Well then he is in luck! Hebrews 2:14 (KJV): (14) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; Satan will then not have the power of...

I agree with you. Jesus is going to perfect God's Kingdom, perfecting everyone and destroying everyone who will not remain faithful to God and His righteous laws, including destroying Satan and his angelic/demonic followers (Revelation 20:7-10). Only those who are perfect and in harmony with...

That is totally irrelevant to the discussion, so I'm not going to waste my time trying to answer that question. I never once disagreed with "forever and ever", so I don't know why you would come up with that comment. I was commenting on the word "tormented". If you can't understand that then...

Why can't you stop implying that I am a JW. I AM NOT A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS. When you throw something into a fire it is usually destroyed (that's why things are usually thrown into fire - to destroy them). You criticise my post for interpreting the text of Revelation 20 as symbolic, but all true...

That's not what it says in Revelation 20: (13) The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. (14) Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire...

The truth is the truth, no matter who does and doesn't believes it. As Christians we should love the truth, and seek to know the truth of God's word. Jesus prayed, John 17:17 (WEB): (17) Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth. and Jesus said, John 4:24 (WEB): (24) God is spirit...

Perhaps you don't know that there are Christian denominations, apart from Jehovah's Witnesses (who are Christians), that don't believe in the Trinity or that hell is a place of eternal torture for humans. If you study "hell fire" in the Bible you will discover that "hell fire" or "fire of hell"...

What evidence do you have to support that? This is just more slander. Psalms 15:1-3 (WEB): (1) A Psalm by David. Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill? (2) He who walks blamelessly does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart; (3) He who doesn’t...

Are you calling me a liar? How many more times do I need to state that I am not a JW and that I have never been one?

In post #510 I explained the meaning of the verses and pointed out that they did not support your claims. That is not twisting Scripture!

Neither are you. So what? I'm not a JW, but I do have a copy of the NWT (a friend gave it to me - he had bought it in a secondhand shop). Have you read it? I'm sure Aunty Jane knows that NWT stands for 'New World Translation (of the Holy Scriptures)'. Again, so what's your point?

You claimed (in post #621) that I had "twisted about every verse of scripture in this thread". By picking 4 verses that I have not "twisted about" I have proved you wrong. I am not crafty and deceptive, just honest, truthful and precise. My posts are there for you and everyone to read. Your...

The full sentence is, 1 Timothy 4:1-3 (WEB): (1) But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons, (2) through the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot...

I can't explain what you think about my posts! I can only reiterate that I am not a JW, I have never been a JW, and I have never been to a JW church (Kingdom Hall) or any of their meetings anywhere. I have spoken to JW's that have come calling at my home, as many people have also experienced.

More deliberate provoking slander! :rolleyes: Just picking a few verses I've mentioned in this thread: From post #475: The fallen angels are not eternally punished by being kept in darkness in Tartarus. They have been imprisoned there to await their judgement. 2 Peter 2:4 (WEB): (4) For if God...

I wasn't contradicting you, I was simply asking you to provide Biblical evidence to support your claim that "the concept of eternal punishment" is mentioned more times in the Bible than heaven is. I called your bluff, so it's up to you to prove it. So far you haven't. So let me do some work...

By whom? I've come to believe what I believe after learning from multiple sources over time, and always checking what the Bible says. Some things I used to believe I have since learned were not correct. I don't just believe what people tell me, I check for myself whether or not what they are...

Part of the duty of being a Christian is to defend the truth as presented in the Bible, and to defend the good character of God. In a Christian Bible discussion forum it is to be expected that there will be some disagreement on interpretation of the Bible, because we are not all at the same...

I meant where is the evidence that the concept of eternal punishment is mentioned more times than heaven, or the resurrection and eternal life. Just stating that hell is mentioned more times than heaven, without supplying evidence to back that up, is not convincing. I supplied evidence that...

Where's the evidence for that? Just stating it doesn't mean that it is the truth. Do the Scriptures say more about hell than about resurrection and eternal life?
