"As a Thief in the Night"

[Ronald Nolette]

Dear Mr. Nolette:

You said:
The vast majority of mankind is going to end up in the lake of fire- That is Gods Word and not mans.

The Lake of Fire is a symbol for the judgment of Christ. It is not eternal nor is it literal fire. From that judgment, Christ will save all mankind:

Isa 1:27 Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.

Jer 4:2 And thou shalt swear, The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness; and the nations shall bless themselves in him, and in him shall they glory.

Mankind, however, does not understand the judgment of Christ:

Prov 28:5 Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.

Mankind believes that judgment has no loving purpose to it and that it is not redeeming. However, Christ's judgment is not like mankind's judgment and neither will He pervert it:

Job 34:12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.

When Christ's judgments are manifested in the world, all mankind will come and worship Him:

Rev 15:4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

This is a related verse:

Phi 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Christ's judgment is for removing mankind's carnality. In other words, it purifies us. After our carnality is destroyed by fire, it will be replaced by the Spirit which will give us a new nature. This is called "conversion". After all mankind is converted, they will all confess Jesus as Lord and will freely bow down and worship Him, to the glory of the Father.

Finally, I do not cut myself off from other believers who walk in the light of truth. However, in this world, they are very "few" in number. Those "few" cannot fellowship with believers who walk in darkness. There is a great gulf fixed in between the two. Those in darkness dwell on the earth and those in light dwell in heaven.

Luke 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

Joe

We are through.

Titus 3:10-11

King James Version

​

10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

Your special revelation are defintely spiritual, but not from god!

You are haughty, proud, judgmental and steeped in heresy.

Have the last word, we are finished here.

Again assuming your interpretation as correct, that would be the logical conclusion.

Well it is not my interpretation.

but it does the least harm to teh Scriptures. It follows the natural flow of how revelation was inspired anmd requires no gerrymandering nor allegorizing to understand. God wrote His Word for us to read, understand and heed without special people who know how to "interpret" the words written.
