Yes I understand what you are saying. It is like being in the world but not of it. The solution is community in the Spirit. This is where the people are together in the light but they are still in the world. The Christian life only makes sense in the plural form....which is the body of Christ.

A true Christian is merciful ...even to other Christians who are not being merciful. Otherwise we are only respecting those who respect us. It is God who judges...not self appointed men who seek to judge. Judge not lest you be judged.

He is risen indeed! Maranatha!

There were 5 obedient servants and 5 disobedient servants. It is akin to having 10 people buy guitars but only 5 learn to actually play. The lamp represents a form of godliness...but it is the oil that makes it work...that powers the lamp. So the ones with no oil represents those who do not rely...

But even here there is a distinction. The righteous nations may bring their glory into the city. Not so the shamed ones. Notice... Rev 21:24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. Rev 21:25...

Only God knows... Here is another reference to the first resurrection.. Dan 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. The second resurrection has all the remaining ones (the nations) being...

The first...Judgment starts in the house of God. The first judgment is about honour and dishonour, the second resurrection is about life and death.

Well you are wrong. Salvation means that we are not judged along with the world and we don't die. Paul specifically...as does Jesus...warns about being careful how we build on the initial salvation. In a great house are vessels of honour AND vessels of dishonour. Some build on the rock and some...

That's what I'm trying to tell you. It is the QUALITY of the salvation that changes Paul didn't say he was worried that his works only would be rejected...he specifically says...I MYSELF SHOULD BE A CASTAWAY. You probably didn't notice that. <_<

G96 ἀδόκιμος adokimos ad-ok'-ee-mos From G1 (as a negative particle) and G1384; unapproved, that is, rejected; by implication worthless (literally or morally): - castaway, rejected, reprobate. What does one do with salt that has lost it's saltiness. It is worthless. So is your explanation...

Rev_11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. Where was the Lord crucified?

Do you include the apostle Paul in your list of the wicked. He feared being cast out. Are you greater than Paul. Tell us! 1Co 9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Who said anything about the bride? I am reading the bible as it is written. You only see what you want...while flagrantly ignoring the actual text. The Laodicean church refuses to repent therefore they are not the bride. They are rejected as vessels of dishonour and will be cast into outer...

So Jesus spits out the Laodicean Christians into glory? Paul was worried about being cut off and thrown into the lake of fire? Or of being not chosen for the Bride. The words of Jesus hold little or no weight with you.

They have eternal life don't they? The are reaping what they have sown. That is a biblical concept you see.

She be right! ;)

Aren't the theologians the ones who decide if a woman is a witch or not. As in ..."she is a witch".

The wicked are annihilated in the lake of fire, but the filthy (those who don't keep their garments) walk in shame, nakedness and darkness forever.

Are people being tormented when they live in a fantasy world today? No one is keeping them from returning to God in order to live in Him. But they will continue to live in their true condition for eternity unless they repent from dead works. You are putting a spin in the word that is not there...

You deny the truth with your carnal reasoning as you are wont to do. Wandering in outer darkness forever is not he same fate as being killed in the second death in the lake of fire. But through your indoctrination you cannot see this. Jesus said many who say Lord Lord...that includes MANY...
