The soul is not immortal. Why do you think an eternal fire means an eternal soul? Where do you get that? If the soul is already immortal then no one needs to be saved. How can we pass from death to life if we never die? Think about his and study some more.

The human soul is a desperate thing. Many many modern believers are so in love with the nice sounding verses that they believe that God loves their ego as much as they do. But God loves a different part of us. The weak inner man. NOT the ego driven outer carnal man. So as people claim grace...

You are just being religious and following your indoctrination here. We know that the fire is eternal and that torment is reserved for the devil and the beast. Hello? :) But you are ignoring all the other verses that show that the lake of fire destroys the wicked. So open your mind up and...

He who seeks to save his life will lose it. You need to lose your life to find it. There are many false ministers who will lie through their teeth to fill in the pews. And these provide a false sense of assurance. They are assurance salesmen. Grace gives us the potential to walk as Jesus...

Without holiness none shall see the Lord. And I could cite you..and I have...over and over ...all the warnings...but you ignore these. Many are like you...who read what they want to read and believe what they want based on an emotional human logic that is set on self-preservation. A humble man...

Are you proposing an unlimited grace? Where do you get that from the bible? We can fall from grace and fail grace according to the bible. We can bury our talent and offend God and the spirit of grace. So you are the one who needs to back up a preposterous claim. Salvation is ALWAYS...

Yes. There are 2 ways to succeed and 2 ways to fail. One is to fail in the world and the other is to fail God. There are 2 resurrections with 2 judgments. They who are believers are in the household of God. But judgment begins at the house of God. So then Christians will be judged along with...

There is an eternal conscious punishment (albeit not physical torment) in the bible. Outer darkness...being a castaway...banished from the face of God. And this is an eternal destiny. Not like heaven and hell...which are places but not destinies. So there is so much confusion in modern...

Our God is a consuming fire. He brings purity and destroys what is offensive to holiness and spiritual life by consuming what is nonredeemable with fire. As such God is improving the world...albeit at the expense of they who will not repent or are too offensive or hostile to the truth. So when...

Actually it is they who are cast into outer darkness that are barred from entering the city. Even in the next age (eternal) the naked and shamed are not permitted access to God or His people. There are walls and gates to the holy city. They who are cast into the lake of fire perish there. That...

Rev. 20:14 "Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death." If death and hell are cast are cast into the lake of fire do these suffer torment forever? Or does anything temporal (including us) perish in the fire? When has death ever meant eternal torment. It is...

The second death (annihilation) is one possibility as an outcome or destiny of men. We are mortals...not immortals.

Do you believe that every knee will bow? Philippians 2:10-11 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Now...

Grace is only sovereign in that it is the power of God over sin. So then the ONLY sovereignty of grace is that of a victory over sin. In worldly politics there are 2 main strategies for growth and sustainability. One is stimulus and the other is austerity. Both are useful if used wisely and at...

Very few are cut out to be saints. Jesus said that many will try but few will be able to pass through that door and walk that narrow path. Going into the reasons for that are both simple and complex...and too in depth for this thread.

Or..He CAN be if He wishes. To make His presence to be something we control is like a form of conjuring. Way too religious. But God is free to come and go as He pleases. Our job is to attract God by our faith and our acts.

The question we should be asking ourselves is this....what are we doing with what God gave us? All the ones who perished in the wilderness were saved from Egypt. But God was not pleased with many of them. Likewise He is not pleased with many of us.

Revelation 22:11 “He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.”

And the principalities. God is fair and righteous. If we are going to judge angels then they need to see that we are who we are supposed to be. So then being a Christian is like being in an officer school. If a person is not up to that...there is still being saved through humility and the fear...

The bible describes 4 possibilities...for the actual studiers of the bible to discover...4 eternal destinies. There are 2 resurrections...each with a good and bad outcome. There is first the resurrection and judgment the house of God...and then of the nations. When a person is saved in the...
