    The answer of hell and its origins

    Jesus did sacrifice his life, meaning he sacrificed that human body his human life for mankind. Jesus had to die as human beings do, which means he would have to cease to exist as a living person. If you're saying he was still living somewhere during the parts of three days he was said to be...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    I don't care what Bible you use, the apostle Paul was talking about the Resurrection of the dead. That's the context of 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17. You're not going to convince me to deny the resurrection of the dead.

    The answer of hell and its origins

    The key to understanding the lake of fire is first the scriptures tells us the lake of fire is the second death, then the scriptures say that death and Hades are thrown into the lake of fire. So you can go on and on all you want to but you're not going to convince me that death which is thrown...

    Satan's deception.

    An angel who was a righteous angel when created, chose to dwell on improper or inappropriate thoughts when he started to believe he should be worshiped. He eventually acted on those improper thoughts when he lied about God when he told Eve she would not die if she ate from the forbidden tree...

    Satan's deception.

    When we choose to think or believe we deserve to be worshiped it is wrong, yes. But when we choose to believe we deserve to be worshiped therefore desire all glory, we are still CHOOSING to do something evil, we're not CREATING evil.

    Satan's deception.

    No you haven't created evil when you choose to sin, when you choose to sin you're choosing to do something evil, not create evil.

    Satan's deception.

    Like I said there's a difference between choosing to do evil and creating evil.

    Satan's deception.

    That's not creating evil, that's choosing to do evil. There's a difference between creating evil and choosing to do evil.

    Satan's deception.

    I disagree that God knowingly and willingly created an angel to be a Satan or a Devil. God created angels with the ability to make free moral choices, and one of those angels chose to become the Satan and the Devil by choosing to rebel against God's rulership. God didn't knowingly, and willfully...

    Satan's deception.

    The phrase from the beginning doesn't mean from the beginning that God created the angel that became the Satan and the Devil. The phrase, from the beginning, has to be looked at in the context it's written. So in scripture where is says Satan was a murderer from the beginning it doesn't mean...

    How does one be a "good" Christian?

    John 17:3 tells us that we have to know the only True God and the one the True God sent forth, Jesus Christ. So you do have to read the scriptures, which is how you come to know the true God and the one he sent forth Jesus Christ. Coming to know the True God and the one he sent forth helps us to...

    Satan's deception.

    God didn't created a Satan or a devil he created an angel who became the Satan and the Devil because of his rebellion against the True God. God didn't created this angel to be rebellious or disobedient

    Satan - Ruler of This World

    This world we're living in, which Satan is the ruler of, is going to be destroyed by God. So I agree we should not worry over the fate of the world we're living in. This world we're living in is going to be destroyed, nothing is going to stop God from doing that, and we should be happy when God...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    You're the one denying death Jack not the the Jehovah's Witnesses. You are the one claiming that a person continues living after death Jack. Not the Jehovah's Witnesses. You're going to lie about anyone who believes human beings actually do die and sleep in death until they're resurrected from...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Those of the heavenly hope who will be the ones who will be kings, priests, and judges with Jesus in that heavenly Messianic kingdom who have died before the second presence of Jesus Christ begins, they will be resurrected first. They will get a resurrection like Jesus who when he was...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Yes those who were faithful to Jesus who will be kings and judges and priests with Jesus in that heavenly Messianic kingdom who died before the second presence of Jesus Christ begins will be resurrected first when the second presence of Jesus Christ begins then those who are living on earth who...

    That's right Jack for parts of three days Jesus wasn't a living person

    The answer of hell and its origins

    By texting this above you're teaching me that must believe what you and others say because when someone disagrees with you they absolutely must be wrong or in error or going by their own doctrine because you're infallible right Jack you and never be wrong about what you say. You're the one...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Of course I've read Revelation 20:10 have you? My NWT at Revelation 20:10 has and asterisk beside the word torment which explains torment means restrained; imprisoned. So Revelation 20:10 means restrained in eternal death because the lake of fire in scripture is said to be the second death...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    No not a stretch, because you like many, deny death and eternal death. You instead teach that both faithful and unfaithful have eternal life, even though the scriptures have only taught that only the faithful are rewarded with eternal life.
