    ...

    Revelation says they are done away with. Universalism says suggesting they are saved. It makes it quite a conflict due to Gods promise… And the outside and inside of Gods kingdom in heaven. What do you trust? The wisdom of the world? Who do you trust? Man? Or God?

    Changing verses to conform to forever punishment theology

    Hello @Patrick1966, What version is the second one? Also even though you believe all will be saved one day. How would you explain to a stranger who stopped and asked you, “What happens to faithless people when they die?” What would you say to them? Just curious, all the best, in Christ Matthew

    People say you can not lose faith, God can't lose you, is that true?

    From what is understood, Yes it wont matter “what one believes” It will be did you trust God in faith, and did you love. But what a person believes does matter to an extent and they seek out God for understand other wise the bible is a wasted material distributed pointlessly...

    How do you reconcile "the gates of Hell will NOT prevail" with Satan supposedly taking most of mankind to Hell with him?

    Nancy, There was… It was the one Jesus promised to come get. They dont get a lot of credit… They did it out of Love for God and love for others hoping in the ushered in kingdom of God for all people to come into, getting rid of the old ways of the past with material religion. An age we dont...

    How do you reconcile "the gates of Hell will NOT prevail" with Satan supposedly taking most of mankind to Hell with him?

    I dont believe that this forum is the church that hell wont prevail against. Sorry. You can have friends and everything on here but… This aint no pure and blameless, place. Todays standards are much different than the very first bride of Christ, who was the church that hell did not pervail...

    People say you can not lose faith, God can't lose you, is that true?

    Just trying to dialogue and see what people think or believe or the way they see things has been a good thing in my opinion. Over 1,000 views in 4 days on this thread now perhaps it's time to move forward and let it die maybe?

    LAMB, You do remind of a scripture that talks about God is not the author of confusion, but of peace.

    How do you reconcile "the gates of Hell will NOT prevail" with Satan supposedly taking most of mankind to Hell with him?

    Hello Nancy, Do you think that school teachings would be better, than going to a church? To be presented with the biblical narrative, but also have someone say - hey you know I could be wrong but you should consult with God through prayer, but also be encouraged to seek yourself by going and...

    INDIVIDUALS VS THE MAJORITY

    @Butterfly, This wouldn't have been an issue then at that time... it was before the LAW was instated. That is just my thoughts. It's either one or the other, my mom asked the question to many people.

    INDIVIDUALS VS THE MAJORITY

    Hello Butterfly My mother always had this question, A person told her "God made adam and eve first, but didnt say that was the only ones he had made". My mother was satisfied with the answer above. Thinking about it They were the first ones made that had direct connection with God.

    How do you reconcile "the gates of Hell will NOT prevail" with Satan supposedly taking most of mankind to Hell with him? Hello @Patrick1966, It would seem that God set up a predestined people whom did not doubt, and did not waver, that were pure and blameless, above and beyond measure, which...

    Why do you believe Satan is still around today? (Please read Op)

    @GodisSpirit, Though I dont know. Do you think its possible the children may have forgot and dared one of them? That was just an assumption from someone that I have known (teacher from the school). He said he didnt know but posed the question. God did give them free will, it just seemed...

    Why do you believe Satan is still around today? (Please read Op)

    No one has asked me this question, “ Matthew if Satan is done away with today what does that mean?” From my perspective, I believe it is just like in the beginning in the garden of Eden. People choose to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, or they eat from the tree of life...
