    What is your opinion of Jesus?

    Since the wicked are ' destroyed forever ' - Psalm 92:7; Psalm 104:35; Psalm 145:20 ; Proverbs 2:21-22 - there is No need for them to be part of a second resurrection but rather: second death - Revelation 21:8 The living figurative ' sheep ' at the time of Matthew 25:31-34,37 are not alone on...

    Why ‘us vs them’?

    I agree there is levels of waywardness that esculate beyond unrighteous behaviour, that would manifest to the level of wickedness. It may be that wickedness ends in the 2nd death, that of the Spirit. Regards Tony

    Why ‘us vs them’?

    To me there is a difference between the three: righteous/ unrighteous/ wicked. In the Bible both the righteous and unrighteous (KJV just and unjust) will have a resurrection. - Acts 24:15 Whereas, the wicked will be gone ' destroyed forever ' - Psalms 92:7; 104:35; 145:20; Proverbs 2:21-22 The...

    What is your opinion of Jesus?

    Sure it was 'easy enough' in the paradisical Garden of Eden - Genesis 2:17 I find it is the 'god' of this world of badness - 2nd Corinthians 4:4, aka sinner Satan the Devil - John 8:44 - who threw a monkey wrench into God's purpose of Genesis 1:28 _________ If you were out working in your...

    What do you think of Purgatory?

    That same Bible ALSO prescribes different penalties for different sins. Some sins get the death penalty. Some get only a fine. Some have no penalty at all. So the Bible certainly does not TREAT all sins the same.

    What do you think of Purgatory?

    In Scripture sin is either: deliberate or not, on purpose or not, intentional or not, premeditated or not...... The wages ( total complete asking price that sin pays in full is: death - Romans 6:7 ) ALL have the opportunity to 'repent ' if one does Not want to 'perish' - 2nd Peter 3:9 Under the...

    What do you think of Purgatory?

    Two comments: 1. The word used in the original Greek for Acts 2:27 says HADES. Hades was simply the abode of the dead, not hell, more comparable to Sheol in Judaism. NOT HELL. 2. I'm not sure why you think I would care about anything in the New Testament. Would you also like to quote the...

    What do you think of Purgatory?

    At Jesus' death Jesus went to biblical hell aka temporary grave - Acts 2:27 - which is Not Gehenna Gehenna was a garbage pit outside of Jerusalem where things were: destroyed. Thus, Gehenna is a fitting word for: destruction. Please notice it is the 'wicked' who are ' destroyed forever ' -...

    Why Does Religion Exist

    Religion in general does Not have to be about one's purpose even though an inquiring mind wants to know. People do look to religion for answers but often religion is corrupted even going as far back to ancient Babylon. As those ancient people migrated away from ancient Babylon they took with...

    One God or many gods

    If God is Infinity then there can be many Jesus. How would NT explain that.

    One God or many gods

    Yes, agree that God cares about righteousness. Resurrection according to Acts 24:15 is for the righteous, but also includes the unrighteous. The Bible speaks of a resurrection of both the righteous and unrighteous ( King James Version says ' just and unjust ') It is the 'wicked' who will be...

    One God or many gods

    There is no Bad Son Satan in the OT -- with respect to rebelling against God. .. the Devil of Revelations is NOT Ha Satan .. You could say that the tester of souls can be a barrier to humans .. .. like the talking donkey scene where Ha Satan blocks the way and directs Balaam down a...

    One God or many gods

    We find God had two Son/son's: One good Son aka Jesus and one bad son aka Satan. Jesus is the King mentioned at Matthew 25:34 I find ' the tester of souls ', so to speak, is one's reaction to Scripture - John 12:48-50 So, how the figurative 'sheep and goats' have treated Jesus' spiritual '...

    What is God's highest priority?

    Good point above because as Danny Kaye concluded without birth control there is No solution. On TV I never see any fathers being held responsible for the on-going poverty children they help make. In So. America one man said he needed lots of children so at least one would survive to take care...

    What is God's highest priority?

    That makes sense to me, that it is God's desire that the earth is to be inhabited by willing, cooperative humans. Unlike for the most part, today's inhabitants.

    What is God's highest priority?

    The above shows the calamity result of what happened to those wicked ones because of their wickedness. How God punishes the wicked is found at -> Psalm 37:38; Psalm 92:7; Psalm 104:35; Psalm 145:20; Proverbs 2:21-22 The wicked will be ' destroyed forever '. Resurrection is for the righteous and...

    What is God's highest priority?

    I find God's highest priority as far as Earth is concerned is that Earth be inhabited - Isaiah 45:18 Inhabited by humble meek people as promised at Matthew 5:5 from Psalms 37:9-11; 22:26 Calamity against the wicked is what awaits the wicked - Psalms 37:38; 92:7; 104:35; 145:20; Proverbs 2:21-22

    “The Son is equal to his Father”

    Dead Jesus did Not go to a 'religious-myth hell of burning forever' because there is No fire in 'sheol' biblical hell/grave. If biblical hell/grave/sheol was a permanent place Jesus would still be there - Acts 2:27 KJV translated the word Gehenna into English as: hell fire. Gehenna was a...

    Why do christianity get so much hate?

    False clergy may teach 'go to forever in hell' ( as in burn forever ) but that is Not what the Bible teaches. Biblical hell is simply mankind's temporary stone-cold grave for the 'sleeping' dead. That is why Jesus and the OT both teach 'sleep in death'. - Psalms 6:5; 13:3; 115:17; Isaiah...

    What Part of Your Religion or Worldview Brings You the Most Comfort or Reassurance?

    Thank you for posting the ^ above ^. I don't know which version you are using but the King James says it is the just and unjust at Acts 24:15. In the Greek/English Interlinear Translation it also is: just ones and unjust ones. So,it is Not the wicked because the 'wicked are destroyed forever'...
