    Where do people go when they die?

    The problem you are having with this Matthew is you don't understand Jewish idiom. This story of Jesus was told to make a point, so don't miss the point. It wasn't told to give us a theology on the state of the dead.

    Where do people go when they die?

    God doesn't give souls to people Matthew....we are souls. Adam became a living soul....when? when God breathed into his nostrils of formed dust the breath of life or spirit. Genesis 2:7

    Where do people go when they die?

    Matthew, the spirit of life that God gives is not a conscious entity in itself.....it is the 'power' that animates the dust, eg, the electricity that makes the light bulb glow when it is switched on does not go anywhere when it is switched off....and the light itself just ceases to be. The term...

    Where do people go when they die?

    For one it's pride in the justification of their point of view and for two, its the insistence of superimposing their need for revenge onto God....a revenge that mirrors the characteristics of Satan himself.

    Where do people go when they die?

    There is a vested interest even though it be macabre for those who insist on God burning certain people for eternity. Because of this I find it pointless to debate with them. Their vision of God and their theology stays primitive and reflects more of their own characters than God's. They have...

    The Ignore Option

    I think that goes without saying.....of course some responded....some of all hues and stripes but the general movement of the religious Hebrew system rejected him.....it still does.

    The Ignore Option

    To say that Jesus is of the devil is to stifle the conviction by the Sprit that says he is God's man. Those guys knew who Jesus was...they'd been tracking him since Mary was pregnant .....there was the witness of the Magi and the Shepherds ....Simeon and Anna at the temple and the slaughter of...

    The Ignore Option

    Yup, you know about it on this forum and how it works. Have you considered that the sin against the Holy Spirit is non other than putting him on ignore......and what happens then? well, no matter how much he tries to communicate he cannot be heard but to flatter oneself that one is all ears, the...

    The GREAT TRIBULATION Has Begun!

    I doubt it This statement was made years after Judas was chosen. Jesus didn't need opposition....he even called him 'friend' at the moment of betrayal are you are saying Jesus set up his own demise? I've said it before....several times....The whip was to move languishing livestock the crack...

    Where do people go when they die?

    Where do people go when they die? They don't go anywhere Matthew. They wait or as the scripture calls it 'sleep' till the resurrection....both good and bad.

    The GREAT TRIBULATION Has Begun!

    What are you doing Stumpmaster? .... are you attempting to use the word 'fear' in the sense that one cannot live in confidence of God's love for us? It is confidence that I have long coveted and now bask in....will you attempt to nullify it by using scripture?

    Australias lockdown suicides and lockdown blackmail

    How does one depopulate the planet while at the same time make big noises about the welfare of its inhabitants? How does one pedal poison all the while proclaiming liberation......on every level?

    Why do so many Americans take and support recreational drugs these days?

    The need to have altered realities is testimony to a lost, needy and desperate generation. Healthy vitality and clarity are traded for short term 'euphoria' if one could even call it that.....but we know how the story of prolonged use ends up.....physical, mental and emotional health impaired if...

    Is the Word of God only found in scripture?

    How is it that oppression needs to cloth itself in the garb of sanctity if not to deceive? History, for all familiar with it tells us who the culprits are. Arrogance boasts 'I sit as Queen and will never be a widow ' and even the masses proclaim 'who is like unto the beast, who can make war...
