    The judgement of hell came in the first century

    Stop twisting Scripture to fit your false gospel. Revelation doesn’t erase hell; it reveals its reality. You keep preaching that “hell is done away with,” but that’s a lie straight from the pit you’re trying to deny. Revelation 20 never says hell ends, it describes what happens to the damned...

    The judgement of hell came in the first century

    That’s not what the biblical context of the passage means. “Brimstone” (Greek: theion) in the Bible never refers to ceremonial washing or some sort of symbolic cleansing based on human tradition. Brimstone is literally sulfur; the ancients knew it burned. The same Greek word is used in ~Luke...

    The judgement of hell came in the first century

    What you’re saying is not only wrong, it flies in the face of the Word of God. Revelation 21 and 22 don’t destroy hell; they affirm it. The same passage that mentions the new heaven and the new earth also says, “the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers...

    The judgement of hell came in the first century

    The problem with your argument is that you are equating a local, temporal judgment on a particular generation with the final judgment of hell. But that is not how Scripture speaks. In ~Matthew 23, Jesus berated the scribes and Pharisees for their hypocrisy and unbelief and declared that they...

    What a Modern Christian Needs to Understand to Tackle Today's Challenges

    You speak many words, but none of them lead men to Christ. What you’ve written is a cloud without rain, heavy with knowledge, but dry of truth. You dress the wisdom of this world in religious clothing, yet it cannot save a single soul. The gospel is not a philosophy to master but a Person to...

    The Wolves Are Already Among Us

    You are correct that false teachers have been present since the beginning, and the apostles spoke about them in their own time. The difference now is the level of visibility and pervasiveness. The internet didn't create apostasy; it simply unveiled its extent. Scripture mentions, "Evil men and...

    Some people aren’t seeking truth; they’re draining it. Don’t let energy takers steal your time or your peace. Stay focused on God’s Word and keep your discernment sharp. Know the truth of the Bible, not man's opinion.

    The Wolves Are Already Among Us

    That is the exact opposite of what apostasia means. Paul didn’t use that word for the rapture. He used it for a falling away from the faith. The context of ~ 2 Thessalonians 2:3 has to do with rebellion and deception, not rescue. It said it would come before the man of sin is revealed, not after...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    That is what we have already discussed several times. The Bible clearly reveals the answer to this. The apostles did not render "Jehovah" in the Greek text, they used Kyrios and applied Joel 2:32 directly to Jesus Christ. That is the revelation of the Holy Spirit, not an alteration by man. You...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    The problem with what you’re saying is that you’re treating translations as if they altered God’s identity, when in reality the New Testament itself, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, reveals how Joel 2:32 is fulfilled. Peter quotes that verse in ~ Acts 2:21, and he didn’t say “Yahweh,”...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    Once again, your argumentation conflates truth and supposition. The Scriptures do not limit God’s wrath to one temporal event in history, such as the fall of Jerusalem. Wrath against sin is present reality and the final judgment is the future fulfillment of God’s wrath. “The wrath of God is...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    Peter didn’t quote Joel to teach that salvation was only for that generation. He quoted it to announce that the salvation of God through Christ had come. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” ~Acts 2:21 is not time-bound. Paul quotes the very same verse in ~Romans 10:13...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    That’s not what Scripture teaches. You’re twisting the text to fit a manmade theory. The New Testament quotes Joel 2:32 correctly when it says, “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” ~ Acts 2:21, and ~Romans 10:13. The Greek word used there is Kyrios, which the apostles applied...

    God loves you, but He is also holy. His love does not cancel His justice; His justice was satisfied at the cross. Only those who believe and turn to Christ can say with confidence, “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1).

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    What you said about seeking the Father first (Matthew 6: 33) is true, but Scripture also teaches we cannot come to the Father apart from knowing the Son as God. Jesus said plainly, “No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). That’s not access through a messenger, but through the...

    Make Sure You’re Following the Real Jesus

    If you are teaching that the Trinity is not true then you are an example of what the OP is about. When a person rejects the triune nature of God, they are rejecting the very nature of how God reveals Himself in His Word. The Trinity is not a contradiction, it’s divine truth. The Father is God...

    Don’t Get Comfortable in the Devil’s World

    You’re not “sharing Scripture,” you’re mutilating it to preach a gospel without wrath. You quote verses on peace but avoid the ones on wrath. God’s wrath didn’t go away, in fact, Romans 1: 18 says it is being revealed in the present tense against all ungodliness. You are declaring peace where...

    Don’t Get Comfortable in the Devil’s World

    MatthewG, you are not preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, you are preaching the gospel of MatthewG. Once again you have revised Scripture to suit what you want it to say, not what God really said. We don't have the liberty to redefine truth according to the Bible. Paul said in Galatians 1...

    Not a future seeing Jesus coming guy

    You don’t have to believe anything I say, but you must believe what the bible says. That’s your decision, to deny what is said from Scripture does not make it not to be true. You can claim to believe in the resurrected Lord Yeshua, but the question is, do you believe what He actually said? “Why...
