Mockery for obedience to God is a given. But introspection is often difficult when we also practice the same.

[ The people of the world are like the mockers in Noah's day. But this is not our home, this world is perishing. All must get on board the ark who is Jesus. The flood waters will rise for each of us, rather we are onboard or not. Clinging to the world is foolishness, we will die along with...

I'm not sure how you were expecting the world to be changed. It wasn't going to turn into a utopia. Man isn't even going to build a Holy nation. All prior attempts have failed. The world tries to shape people with violence into conforming them to fit into certain roles. But God uses fallible...

All liars will take their place in the lake of fire. A liar implies a habitual disposition to lie. Someone who makes a living off of lying, yea I would consider them a liar. That means it's into the lake of fire they go.

I remember there being a specific scripture that pointed to a line of descendants from Abraham that have a generational animosity against Israel. Unfortunately I have forgotten where it is. Other than this mysterious forgotten verse there is a lasting animosity against Israel for being God's...

Mostly yes.

I'm surprised Grok was able to gather that hatred for the Jews is due to a demonic agenda.

The world publicly presented to you by those in power is not friendly to Christianity. I'm convinced the real warriors of the faith are unknown to most except to the powers of heaven and hell. They don't gain recognition in this life, and they are changing the world.

If it were about numbers Jesus' ministry would never have survived the first century. The quality of the message is proven true in the hearts of those who will come to believe. Likewise the testimony of the messengers is proven true when they are obedient to Jesus Christ in forsaking the world...

The gospel changes people. Be it one, ten, or a multitude it will accomplish what God set out to do with it. God's word does not return to him void.

Welcome to the forums!

Without that redemption God may very well have seen it better to end civilization before it could start, due to his foreknowledge of the fall of man but that is speculation. Paul also struggled with sin. He put living this life and running a race seriously and shedding hindrances Hebrews 12:1

Jesus succeeds in gathering His sheep. Others are at the mercy of their own masters.

Satan and the fallen angels will not be reunited with God. They will suffer the second death, which is total destruction. So everything that remains afterwards will be reunited. But that which no longer exists can't be reunited.

What about Satan and the other fallen angels? Are you saying they will be reunited too? Those that experience the second death will not be reunited.

A swine will always return to wallowing. If someone was unwilling to repent in this life why would they repent in the next? Just to gain entry, then it's back to sinning as usual.

Forever or at least until the second death, which results in the destruction of the soul. There is no word on how quick or slow that second death will be. So I don't preclude it from taking an eternity.

I am not from a denomination that practices confessions to a priest. There is a benefit, in confessing sins to one another, it creates accountability which leads to greater self discipline. Cain asked God, "Am I my brother's keeper?" The answer to that question implied by Cain's evil deed and...

There is more to Christian living than forgiveness of sins. There is also decipleship.

Proverbs 16:9 In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps. If someone's course leads to Hell, and they stay on it, that is where they will end up.
