    The Rich man and the Beggar, Part 8

    Luke 16 (NKJV) “So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom.” VERSE 24 “Then he cried and said, ‘Father Abraham...

    NO... that's not what he was saying at all, you're just vainly trying to force your eternal torment theory into the narrative to give your false theory support, but its not working, at least not to any true thinking Christian. I think you need to follow Sister Charity's suggestion and do a...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    So now not only have you fallen for the false doctrine of eternal torment as the wages of sin, but likewise the false doctrine that the soul is immortal, two of the nominal church's primary errors. Now you believe that "worms" are immortal too, Nonsense!, wake up, the Lord was using a metaphor...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    In the same Chapter here where Paul speaks of knowing the fear of God, he couples it with the love of Christ in Verse 14, "For the love of Christ constrains us." For example, we see at times such an extreme love between two individuals on earth, that one person actually fears lest he hurt or...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    If you choose to go by the direct wording so be it, I myself prefer to go by the whole counsel of the word of God on the matter knowing that the scriptures do not contradict themselves, that God's plan is one complete harmonious whole. It is evident that you have a very narrow and incomplete...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    Excuse me did I say it was a direct quote, do you see any quote marks. You have heard of "paraphrasing" haven't you? Here's what I said, "many will awake from the dust of the earth to great shame and age-lasting contempt" Here's the direct quote, “And many of those who sleep in the dust of...

    The word "fear" as used in these texts is not associated with, an emotional response, as in fear of danger, pain or judgment, the condition of being fearful or afraid, no it has to do with reverence, respect, veneration. “Reverence God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has...

    The Rich man and the Beggar, Part 7

    Luke 16 (NKJV) Having now considered Verses 23-26 from a literal perspective we would now like to consider them as they were intended from a figurative or parabolic perspective. “There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there...

    The Rich man and the Beggar, Part 6

    Luke 16 (NKJV) We continue now with Verses 24-26 of the parable of the Rich man and Lazarus. For the sake of argument we are taking a look at this parable from the prospective of those who insist that it is to be taken literally to determine whether it be sound and scriptural. Thus far in our...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    God does not draw men out of fear, he draws them out of love. No one could honestly love someone whom they feared. They may fringe love, but it would not be true love, and He who reads the heart would see right through it. Know this for a fact that all those who believe in this God-dishonoring...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    Stay the course my sister, remember our Lord's words to fact that the darkness hates the light, i.e. error hates the truth because it exposes it for what it is. We are but lights upon a hill and are to let our lights shine out into the darkness even though we know the darkness does not...

    Failed Prophecies

    I would not go so far as to call him an idiot, just a misguided and deluded prophet, no more or less than the others mentioned. Most were more science fiction writers than they were prophets (teachers) of the Lord. Yes its true it would not be biblical to make a “prediction” per say, a mere...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    Sometimes you just have to brush the dust off your feet and move on. It is not for us to give the eye to see nor the ear to hear, only the Lord can do that. All we can do is pity those who are still held in bondage to Babylon, and pray that the Lord's kingdom come soon that they might be freed.

    The Rich man and the Beggar, Part 5

    Luke 16 (NKJV) As stated we believe our Lord’s statements in regards to the Rich man and Lazarus to be a parable, a FIGURATIVE portrayal of events, however some are still insistent upon believing it to be a LITERAL portrayal of events. With this in mind we should like to consider our next verse...

    The Rich man and the Beggar, Part 4

    Luke 16 (NKJV) Having in our previous posts taken a look at the first four verses of our parable (Verses 19-22) both from the literal perspective as well as the parabolic perspective we are now ready to examine Verses 23-26. Once again in order to prove that this is a parable we must first show...

    I notice that you are too lazy to read our answers, therefore we will no longer waste consecrated time on you as we see no profit in it, but will allow you to continue in the delusion which you have chosen for yourself.

    We explained these passages before, but it appears it was beyond your comprehension barring the fact that your eyes are closed and you only see as the creeds so teach.

    Likewise the Apostle states " So also is THE resurrection (the Chief or First resurrection) of THE dead (in Christ, the elect). The body (the soul, the being) is sown, in corruption (a fleshly, animal body), it is raised in incorruption (In immortality)." 1 Cor 15:42 "It" is the soul that is...

    How did you ever arrive at this conclusion? I think you need to do a little more study on the subject of parables and how they are presented.
