He willingly laid down to Death)
… AND the Living SOULS IN such Body’s,
….Accounted… SAV-ED … DONE, ACCOMPLISHED, NOT-revocable.
Spiritual Mystery:
MADE, by Gods Power and Promise…
Gods Life, (His Breath), Will NEVER depart out FROM THAT SOUL.

Departed Living Souls “IN hell”…

* From the Beginning of the creation and making of manKIND…some 6,000 + years ago…
living souls have been departing OUT of Dead human Body’s…
AND?
FEW of those Departed Living Souls WERE SAVED and have been escorted to Heaven, to Wait … Judgement and Sentencing.

MANY of those Departed Living Souls WERE “NOT” SAVED and Were sent to Hell to Wait … Judgement and Sentencing.

The cycle Regarding manKIND continues TO THIS Day, Creating and Making and Mortal existence…
Mortal Bodily Deaths, Bodily Deaths Crucified WITH JESUS…
Salvation of Living SOULS Gifted.
Salvation of Living SOULS NOT Gifted.


An Assured “Expectation”…IS human mortal Life SHALL Cease, being born.

An Assured “Expectation”…IS ALL human Living mortal Body Blood Life SHALL Die.

An Assured “Expectation”… IS ALL Unsav-ED SOULS SHALL have “it’s” Life (Gods Breath), departed such SOUL and such Life “RETURNED” to God.

An Assured “Expectation”… IS ALL lifeless dead BODY’S of human men and ALL lifeless SOULS… SHALL be Destroyed….by, through, of…The Power of God.


Matt 10:
[28] And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

The GIFT of Salvation of the Soul is “OFFERD” to Bodily Living humans.

The GIFT of Salvation of the Soul is “GIVEN”…ONCE…AFTER a Human Body IS Accounted…DEAD. (Physically or Spiritually)
(OSAS premise)

1 Cor 15:
[36] Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

Ecc 9:
[5] For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

Glory to God,
Taken
The Hebrew word for soul-( nephesh)Greek=psy-khe--The Hebrew word= means breath of life. That is what leaves one.

He has shown-0 that reality--More likely this occurred-2Cor 11:12-15)-- I can guarantee, you don't even know much of what Jesus actually teaches. Unless one OBEYS- they do not have Jesus( John 15:10-14)--- None who don't know what he actually teaches names are written in that book. I share 8 major teachings from him in all these sights i am in. They are in every translation on Earth, but 0 trinitarian believers know them, and reject them. I get banned from trinity sights for sharing them. It exposes them as false religions because they do not obey him.

YES-FEW find the way. Only the born again. If you walk in the Spirit you will live. Those in the flesh can not please God.
Since you say you are not spirit begotten- that is a problem. You are walking in the flesh and can not please God.

start listening to the scriptures and not ,man.

The soul in a man…is the vessel that holds the Life of Gods Breath.

Gods Breath, Word, Life, Truth, Power, body, head, hands, whatever is Spirit.

It is the Soul with Gods breath of Life… that departs the physically dead body.

There is alternate meaning to that. 1st it speaks of the real Jesus, there are 4 different ones being taught on Earth.
These declare and believe as you say-Matt 7:21-23--But Jesus assures them if they work iniquity( practice a sin) he will confess he never even knew them--proof what you are thinking about that passage is not a whole truth. But a partial truth that other passages go along with it to make it a whole truth.

I find the promises clear....they speak to my heart. Confidence and reassurance result.

Is it utterly impossible to have a decent conversation with you? It's been my experience with you. All you do is brag and accuse.
I have posed many questions to you for 2 years and you never answer a thing. you dodge, deflect, accuse and run.
Aunty Jane shuns me so she doesn't have to reply to me. Cowardly.
I thank you for at least attempting to communicate, but it is really a pathetic display of character.

Only blind guides assure others-you are saved.
when a comment is not directly addressed in the Scriptures, you go to other texts to draw principles and precepts from the wealth of wisdom in the Bible. For example, one passages that bears on this issue is 1 Tim 2.4. Here, we are told about God's nature, it says, "I want all people to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth." Do you think God would go contrary to his nature and send all the people in Noah's day to hell, all the while wanting them all to be saved.

Rom 11:32
God has consigned all people to disobedience so that he may show mercy to them all.
How did God show mercy to all the people in Noah's day.

There are many, many other passages in Scripture that speak to God's dealing with all the people, especially his stated desire to save all people. People don't go to hell because they have sinned, they go to hell if, and only if, they reject God's offer of salvation. If you don't understand this, you need to study about Christ on the Cross and to assist you in that, read this verse:
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:

2 Cor 5.19. God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

If Christ be lifted up, he will draw all men unto himself

Very true. Many Christians do not believe this because many do not believe Jesus actually died. And if he wasn't dead he certainly could not have been raised from the dead.

I would almost agree with this whole post, but hell?
No sir.

A flood was coming so he had Noah build an Ark for whoever wanted in....that's mercy.
Did God cause the flood? Nahhh, no more than God caused fire to come down from the sky on Hiroshima and Nagasaki with the Atom bomb.
It is wicked men in conjunction with demons who steal, kill and destroy. (John 10:10)

I was speaking of a man and his soul.
What does that have to do with an animal and it’s soul?
Nada.

Your point and accusation is silly.
Fish are also called supper.

Maybe you could get another 100 on the Ark, but the whole world was destroyed. Remember, God created man to seek after Him. Man knows that there is a God, he is to be worshiped and he will one day give an account to God after death.
