    Was Jesus Eternally Tormented?

    I agree Jesus was/is sinless. But we are not justified by how He lived, we are justified by how He died. We are saved by His blood... Not His life. You're is Catholic doctrine and is why the Catholic view of salvation is so dangerous and heretical. Catholics believe they're are saved by a...

    Was Jesus Eternally Tormented?

    To all who maintain the spirit/soul (allowing for confusion here) is eternal and doesn't die. KJV Romans 2:7 7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: If we already had it, why seek it? KJV 1 Corinthians 15:53 53 For this...

    Was Jesus Eternally Tormented?

    We aren't saved by the sinlessness of Jesus... We are saved by His DEATH.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    What does the bible say is 'the wages of sin'. What did Jesus endure in order to take upon Himself the punishment for sin that was ours? Answer those questions honestly. Then explain how conscious eternal torment relates to death and Calvary.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    And despite reading Genesis 2:7 several times, you still don't get it.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    Your deliberate choice to remain ignorant and determined effort to compartmentalize true Christians as heretics and cultists simply because they believe scripture (which I quoted at length), the same scriptures you apparently reject, reveals a motive devoid of true Christian learning and desire...

    My Gods Saved Me - My Experience as a Pagan Growing Up In a "Christian" Culture

    @Maro I have been a Christian for 46 years, and are in reluctant but frank agreement with your view of the parlous state of the Christian church at present, and it is regrettable that your personal interaction with Christians as you grew up, and your familial circumstances contributed to your...

    The Changing Roll of the Church

    Okay, so this is a shade off topic, but 1844 is one of the most prophetically reliably time prophecies in scripture, and once studied, cannot be refuted. It's based on the following... KJV Daniel 8:14 14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be...

    Trying to quit smoking

    Satan has had 6000 years to learn the science and nature of botany, biology, and human behavior. He knows how to manipulate, propagate, blend and distort creation in order to deceive and destroy man. Not all things we see in the world today are from the Creator's direct action. Poisons, toxins...

    The Changing Roll of the Church

    I have several historical reasons why we could turn to any date over the last 2 to 300 years and declare, that was the beginning of sorrows. But the one that stands out to me more than any other is 1844. Google that year, and discover what took place in the spiritual realm. And the difference...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    You have built an entire doctrine, teaching that others are heretics if they disagree, all on an implication. Mmm Not denying that, in fact of I remember correctly, I made that very point in my first post on this thread... "And God breathed into him the breath of life, and man became a living...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    All very good quotes. Yet you believe Christians are already in heaven. Make up your mind.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    Which contradicts the rest of scripture. And the parable of the rich man and Lazarus can't be used as a theological treatise on the state of the dead, seeing it contradicts your own interpretation of souls under the altar. Unless you also think those souls can see people in hell, have fingers...

    Legalism in religion

    You agree with me yet are very defensive as to what it actually looks like in everyday life it seems. You say you have been teaching obedience as a fruit of the Spirit for years, yet the moment I posted a similar concept you suggested my motives for doing so were anti gospel. What does obedience...

    Legalism in religion

    Remember, the reason we are in this mess is disobedience. Surely you aren't suggesting that being saved allows for people to continue to live in that same disobedience? Is not salvation an intellectual, spiritual, and emotional assent to God's authority, replacing that which the old man was in...

    Legalism in religion

    Believe in what? What precisely is one to believe in, or for, that replaces obedience? Or could one have such a faith that God is able to work in His people His own righteousness, conforming them into the image of His Son, this empowering them to obey? See Romans 8:29 Do you believe that?

    Legalism in religion

    Mankind fell because of sin. The only solution provided by God to the sin problem, and man's predicament, is the blood of the Lamb and man's choice to allow God to turn his/her life around from one of disobedience and submission to the devil, to a life of obedience and submission to Christ...

    Legalism in religion

    There must be quite a number of people reading these posts. I can't help but wonder why there aren't any who are responding to your post with, " wow, I've never seen that before! Now so much makes sense and I now have definitive scriptural support against pagan superstitions and spiritualism...

    Legalism in religion

    There is in many the Babylonian Spirit that declares, "I can do this". (Think the tower of Babel). Self sufficiency and an independent mindset is the enemy to the Christian way of life, and constantly impedes our understanding and acceptance of biblical truth. KJV 2 Corinthians 10:5 5 "Casting...
