    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    I remember one day when my wife and I were dating before we got married. I tried to impress her by getting a book on Portuguese (Brazillian) and share my knowledge based on the book. When I started to speak she was correcting me non-stop. She said you would not say certain things in that book...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    The problem is that not all scholars agree on what the Greek says. So are you saying you know more than scholars and what makes your interpretation on the Greek better than their own? The KJB Translators were experts in Greek. They spoke, wrote, and read it fluently. I am pretty sure you...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    I don’t trust your Greek or the Greek of those you quote. Why? Well, chances are you are not a Greek expert. Chances are they are not Greek experts, either and they have a bias to their tradition of ECT because that is all they have ever known and it has been ingrained in them without...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    5. Explaining Revelation 20:10: “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.” (Revelation 20:10). First, the devil, the beast and the false prophet are demons...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    3. Explaining Mark 9:44: “Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.” (Mark 9:44). In Mark 9:44, and Mark 9:48, Jesus quotes Isaiah 66:24, which is a part of Scripture where Isaiah tells us about how the carcases of the wicked will be viewed by those who worship the Lord (i.e...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    Popular Eternal Torment Verses Explained: There are only about 5 major verses in Scripture that appear at first glance to teach Eternal Torment. Daniel 12:2 Matthew 25:46 Mark 9:44 (Same: Mark 9:48) (Similar to Matthew 25:41). Revelation 14:11 Revelation 20:10 But all of these verses can be...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    As for the Lake of Fire: Is it forever or is it a place where the wicked will eventually perish? Well, we need to keep in mind that the King James Bible is the Bible that existed for hundreds of years as THE BIBLE long before the Modern Translations showed up. The KJB influenced even the...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    Explaining Hell: Hell is a very real and literal place of torment that no person should desire to be. The flame will torment people. However, many have made hell out to be something that it is not. Hollywood and hellhouses at churches give us a picture of hell that the Bible does not...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    God is into fair justice: Luke 12:47-48 says, 47 "And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. 48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    I remember defending Eternal Torment way back when I first was wet behind the ears in studing the Bible. Now, I look back and I realize I was just blindiy following what others said and I did not truly dig deep on this study myself. I remember reading one article when I studied this issue and...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    SOMETIME AFTER JESUS 2ND COMING & THE ARMAGEDDON BATTLE: The Earth is A Dark & Desolate Wasteland: • Jeremiah 4:23 ERV, Jeremiah 4:24 AMP, Jeremiah 4:25 ERV, .. Jeremiah 4:26a ISV, Jeremiah 4:26b WEB, Jeremiah 4:27 GWT “I looked at the earth. It was empty; there was nothing on it. I looked at...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    You are misunderstanding the timeline of future events. This is referring to the “end of the world.” When does the “end of the world“ officially happen? Well, in Revelation 19:11-21, we get Jesus coming back, right? Jeremiah 4:23-27 talks about the aftermath of Christ’s battle. The earth is...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    There really is nothing left to discuss. I said what I needed to say with the Word of God. I am extremely busy with other things I am doing for the Lord. Good day to you all in the Lord. May the Lord Jesus bless you all.

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    Jude 1:14 "Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints," 2 Corinthians 10:6 "And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled." We also have the saints making themselves ready for "the Marriage Supper of the Lamb" (Revelation 19:7-10) right...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    Again, the events do not match if you read them side by side. God's Word should connect and make sense. It seems like you are shoehorning in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 sometime shortly before Christ's 2nd Coming in Revelation 19. That is just adding something that is not there. If it was to...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    Again, comparing 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 and Revelation 19:11-21 side by side clearly shows that these are not the same event. You got saints going up in one event, and saints coming down in the other event. So they are not the same event.

    Do you believe Spirit baptism replaces water baptism?

    I believe water baptism is necessary. In fact, I believe it is a essential. I believe it is a part of our faith and the just live by faith. Faith is how we gain access to God’s grace (Romans 5:2). Water baptism generally today will happen after they are saved by God’s grace. But I don’t...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    This is why I believed you did not regard 1 Thessalonians as inspired Scripture. You call this a “so-called catching up event.” 1 Thessalonians 4 16 ”For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ...

    The Jesus Revolution

    The real truth about Lonnie Frisbee: https://www.wayoflife.org/reports/lonnie_frisbee_and_the_jesus_movement.php Chuck Smith made a false prediction that the Apocalypse would come in 1981. There are other problems involving Chuck, as well. In either case, the movie is not telling you the...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    Because 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 talks about a "catching-up event" (Which sounds like a Rapture).
