    Who gets the worst punishment in the LoF?

    This expression, "Lake of Fire" occurs only in the book of Revelation and is clearly symbolic. The Bible gives its own explanation and definition of the symbol by stating: “This means the second death, the lake of fire.”(Revelation 20:14; 21:8) The symbolic quality of the lake of fire is...

    Is seeking for Signs today, a lack of faith?

    When Jesus Christ was on earth, he gave his listeners a lesson in observing signs and acting accordingly. He was talking about something of far-reaching importance. The Bible reports: “The Pharisees and Sadducees approached him and, to tempt him, they asked him to display to them a sign from...

    1 Peter 2:24 LSB vs NASB95

    Most Bibles say Christ was “crucified” rather than “impaled.” This is because of the common belief that the torture instrument upon which he was hung was a “cross” made of two pieces of wood instead of a single pale, or stake. But it's tradition, not the Scriptures why they translate this way...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Just as you believe I accept the word of men,I'm I believe it's you that will accept only the word of men. So you and I are always going to disagree.

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Actually it doesn't. But I know you disagree with what I've been stating concerning the manner of Jesus return. Just as I disagree with you.

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    God doesn't contradict himself either, and God's only begotten Son said the world wouldn't see him again and the world hasn't seen him. The only ones that saw him after his resurrection were his apostles and disciples. (believers)John 14:19 The scriptures tell us that now after Jesus has went...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    You can continue to believe that the unrighteous get everlasting life, but they don't. The unrighteous get everlasting punishment and that everlasting punishment is eternal death. Death is the punishment for sin. Those God judges unworthy of life will never exist as living persons again. Because...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Ever read where scripture speaks about everlasting life? Show where in scripture that the unrighteous will get everlasting life. As I said the scriptures teach only the faithful the righteous get everlasting life. Everlasting fire is talking about everlasting destruction, which means they're...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Actually, I'm not, you simply don't want to accept the fact that John was told Revelation in signs, so a lot of Revelation is symbolic. I know that the eyes that say they see Jesus at Revelation 1:7 is the eyes that pierced Jesus, which was a roman soldier. I'm not going to teach people that...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    I'm not evading scripture. Nowhere in scripture does it say the unrighteous will get everlasting life. That means those God judges as the unrighteous will be unworthy to live. They will experience eternal death. For eternity they will never exist as living perons.

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    God has never promised eternal life or everlasting life for the unrighteous. It's those that love God and exercise faith that are the ones that get everlasting life. The unrighteous, those who don't love God and don't exercise faith in him they will suffer eternal destruction, eternal...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    I believe it's called reasoning on the scriptures. It's something God's servants do, don't you think? I mean you know as well as I do that in the scriptures Jesus talked about Gehenna. Many Bible translations have translated this Greek word as Hell, Hellfire, or fires of Hell. These translators...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Well fire is symbolism that the chaff will be destroyed completely, and eternally, that they are no longer worthy of life so will never live again. Will it be literal fire that destroys them? I don't know.

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Well that's in disagreement with John 14:19 and 1 Timothy 6:15, 16. Jesus said at John 14:19 the world wouldn't see him again and that's exactly what happened. When Jesus was resurrected from the dead, no one but believers saw Jesus, he appeared only to believers. He didn't once appear to a...

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    It doesn't matter where anybody studied, what I said is true. Seems to me you're the one who wants people to believe lies
