    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    It certainly does demonstrate how it gets the context so wrong when that is the basis of the "acceptable" translations in your case.

    saying thank you

    Ah Fluffy, I am still thanking God that He is still gathering/drawing you to Himself. It is a marvel to see God at work in your Life and the changes that he has brought to gladden your heart and soul. Shalom

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    That is the way you want to understand God's Gospel. Your understanding does not line up with God's understanding of His purposes.

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    That is the way you want to understand the parable. I do not believe that your understanding is in line with Jesus' words.

    What Americans discover when they leave and goto a much better country

    It was just a part of life for someone who lived in the country. You saw life and death unfold before your eyes as you walked around your neighbourhood on the edge of a city. You had to dig holes for your pets when they died, in the chook yard, and cover the hole with some sheet roofing to...

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    For a parent, you can first ask God to include your daughter or son to be included among those whom He is drawing to Himself. Then the next thing you can do is to continually thank God that He has hear your request/prayer and rejoice that He is working on your request to draw your child to...

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    In the Parable of Lazarous and the Rich man, the rich man was told that he could not go back to warn his family of the consequences of their life choices. Their faith was decided by their choice to either worship God or not to worship God. After their physical death, their decision with...

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    It seems that you are ignoring the fact that everybody goes through the fire to be refined to remove the dross in our lives so that what remains is pure righteousness unto the Lord. For those who are not in Christ at that time, all will be dross and their refining will not reveal any...

    The real Fascists are the LEFT,

    Yes and if it was not for the Aussies joining you and fighting sensibly more of your fellow countrymen would have died.

    What Americans discover when they leave and goto a much better country

    Gun are not needed like in America because there are less fears to deal with and guns are not the solution for those fears. The only time I need a gun during my lifetime was to put down my dog after it had taken a bait from a "friendly" neighbour who had a great dislike for dogs and cats. I...

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    Then what is the point of the Gospel if there are no consequences for turning away from God?

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    But it is you who has turned away from the Gospel because of your UR theology which is unbiblical. As such we are not, at this present time, Brothers in Christ although we may remain "friendly" towards each other.

    Jesus' sacrifice for you.

    For those who are interested in read the attachment, I have, to the best of my abilities, arranged the story of Jesus chronologically from His passing through Jerico, on his way up to Jerusalem for His crucifixion, up and until the time of His ascension. Enjoy Shalom

    Augustine butchered the translation of early scripture, including the word "eonian"

    This is the second thread where Patrick1966 has presented the same argument. This is my rebuttal to his claim in another thread started by Patrick: - Jesus returns, Jesus judges, the good inherit the earth, and the bad are sent to Hell "age-during" <Jesus returns, Jesus judges, the good...

    Jesus returns, Jesus judges, the good inherit the earth, and the bad are sent to Hell "age-during"

    My understanding is that your UR understanding is based on false pretexts. 1 Tim 4:10 is true in that Jesus is the saviour for all people, but the verse then qualifies that, only those, who are believers, will be saved. Here is the interlinear version of this verse: - Here is what two...

    Jesus returns, Jesus judges, the good inherit the earth, and the bad are sent to Hell "age-during"

    Sadly, that is just your opinion that the YLT is correct in its translation. The Greek does say something completely different. Where G:0166 above has the following meaning: -

    351 Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled In Jesus Christ

    Which of these prophecies are associated with His First Advent and how many of these prophecies are associated with His second Advent. How many prophecies are there where we do not know the time period of their fulfilment?

    How many ages are there?

    Hello, And "age" is a period of time of the order of 1,000 years in which the purposes of God occurred. There were six time period of creation and in Gen 2:5 these time periods are described as "generations" and each time period was of the order of a Day of the Lord which is equivalent to an...
