'If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but He that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so...

Hello @Enoch111, I do not agree with John Gill when he says that the 'worm' referred to in the verse quoted in your entry is the conscience. The fires referred to are continuously burning to destroy what is put into it. One form of punishment was to deny burial, and to cast the dead body of...

'For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell (Tartaroo), and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world...

'For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell (Tartaroo), and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world...

Hello @Enoch111, The Scriptural truth concerning the correct usage and interpretation of that middle English word, Hell, can only be fully appreciated by investigating the way that each Hebrew and Greek word so translated is used by the Holy Spirit, within it's context. For concordance...

I thought there had to be some Welsh blood in your veins, @brakelite. ;)

Thank you, @biloqewu, My security cover puts up a Message telling me that the link is not secure. I am not sufficiently knowledgeable about the computer to know how to override it. In Christ Jesus Chris

Hi there, Here in the UK, we are being advised to eat far less meat and fish, and to eat much more in the way of pulses, fresh vegetables and fruit: not from the perspective of healthy eating alone, but with the planet in mind, and the issue of global warming which is becoming such an issue...

'But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.' (Dan 1:8) Hello @biloqewu, My computer will not allow me to...

Hello @brakelite, That is one subject that Greek Philosophy and Tradition, along with man's use, misuse and abuse, has rendered a lie. However the 'fires' of Hell, which refer to end time judgement, and not to eternal conscious punishment for the sinner, certainly does engender strife and the...

'For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour...

Hello @"Waiting on Him", That is an interesting comment. Thinking about it, and wondering what you mean't to convey by it, is proving quite fruitful. For the 'fire' which such 'wood' engenders usually finds it's form in division and strife, hot words and condemnation, such as is found in the...

From Blindness to Freedom to Hope. Hello @Brakelight, I have just read through, and rejoiced in your testimony, and am so glad to have done so. It is a blessing to see how the Lord drew you to Himself, with cords of love, and saved you by His grace. Praise His Holy Name! I am glad to have...

'It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.' (John 6:63) Hello @brakelite, Thank you for your OP. God's Word is Truth. It is by the Truth of the gospel of God concerning His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ...

@Enoch111 @Anthony D'Arienzo Hello again, I acknowledge your responses. However, regarding the comments you have made, I must allow the Word of God to be the Arbiter, and God to be the judge. I see no reason to revise what I have written I thank you both, for the fruitful thought processes...

'But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made...

Hello @Anthony D'Arienzo, Reading Isaish 49, a wonderful chapter, which I thank you for bringing to my attention. I see that chapters 49:1 to 66:24 of Isaiah concern Messiah's mission and truimph. In verses 1-12, we see the Messiah in person, His call, qualifications and mission: in 49:13-26...

Hello @Anthony D'Arienzo, Thank you for your further responses, With respect, I understand what you are saying and why you are saying it: but have you considered who Peter's epistle was written to? It was written to the believing remnant of Israel, who were among the nations (the diaspora)...

'Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.' (John...

'And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and truth.' (John 1:14) Hello there, @justbyfaith & @Dave L, @101G,@farouk & Co., I choose not to argue about this subject, but rather to rejoice in...
