The rich man and the beggar at his gate?

[Renniks]

Luke 16:25 KJV
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

Why does father Abraham call Him Son, also notice the upper case S in Luke's hand?

Apparently you think there was this Rich man, who lived in a house, while at the same time was a begger outside his own gate. (he had two bodies) Then the begger part of him died and went to paradise, and later the rich man died and went to hades and then he looked across and saw his other self, etc. (Talk about your split personalitys!) It's just ridiculous. Why do people feel the need to rip apart scripture and make it mean something it can't possibly mean.

 

[Renniks]

And why would Abraham call him Son

Because the rich man was Jewish.

Why does father Abraham say it's impossible to cross the fixed gulf, is there something that's impossible for God?

 

[Waiting on him]

Because the rich man was Jewish.

On this we agree.

 

[Renniks]

Why does father Abraham say it's impossible to cross the fixed gulf, is there something that's impossible for God?

Because God doesn't let people in hell into heaven.

John 11:45,48,54 KJV
Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. [48] If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. [54] Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.

Now here scripture says many believed on Jesus because of Lazarus being sent back, but Abraham said they wouldn't believe even I'd one returns from the dead?

Because God doesn't let people in hell into heaven.

Where is hell?

 

[Waiting on him]

Because God doesn't let people in hell into heaven.

Jonah 2:2 KJV
And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.

How do you reconcile this?

Psalm 16:9-11 KJV
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. [10] For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. [11] Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Or this?

He calls the one in torment Son

Well I guess from our perspective Sheol is “hell” to us, right, When that’s probably not the best perspective to read that parable from? “Torment” is actually a pretty subjective thing, in my opinion anyway

Hell is nothing more than alienation from God.

We've all been there.

He calls the one in torment Son

Yet there is no torment in Sheol?

Hell is nothing more than alienation from God.

Well I would agree, but in Christianity we have a fairly different mythology for Hell right

I've given you a like, but that doesn't mean I'm in agreement with the Christian understanding of what hell is.

Jesus descended into hell.

Believe what Jesus says about the very real physical hell==
Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

You've wailed and gnashed ever since I've joined this forum.

Acts 7:54 KJV
When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

Stephen offended them when he exposed their religious buildings and religious think for what it truly is . So they bit him.

the Name "Eliezer" means God of help. it's the Hebrew word,
H461 אֱלִיעֶזֶר 'Eliy`ezer (el-ee-eh'-zer) n/p.
1. (meaning) God of help.
2. Eliezer, the name of a Damascene and of ten Israelites.
[from H410 and H5828]
KJV: Eliezer.

Makes me think of: Zechariah 8:23 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
