1. The book called “the book of remembrance” is written expressly for the righteous, and is the book which shall determine, in their cases, the decision of the judgment. This book is particularly referred to in the following passages:— “Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to...

THE existence of records, or books, in heaven and their use in the judgment, is plainly revealed. Thus Daniel says, “The judgment was set, and the books were opened.” Daniel 7:10. And John says: “And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened; and another book...

Revelation 13 11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound...

But I am human. How can a lifetime of sin cost an eternity of torture?

I dunno. Return To Mayberry was kind of a low budget, little-thought, made-for-TV movie. They might have forgotten all about Rev. Tucker. :)

We've been takin' from Reverend Tucker for a good many years now, and I ain't about to change. lol :p

And I'll leave you to your delusions as to my state of mind. Why would I be upset over remarks that serve no other purpose than to bitterly discourage fellowship? Everyone sees it for what it is. "Jesus" is just a word you toss around like a club for injuring people. If that is your "Jesus" you...

I have reconciled every accusation of God as being unjust except for this one. How could it take zillions of years to pay for the sin of one lifetime? It's impossible. God is love. Here is how one writer put it: Satan is seeking to overcome men today, as he overcame our first parents, by...

Hey, it's Barny. I'm not the original. :D

Absolutely agreed :) If it weren't for so much other evidence to the contrary, I would agree. :) If the lake of fire is the 2nd death, why don't those who are cast into it die? :)

I'm sure we all get the best information we have access to or the time to collect. It's nice of you to provide further, presumably more accurate details, though. :)

3. The sins of men are written in the books of God’s remembrance. The blotting out of the sins of the righteous does therefore involve the examination of these books for this very purpose. That the sins of men are thus written, is plainly revealed in the Scriptures. “For though thou wash thee...

2. When the sins of the righteous are blotted out they can be no more remembered. They are blotted out before Christ comes. There can be, therefore, no act of calling them to account for their sins after the advent of Christ. Thus we read:— “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your...

1. This period of investigative judgment is ushered in by a solemn proclamation to the inhabitants of the earth; and this investigative work embraces the closing years of human probation. This is a very important statement. But it is susceptible of being clearly proved. And I saw another angel...

3. The righteous are to be raised before the wicked have their resurrection. This shows that the examination of their cases takes place before they are raised, for the final discrimination is made in the very act of raising the just and leaving the unjust to the resurrection of damnation. “But...

2. The trump of God sounds as the Saviour descends from heaven. When that trump is heard, all the righteous are, in the twinkling of an eye, changed to immortality. There can be no examination after this to determine whether they shall be counted worthy of eternal life, for they will then have...

1. The righteous are to judge the wicked; yet the righteous are themselves to pass the test of the judgment. Whence it follows that the judgment must pass upon the righteous before they can sit in judgment upon the wicked. This is a very important proposition. That it is truthful we know from...

“I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.” Ecclesiastes 3:17 THE judgment of the great day is an event certain to take place. “He hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness...

We are saved d from the penalty, power and, eventually, the very presence of sin, I thought. :)

But, honestly, isn't excessive emphasis on ecclesiology just another -ism, TF?
