    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    This idea that man is immortal is the lie Satan began at the Garden of Eden. Yeah, immortal soul doesn't exist in the scripture, however, it seems to me everyone who died, moved on to Sheol, Jesus went to Sheol, paradise, and prison parts of it, and was raised again by the spirit of God, on the...

    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    Guess people can consider the information then. If you choose to sin all you want all it leads to is death. Death is something one should be most terrified of, right? It's when the curtain closes.

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    Idk why people say these things. "Did this come from scripture, or some church teaching?" Just sharing information to consider, whether you took it all in or not... I cant tell. And if we can't freely think and decide for ourselves, and share with one another, idk what the point is in sharing...

    Should Christians celebrate Christmas, Halloween?

    Most people desire to continue to hold on to what they have been traditionally taught. All the best, sir, and you have a good one, besides, the Gospel is just one part of the news, and the Revelation, and the other letters are the rest. There are people out there, who say there is no need for...

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    Hello Lamb, Thank you for reading anything that was written. If you look that word up in a different language, that just english you can find it relates to also "observer." A snake can observe it's surroundings to some form or effect. The orangutang thing is not anything new, I believe a man...

    One more thing that comes to mind is how the Temple was set up. You had the outer court where anyone, no matter what nation they are from, they were welcome to go in the outer court and participate, during the celebrations, and sacrifices. They would stand out and look towards the temple, during...

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    Hello Hillsage, From my lessons and gleanings from the bible over the years, has gotten me to consider that the soul, is the image of God (it is the mind/will/emotions which all people have.) You can call it spirit if you would like to that doesn't bother me, however to me it is the soul which...

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    Hello Lamb, Something you said here reminds me of the simple lay out. God, God's Word, God's Spirit. God breathed life into Adam - he became a living soul. (Mind/will/emotions) - Image of God, mankind is created in. Adam and eve are shown as the first two to have open relationship with God...

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    It's always going to be simply faith in God, and looking to him that will matter. You may be right in your own interpretation, and that is okay with me, and I love you for who you are and just wanted to share overall something to consider; I have a friend who still believes that Jesus is still...

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    @Ritajanice They did start dying. Their connection from life was cut off - that connection with God who is spirit. Spiritual connection? Jesus said, documented in John's gospel, John 6:63 "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profits nothing; the words that i speak unto you, they are...

    Many fake Christians

    Its a whole lot an easier life just living by faith towards your Maker, and loving others as you go along the way. Getting invovled in peoples business, in the sense if they believe in God or not and then dynamically break them down some way, is to me in my opinion not good. Especially if they...

    The Limited Aspect of Christian Love - "I love you, but I don't like you."

    The best thing is to not ways people describe you as deter you from looking towards God in faith, and loving God first, and loving others along the way... Are you gonna like and agree with what one may say, think or believe? No. Does that mean to condemn and mistreat them, look down on them? No...

    Thank you for responding and seeing what is shared, I am okay with not sharing the scriptures I believe it's found with-in the first 4 chapters of Genesis. Have a good one.

    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    Could it also mean to ruin - a person who walks in darkness for a long time will come to some type of ruin, becoming destroyed within his mind/will/emotion before ever dying.

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    They did lose that close personal connection with the LORD when they were lead out of the Garden; that is where the 'dying spiritually' comes in, cause God did promise they would die, if they partook, but die how? They both lived for a long time before dying.

    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    Have you ever considering John the beloveds, version of peaks into heaven are like via, Revelation 21-22, though idk what heaven is like for a fact, there are some insights in those chapters finding people faithless outside the heavenly gates, and those of faith going to partake of the tree of...

    Who is the AntiChrist? (Identifying Him)

    All debatable (the dating of bible letters). It's by faith that we even believe God exists, and he pleased by that. Thank you for sharing what you have.
