ok, then let me remind you again: and as i earlier wrote to you, i'll write again also -- that the scripture tells us exactly why people, in fact the majority of people, choose & receive damnation: And this is the condemnation, that The Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness...

crazy, i never took anatomy & physiology.. had no idea there were instructions for that

hmm ((consults inspired text)) Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 3438: μόνη μόνη, μόνης, ἡ (μένω) (from Herodotus down), a staying, abiding, dwelling, abode: John 14:2; μόνην ποιεῖν (L T Tr WH ποιεῖσθαι, as in Thucydides 1, 131; Josephus, Antiquities 8, 13, 7; 13, 2, 1), to make an (one's)...

because the resurrection is here described as a change of clothes, not a recreation of soul which was annihilated upon undressing. i think we have to put this together with several things, including Revelation 21:9-10, where an angel tells John, "I will show you the Bride, the Wife of the...

you said you believe He prepares a room for "all of us" who do you mean by "all" ? how many is that? proportionately?

There is an equivalence with the parables that precede it. It is given as one of a series of three together - not by accident. The wicked and lazy servant equals the 5 foolish virgins equals the evil servants who beats the other servants. The good and faithful servants equal the 5 wise servants...

If we do not forgive others, we will not be forgiven

yes i think we understand each other & aren't at odds -- and just to say it clearly, for the sake of anyone later reading this and trying to follow along: i do not categorically disagree with the interpretation that the talent-weights represent knowledge of the Kingdom of God i believe that...

oh look, you just incidentally destroyed 'soul sleep' temporary-annihilation-upon-physical-death teaching. cool

specifically: if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. (Matthew 6:15) clearly unforgiveness exists. you had said you suspect God prepares a room for "all of us" ((link to your comment)) - which, i took your 'all' to mean all mankind, in...

pretty sure He has the blueprints jejeje He is the Architect Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith (Hebrews 2:2)

they all relate to whether unitarian universalism is true or not. you have been giving the impression that you believe it is true - that is the subject at hand.

when God kills, wounds, takes vengance and judges -- that is not evil. judgement and vengeance belong to Him. it is good when He judges. this informs you what the correct understanding of Isaiah 45:7 is. He creates peace, and the opposite of peace. the opposite of peace isn't 'evil' it's...

this must be put together & understood with: This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all (1 John 1:5) if you do not believe God is good, you cannot possibly understand scripture. the word in Isaiah 45:7 that kjv puts...

i gave you this clear opportunity to glorify Him =] you're welcome

of course; quite easily He knows you and me: I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind (Jeremiah 17:10) There is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. (Hebrews 4:13) you are evil, and i am evil: There is...

wow ok here's just a couple: Matthew 6:15 Matthew 7:13 Matthew 7:14 Matthew 7:23 Matthew 8:12 Matthew 12:32 Matthew 13:30 Matthew 13:42 Matthew 18:35 Matthew 20:16 Matthew 22:13 Matthew 22:14 Matthew 25:30 Matthew 25:33 Matthew 25:41 Mark 11:26 Mark 16:16 Luke 12:10 Luke 13:25 Luke 13:27 Luke...

He says not everyone will be saved. He says the way to life is narrow and few find it. He says the way to destruction is broad and many follow it to its end. He says all who do not believe Him are condemned already, and will be cast into the lake of fire. do you believe Him or do you not?

you need the context of Habakkuk's statement in order not to butcher its interpretation. God is sending Assyria, a brutal pagan people ((whom Jonah preached to)) to punish Israel's idolatry. Assyria will conquer Israel and carry them away into captivity. Habakkuk is aghast. he complains to...

i believe scripture. i believe Christ and all the things He says, some of which i wrote to you your comment sure sounds like you are rejecting it . . ? why don't you just say what you really mean
