Why would it be an issue if like you say---->Jesus is ALSO pointing to what Judah did in that valley of Hinnom per Jeremiah 7 and Jeremiah 19, sacrificing their children in the fire to Molech.??<----I am just asking for the scripture that would indicate that. The only discussions I see about...

Germans? Gehenna I know that the Jehovah's Witnesses latch onto this word and think they have caught a big fish, but it is a Red Herring. It is one of many burning trash dumps maintained by the Romans. The Romans understood you had to do something with trash and or bodies.....if not, bad things...

You do understand that Jerusalem and surrounding area was the same place in the Old and Testament. But since this trash dump burnt all the time, Christ used it for a analogy for eternal fiery torment. Christ was not referencing Pagan uses for the area....it was in relation to the conversations...

There is very little of this that makes any sense..... Gathering from your gibberish ....I will acknowledge that it was a trash dump and Christ used it as one, that is one of the analogies of an eternal fiery punishment.

Good book just not the best for indepth study. A short essay on Hell. Hell and Hades….are not mentioned in the Old Testament for a very good reason. If you have a Bible with these words in the Old Testament….buy another Bible The word Hell does not appear in the Old or New Testament, because...

Oh you so funny! I am well knowledgeable of the biblical languages and the Strong's is great book for amateurs. Not for anything serious.

One way or another, how many times do you think fire is associated with eternal punishment in the New Testament? Right around 30 times. An eternal fire. And sometimes Christ referred to eternal punishment as darkness and gnashing of teeth. Now Christ is going to be the one that understand the...

Oh that is alright. No harm no foal. They will believe in hell when they are screaming in it.

It is all good stuff.

Well it is all a good study. A lot went on between the testaments. We know more now than just a few decades ago. There is a lot of Jewish history that is coming to light and the depository of old texts at Qumran may predate the Essenes several centuries. They may have found some of these caves...

Now this is a good discussion....not really biblical so we are talking outside that boundary. So what we discuss here in not against the bible....it is extrabiblical. My first question would be to @TEXBOW...where did you get this information that... "They prophesied that Jesus would die on the...

If you decide to take biblical study seriously you need to start with the basics. The foundation of your understanding should be true and unshakeable. If you notice Christ and the Apostles were not entertaining debates. The foundation is the basics...it is the basics that are going to get you to...

Again I am going to say that ..... But mostly the scriptures are clear. And those scriptures that are borderline....then it takes a little digging. But most of the time you can find the truth. You want an old expression....muddy the water. This what your post is about here....I have already...

So do you think that Christ was joking about the fire?

Gnashing of teeth The parable of rich man and Lazarus ..... Oblivion would be a welcome alternative to what is described....not even much of a punishment, you would not know about it. Really nothing to fear....why worry about it. It is one of those things that you wonder why hell and heaven...

What else did Christ and Apostles believe it was? It is usually about fire and the punishment is eternal. Now is it actually fire or are they giving an image of the worst thing they can describe? If it was something worse than fire, how could they describe it. There is nothing in there about a...

He was the symbolic and divine sacrificial lamb and He was slain around 3:00 pm on the 7th of April, (Friday) around the time that the actual sacrificial lambs were being slain. The Passover dinner for Him was held on the evening of the 6th of April...Thursday and they had a sacrificial lamb...

And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life. Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest...

Well yes.....Passover occurs on the 15th of Nisan....always and always on a full moon it starts the evening before. The 14th of Nisan was on a Friday. The Last Supper on a Thursday.

If any of this Jehovah's Witness dribble about hell, has anyone confused, here is nearly 100 New Testament scriptures about eternal punishment. Now most of it is about fire of some sort....and it probably is, but if they knew about something worse than being roasted for eternity, they may have...
