Where are the blind most blind? In their indignation and self status.
We are righteous because of what Jesus has done, but not to allow
us to continue in sin but flee from it.
It is plain many wallow in their condemnation, yet claim they have none.
Lying to others is sin, lying to oneself is delusion.

Eternal life and eternal punishment are forever; as meaning without end, not difficult to understand.
The authority of Jesus;
"He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’ Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

So you only know it is not everlasting when it ends.

Thank you for pointing this out.
You want a passive faith, with no real delivery.
The joke is this is biblical Christianity, yet it bursts the bubble of your powerless
religion and you hate this. I am glad I am not on your side of the fence, because
I have read enough of the animosity you speak with. God bless you, because through
the cross and Christ we are saved.

lol. Anything can be an idol, if it replaces a living relationship.
It is obviously beyond many. I remember going to church out of habit, and then
asking Jesus to teach me something new. When I did ask, He did answer.
It was odd often people who drifted away and then come back had more life.
It was because they expected God to move and did not compromise.
Thank you my friends for spuring me on, I love you all, God bless.

John/Yahanan 14:23, "Yahshua answered, and said to him: If a man loves Me, he will keep My teachings and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him."
John/Yahanan 14:16-21, “And I shall ask the Father, and He shall give you another Helper, to stay with you forever. the Spirit of the Truth, whom the world is unable to receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. But you know Him, for He stays with you and shall be in you. I shall not leave you orphans – I am coming to you. Yet a little while, and the world no longer sees Me, but you shall see Me, because I live, and you shall live. In that day you shall know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. He who possesses My commands and guards them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I shall love him and manifest Myself to him.”
Mat 28:20, “Teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
Mat 24:35, “Heaven and earth may pass away, but My teachings will not pass away.”

How can you possibly say that in light of EG talking about FAITH in JESUS and how you make it into an idol...??
Your statement-->c. Having security in Jesus is an idol
Making security in Christ the definition of a believer or unbeliever is idolatry of assurance.
HOW can having faith and assurance in Christ be an idol....??

Yet notice: having confidence in self above Christ, to PeterJens, is not idolatry.
The above statements of PeterJens, are yet again, heretical and absurd.
How any believer can be said to be an idolater for having security in Christ is asinine. Paul and the rest of the apostles and all true born again believers would then be idolaters.
This is so ridiculous it is almost unbelievable but for the actual quoting of his statements as proof.

I've heard this kind of bad bible talk when I was young and we all called it Santa Clause theology. Mr Jens Bibleology is child like. He never produces scripture verses to back up his false ideas because he cannot. And he thinks he is smarter than everyone here. He has the true gospel near him. Saying that God is blind is terrible
"because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son." Hebrews12:6

Jesus righteousness spray. This idea is God does not see sin because Jesus's righteousness
is sprayed in Gods eyes so He is blind. It is just a stupid idea, but many claim to believe this.
God sees us as we are, and sees who is walking in faith and following Christ and who is not.
