Welcome aboard Jorry. I hope you find your time her fruitful.

If we're probably all wrong, how do you know God loves you, he is love, and he loves us all? How do you even know He exists at all if we're probably all wrong?

Let's start with the Gospel, which is the heart of Christianity. The Gospel is the good news that: 1. Jesus Christ lived a sinless life of perfect obedience in our place. 2. He died on a cross to pay the penalty for our sins. 3. He was raised to life on the third day for our...

Hi Frosty, I understand what you're going through. When you're dealing with the unregenerate (unbelievers) you're dealing with those whose hearts are hardened against God. These, as the Apostle Paul tells us in Romans 1, suppress the truth in their unrighteousness. So unless God opens their...

I sincerely hope that I simply misunderstand what you mean by this. If not, it appears that the number of those Bible-disparaging, Bible-optional believers on this board is growing daily. This is very sad.

This is just a sample of what the Scriptures say about 'Hell.' There is so much more. Allow me to highlight the NT definition of Hell and the fate of those who enter therein from just the few passages I quoted above: eternal fire eternal punishment eternal destruction unquenchable fire...

Well you don't recognize Aspen's 'interpretation' as RC teaching because it's not.

The 'letter' in your proof-text refers to the Mosaic/Old Covenant carved on tablets of stone. Paul calls this the ministry of death because the Law, which says what should and should not be done, can only condemn and kill. There's no grace in the bare Law. It communicates no power for obedience...

Grace began from before the foundation of the world with God's decree to save a people for himself though Jesus Christ. Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, Eph 1:4 even as he chose...

So the words of Paul, David, Moses and Jeremiah are not God-breathed as The Apostle Paul says in 2 Timothy 3:16? Did not Jesus say that the Scriptures bear witness about himself? Will not this Scriptural witness stand as a testimony against unbelievers on the Day of Judgment? Joh 5:39 You...

Joh 12:48 The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

Once again, I never said that it did.

2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God. . . The word 'Scripture' there a translation of the Greek word 'graphe.' It's said to be breathed out by God. While the Scriptures are not God, which is something I never said, they are the 'utterances' of God as Paul calls them in Rom. 3:2. The...

Do human judges break the law when they deprive a criminal of their freedom or even mete out the death penalty? No, they're not breaking the law. They're upholding the law and seeing that justice is served. You're problem Aspen is that your view of man is too high and your view of God is too...

I explained why such a belief is ridiculous quite clearly and you addressed none of it. You're simply reasserting your error. Allow me to explain, once again, the problem with your irrational view. What God says flows from his character or nature and expresses his character or nature. To say...

Yeah, I caught that in a previous post. Thanks. Could you imagine telling people that when they find themselves in eternal punishment, wailing and gnashing their teeth, (Matt. 13:42) they should remember that God is showing them mercy?

Eternal PUNISHMENT is still mercy? You have a mighty strange view of mercy.

There is so much I could post from Scripture on this topic. But Aspen, if the unambiguous teaching of Jesus in this single passage, quoted below, is not weighty enough for you, I'm simply not going to waste my time with one who makes Scripture conform to their own emotional preferences and...

The post above is correct. Mohamed supposedly began receiving revelation for the Koran in the beginning of the 7th century AD. This is where Islam has it's beginning. You may want to utilize the resources of the following site in you studies; AnsweringIslam.org The is an index to Islam in...
