    The Smoke of their Torment Ascends Forever

    Let's not forget that Jesus spoke it as a parable, a semi-fictious story, in order to deliver a single truth. Do you know what that single truth is?

    The Smoke of their Torment Ascends Forever

    Just exactly as it says: day time or night time, 24/7 as long as they are physically alive. All of such do not have eternal existence of any kind.

    The Smoke of their Torment Ascends Forever

    > I won't repost the scriptures here, but smoke is carbon atoms, and therefore can and do exist in space, beyond our atmosphere. "In space, there is no air, then how is smoke coming out from the rocket? When the fuel is used it creates smoke. This smoke is not needed in the rocket so it is...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    It's actually very simple. Through faith in Jesus, and by the power of His resurrection, WE HAVE overcome death, and HAVE been GIVEN the Gift of eternal life. 1 John 5:12. John.11[26] And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    I wasn't inferring anything, I was just going to "the big picture" of God's plan for our salvation. To keep it simple, the entirety of it all, ever since Adam lost the hope for eternal life, bringing eternal death upon all of us, God has been working and suffering over us, hoping that every...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    Actually, Christ's blood was required by God the Father to be shed for the Father's sake as well as ours. Heb.9[22] And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. Without it, God the Father could not permanently dwell within us, and of...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    So then, through your faith in Jesus as your Savior, you still view yourself as being under God's condemnation.

    Is there new Revelation of Truth Needed?

    Ziggy quoted: Jer 31:22 How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man. Gal 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. > In light of your...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    Agreed! John.17[4] I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. However, what most don't reference or understand is what exactly were the works of God that He gave Jesus to do and "finish", while in the mortality and likeness of our flesh? The six...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    By your own words, you have misunderstood my simple analogy, and have purposely misconstrued it for your own way of thinking. You have not yet perceived that the ultimate goal of God the Father and God the Son, is TO SAVE as many as possible of the human race, from the judgment of eternal death...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    You missed the point of what God the Father gave. Jesus is called "The Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world". The sacrifice of His Son, was just as important for the Father, as it is for us. For without it, God could never permanently dwell within man that He created.

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    If you have children, then you might relate to this following fictitious analogy: Your neighbor's child is drowning in a pond, infested with Alligators. You and your only son, are the only two people available to save the drowning child. You can't swim, but your son can. You agree with your son...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    At the cost of Jesus' sacrificial death and the shedding of His innocent blood, God the Father is now able to win souls back to Himself, from the judgment of eternal death, at no cost to us, but to believe in the power of Jesus' blood as the full atonement for our redemption*. By our faith in...

    "The word was a god"?

    In the garden of Gethsemane, when Jesus prayed to His Father, He said this: KJV-John.17[5] And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. JW/NWT- John 17:5 So now, Father, glorify me at your side with the glory that I had...

    Is there new Revelation of Truth Needed?

    I find that it's not the scriptures that pose a problem for our understanding, but rather how it is that we all go about interpreting them. For all who have been born again by God's Holy Spirit, we are clearly shown by Jesus who it is that shall BE OUR interpreter of the truth of Jesus. John...

    The Many Mansions in the House of God.

    Through the mind of Christ, and not our own understanding, let's continue in His knowledge of how it is that because of our faith in Jesus, we are now made to be the many [garnished]* mansions in God's House, who is Jesus. John 8 [34] Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you...

    What is the Price Jesus Paid?

    It is quite evident to all here, that you choose to neglect the understanding of the words purchased and/or paid in the English language, as well as the Greek, for your own purposes. As to why, no one knows. Because you are not offering your personal interpretation, we can assume that is...

    Who is Jesus to a Non-Trinitarian?

    So, you are saying that Jesus was NOT eternal before the world was created. Maybe these scriptures will change your mind, if you are so inclined: Hebrews 10[4] For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. [5] Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he...

    Was Jesus the man perfect? The Perfect Man?

    Did satan speak a truth, putting his own spin on it? Luke 4[9] And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: [10] For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee...

    Was Jesus the man perfect? The Perfect Man?

    When Jesus declared the words "it is finished" in the garden of Gethsemane and on the cross (John 17:4 and 19:30), not many understand that He was referencing the six works of God, that was prophesied of Him to accomplish. Dan.9[24] Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people AND upon thy holy...
