Mat 5:29, And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Mat 5:30, And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is...

No one has to go to the lake of fire, God has provided a way for everyone to escape such a fate as that. And it is so easy to do so, that anyone would have to be a fool to not take the Lord up on His offer of salvation; knowing that the alternative is in fact eternal torments in the lake of...

Everyone.

This scripture also teaches that faith is necessary. Baptism accomplishes a spiritual circumcision in that the body of the sins of the flesh is put away from the one who is baptized. But the similarity ends there. This scripture does not teach that baptism is to be done in infancy. Faith is...

Psa 19:7, The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. 2Ti 3:16, All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

I have already said my piece. But I do feel the need to repeat something. In Revelation 20:10, you need to consider that it is a very good possibility that this is speaking of the nature of what it means to be cast into the lake of fire; and is not speaking of the punishment of only the beast...

And that is the point. If you are going to try and save yourself by what you do (i.e. works / performance / law-keeping / obedience), you are going to fall miserably short. The only way to enter in is through faith in Jesus Christ....through accepting His death on the Cross as a...

I would be one of those teachers who would say that to be fallen from grace means loss of salvation, and here's why: Ephesians 2:8-9 tells us that we are saved by grace through faith...and this indicates to me that without grace, there is no salvation. Jesus never taught the disciples about...

@BOWnQUIVER, I have been enjoying your posts; while I have not looked at some of them in depth.

Good morning. Actually, I haven't gone to bed yet. It's about 1:10 AM where I am located.

That is too funny...:D:D:D

We are indeed accountable to God; and the standard that He holds us accountable to is His law. Of course I was referring to true Christians; those who have placed their faith wholly in what Jesus did for them on the Cross. You didn't come to Christ...you came to an imaginary version of Him...

Actually, it was given first to Abraham.

Two things (actually three): 1) the law is a schoolmaster to lead men to Christ (Galatians 3:24). 2) the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in those who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit (Romans 8:4). 3) The spiritual mind is at peace with God; for it is subject to the law of...

If your life were slowly being snuffed out, what does that feel like? What would it feel like at the end of such a process? Try holding your breath for about five minutes.

No, not at all.

The things that we do that are sins, when we are doing them, we are not doing what will amount to gold, silver, and precious gems at our bema seat judgment. So, there will be loss of reward because of our sins....while it is also true that the Lord doesn't remember them any more. After Jesus...

And we go round and round. I am saying that both jew and gentile alike are accountable to the law. While the church...those who have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb...are not under the law (Romans 6:14) are dead to the law (Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19) and are delivered from the law...

I have never been unconscious apart from entering into a dream state. So I don't know what it would be to be absolutely unconscious for the rest of eternity. It seems to me that there would be some kind of continuation of my consciousness after death...whether that experience is pleasant or...

Is it not the mercy of God that He allows a man to continue to live on in eternity (to have consciousness); though he live on in the torment of fire? If you were given the option of having your life completely snuffed out, or being able to live on albeit in a state of suffering, which would you...
