    No Escape : From Hell

    Myself I believe that the correct conclusion on any Bible subject would come from scripture alone, not anything I can say or you can say. And when I mean scripture I mean every scripture we can find, "all scripture". I do appreciate your Viewpoint and what you have to say.. :ntmetu but when it...

    No Escape : From Hell

    What are your thoughts? Doesn't everybody come from their own unique experiences and reasons for believing what they believe? Mark 12:30-31 IMO Even if we believe differently than the other person, but we ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’ wouldn't that be a powerful and positive foundation for...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Jesus gave us Salvation He paid the price in the first place, it is not from anything we do, it is a free gift, it's all about what Jesus did! So why do we do what Jesus commanded us? Answer: Matthew 28:20, Hebrews 5:9, Luke 8:21

    No Escape : From Hell

    Have you ever wondered: Why would Jesus offer Everlasting life, if people already go on living after death in heaven or hell? John 3:36

    The Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31)

    Hell it's a real place Job prayed to go there. AMP “Oh, that You would hide me in Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead), That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past, That You would set a definite time and then remember me [and in Your lovingkindness imprint me on your heart]...

    The Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31)

    Some scriptures say words about eternal fire and torment, other scriptures say the Wicked will simply vanish, you will look for them and they will be nowhere to be found. The fire that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes, is no longer burning, so that means the words "Everlasting Fire" is not...

    What is the state of the dead in the afterlife?

    Starting with Genesis 3:19 "until you return to the ground, since you were taken from it. For you are dust, and you will return to dust.” Daniel 12:2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt. New King...

    What is the state of the dead in the afterlife?

    Jesus also says they perish at John 3:16 and at John 3:36 Jesus says they will not see life. Why do you have to pick a perspective that does not agree with majority scriptures from Genesis to Revelation Why ignore the majority?

    You're exactly right just read the scripture the words themselves explain the meaning.

    What is the state of the dead in the afterlife?

    I use the Bibles on Biblehub.com most of the time, aren't these the same Bibles that you use? Jesus said let the dead bury the dead. The word dead here is used in two different ways, does that make me just like the devil if I choose a perspective that agrees with the majority of the scriptures?

    What is the state of the dead in the afterlife?

    Aunty Jane and I belong to the same faith, but we both support our fundamental beliefs by scripture context alone! But we both may have a different way to explain it?

    What is the state of the dead in the afterlife?

    Please, should't the scripture context be important to our understanding? Not my words. Only scriptures should support our fundamental beliefs, do you agree?
