Dealing with people on the internet is a whole different beast than face to face discussions at stores. On the internet, there are twice as many people, which means double the scum looking for people to harass.

I think it is a distinct possibility that he is secretly in love with Mary. That's why he can't come to grips with the fact that the love of his life isn't anything special.

I know full well what you are saying. It doesn't apply to the throne judgement, so its irrelevant, because there will be plenty of souls to the tune of billions who never had a chance to "choose life" in God. That's why it says nothing about the judgement being about their beliefs. You will...

As long as they confess that Jesus Christ is the son of God, the word made flesh who died for their sins, who created heaven and earth, then the differences beyond that shouldn't really matter much. The only ones on a slippery slope to hell are the wicked.

Exactly, the scripture doesn't show me to be right or wrong. Unbelievers have had a field day with verses like this. For the sake of argument in defense of God himself, this scripture can just as easily bolster my argument. On the surface, God making man to be subject unto vanity would...

I don't see what this has to do with a man's "choice" to get tossed in the fire, looks like you just adding onto the scripture that was never there. Actually it is 100% the choice of God who goes and who doesn't, he is the one who will judge each soul according to their WORKS, not according to...

I wanted you to fall because I love you...........Sounds more like something you would hear out of the mouth of an abusive spouse than out of a God you all often claim to love his creation 'unconditionally'. I slap you around because I love you is what this is akin to. Yes, love is the reason...

Finished my meal, so now its back to kicking Satan's teeth down his throat.

The answer to your question stems from the understanding of what it means to be saved. Its simple, without Jesus, you are doomed to face the throne judgement, or the condemnation, at which point you will be standing before God next to the common atheist or pagan being judged for your works, in...

If you are referring to the fall of Satan, then of course, yes. I use his fall as a major part of my argument.

I know that God being the author of logic wouldn't want me giving logically inconsistent explanations for the faith to unbelievers, especially for those asking certain questions because some of them are looking for a reason NOT to believe, and the answers given for these questions tend to be...

Its only more reason for me to flush it down the toilet where it belongs, because there is not a shred about the doctrine that is true.

With Luke 16, the word "hell" used there is not even the same "hell" used to refer to the lake of fire in other verses, which is THE hell. The "hell" that Jesus is referring to in Luke 16 is Sheol, the grave. The rich man felt tormented in the grave because he saw that the time of his judgement...

:) Well, they all go to hell, or Sheol, or the grave, like Jesus did. And then there is the other hell meant specifically for angels, also known as tartaros, which I strongly believe is the same place referred to in Revelation as the bottomless pit. And then there is the last hell also known...

Agree'd, and some people will blame the discord among believers on Satan just being on his job. While that may be true to an extent, much of the infighting can still be blamed on our own incompetence in handling God's word, and this is made even worse by the fact that they claim to be "led by...

Yep, and not even half of that "good news" they preach has any truth to it at all. Hey, lets just go around telling every non-believer how much of an inept despot God really is...yep that's been working out pretty well hasn't it? We have people here who believe in the hell fire doctrine, since...

Excellent point, but good luck with this inconvenient truth ever getting through the thick skull's of BOL and other catholic's here.

Like the hell fire preachers?

Well, we've got lots of people here and elsewhere claiming to have confirmation from above concerning the truth. I have grown very weary of such people, because they are the ones often proposing the biggest load of baloney one could possibly imagine. Some people will jokingly say that God put...
