    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    You contrast what Jesus said in Matthew 5:48 "Be perfect as your heavenly father is perfect" I guess when Heb 6:1 states "Let us go onto perfection" - you diss that too?

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    Interesting that "the children of the kingdom shall be cast into outer darkness" (Matthew 8:12) - The word 'eternal' in the NT is always the greek word 'aionious' which is plural for aion, there can't be eternal judgment since Matthew 12:20 states A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking...

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Yeah, because all have walked in the flesh, unto death. Those quoting 'no condemnation' usually alway leave off the last part of the verse.

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    I Cor 15:28 makes the final resolution pretty clear - "And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God MAY BE ALL IN ALL." Probably the "All Things" Romans 11:36 speaks of. "All Things" makes an...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    I'm not a theologian, but Rom 9:16 states, It's not of him that willeth or him that runneth, but God that shows mercy. What is spiritual fire you ask - you mean like the Baptism of Fire? Or, like Isaiah 4:4 states When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and...

    When Jesus comes back, what will you like to talk to him about for eternity?

    Won't that be fun, dancing on golden streets and talking to Jesus for eternity? Sure can't wait for the Rapture, that'll be fun, whisked up into the sky hanging out in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.

    "DEATH AND HELL SHALL BE CAST INTO LAKE OF FIRE" (REV 20:14) " THE CARNAL MIND IS DEATH"(ROM 8:6)

    This is an interesting question - how is death cast into the lake of fire? Anyone have any ideas?

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    I'm not sure if you are referring to hades or gehenna, from what I understand, the word hell was first place in translations beginning in the 1600's. David said in pslam 139:8 if he made his bed in sheol, thou art there. and when jonah was in the whale, he said out of the belly of hell i cried...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    What was his ulterior motive? He just asked your response to Romans 11:36, and as christians we are supposed to give testimony to the hope in us as colossians says. Not reject people just because they don't see things are way. I appreciate you response, but if it says All things came out of...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    Does perish in John 3:16 mean Eternal Damnation? I'm not a theologian, but what others have told me is the greek word for perish is apollumi or some thing like that. Mark 4:38 uses the same word perish when the disciples were in the boat, did they also fear eternal damnation? All I know is in...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    He asked you a question about Romans 11:36, which you have not responded to. Why would you be waiting for him if you banned him? His name does not highlight when I type it in. I'm not a theologian, but I notice those mentioning Mark 9 on other forums always leave off verse 49 - "for all shall...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    Why use a phrase like 'Unending Death' which is not in the Bible? I prefer to believe that God's mercy endureth forever, and he will give life to all like Romans 5:18 states - "Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    I'm not a theologian, but God damning people for eternity does not feel right with the Jesus I know. It makes me cringe, I thought Jesus paid the price for all the sins of everyone? How can people really love God knowing he is burning people for eternity?

    There is no death in Jesus. Excellent post @Kriesal, you never see posts like this in most christian forums. They usually stick to lame topics with no depth.

    What a powerful scripture. I wonder why the others here have not responded to it. @Kreisel - Have you heard of J Preston Eby? he is an excellent Bible teacher, especially his Savior of the World Series Let me know what you think.
