    Victory in Jesus

    Hello @HIM, You can cut those scriptures up all day. It doesn't matter to me. No one knows what Pauls thorn was... he doesn't say it. So you're thought and opinion on this matter, is moot... if Paul never said what his thorn was. It was never addressed.

    Victory in Jesus

    I find it amazing how much people tear apart the Bible as though they can be just so profoundly perfect in their flesh… hope that they give credit to the Lord Jesus, … cause their flesh will always fail, Jesus can help them from falling into their flesh however, it’s only by and through him and...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    Hello @Hobie, I didn’t ask for all of that. I just asked a simple question. It’s alright you didn’t want to answer in the first place. This is the problem with communication most of the time. Knowledge doesn’t equate to faith and it’s faith that pleases Yahavah/God. If you want to answer my...

    God's Hatred

    Hello @Christian Soldier, I don't believe what you are saying is true. Yahavah has never hated people... He has always disliked their attitudes concerning the ways they had went, for he is a jealous God. Yahavha has always loved people enough to give them life. Jesus said: John 3: 16 “For...

    Hello @Dan Clarkston, Thank you for your assumption. I already know scripture you have no real reason to quote it to me. Thank you sir.

    What is YOUR "thorn in the flesh"?

    I’m typically a hateful, spiteful, self serving person. For whatever reason Gods grace is still enough.

    Is this place overwhelming just the typical run of the mill conservative Christians who ignore science and biblical scholarship?

    Hello @Skovand, don’t care much for “Christian culture.” I’m also not very political and already know what’s on the 6 o’clock news. Most of the time nothing worth while, murders, pedophiles getting caught, child abuction? And a chance of some tornados and thunderstorms in the atmosphere later on...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    Hello @Hobie, While you can quote scripture. I know it already fairly well by having spent time to read it. I don’t think it’s good to murder, I don’t think it’s good to steal, I don’t think it’s good to cause discord with others. My body sometimes fails in that. I tend to hate others sometimes...

    God's Hatred

    Hello Original Poster, God only hates certain attitudes isn't? He never hates people, he did pour his wrath on his disobedient peoples. However that was a promise to come from himself.

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    Hello @Hobie, That was not an answer to the question that was asked. Thank you though, for your thoughts and input.

    Offenders in the kingdom

    Hello Grafted branch, It seems to me a great question! Im reminded of those who were of Christ by did not proclaim Jesus cause they were afraid to get discharged from the temple, as an example. There is probably one more instance in the bible somewhere about this as well concerning people who...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    Hello @Hobie, Wasn't Jesus was living and under the law at that current time. He is speaking of those who were obsessed with worshiping the Law, rather than listening to Yahavah, and rejected the Word of God, made flesh. Before Yeshuas completion and replacing that old Covenant with the new...

    14 IRRESOLVABLE CONTRADICTIONS WHICH RESULT FROM A LITERAL RICH MAN AND LAZARUS

    Hello @Phoneman777, He was around the Pharisees when he shared to "story," yes it was a parable.

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Hello @JunChosen That's not how that works. You can have a whole collective group of people beat me in the head with the bible. It wouldn't change my mind. Quoting scripture doesn't mean anything. It's reading the bible and seeking to understand the content and context that matters... Yahavah...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    Hello @Aunty Jane, Thank you for sharing your personal beliefs concerning, the subjects you brought up. People didn't come out of Hades until it was poured out and those within it were judged. I don't believe anyone goes to Hades today. I don't believe in eternal death (especially with Yeshua...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Hello @Lizbeth, While I enjoy and love the Bible… the Spirit of Christ is what I go by. I’m not told that I’m wrong by Yahavah (concerning the return of Jesus.) Just by people in their flesh.

    Is God a Dictator? Is His Creation a Democracy?

    Hello @quietthinker, I believe if God breathed into Adam. He does everyone else. Whether they activate that spiritually dead position or not, only Yahavah knows. This is what God the LORD says— the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs...

    Pslams 139 (Partial)

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Hello @keithr, That’s why I believe faithfully it did happen. I have no proof. Don’t need proof, to have faith. God either exist or he doesn’t. It’s up to you what you choose to believe concerning those Bible verses it cuts a lot of things out when we just quote here or there and not the whole...

    No puppies and kittens in heaven? - Why not?

    Hello @Skovand, I was just speaking of my experience and view. Like I stated I’m happy for people who wanna have animals. I choose not to have animals anymore, though they are a comfort, their comfort does exceed the comfort of Yahavah. That is just my opinion, by all means do what you need.
