Jesus parable about the Rich man and Lazarus supports the interpretation of being held in punishment now. Moses and the Prophets warn of a place of torment awaiting the wicked dead. Jesus brought even more revelation. It's an old topic on CC. I've posted scriptures and presented sound...

Who cares. Punishment is eternal misery by any other name.

The rest of that text about Sodom, it says those that were destroyed, are held "under punishment for the day of judgment," You can use any translation you like they are all similar. The example he emphasizes is what I put in red. This is the message. That there is punishment for their...

They would be eternally spiritually dead in hell. This suffering eternal punishment is not equal to Eternal life and this type of reasoning suggests a natural mind that does not understand spiritual things.

The debate is centuries old. There are lots of books and theological articles in journals where both sides have presented their scriptures and reasons for interpretations and the eternal punishment view always trumps the annihilationist's view. This is not a matter of deception but of...

Hades and Hell are the same as Sheol and Gehenna. Hebrew and Greek and English. Yes I know that Gehenna was the valley of Hinnom where babies were sacrificed and judgment was declared on it and it became a burning trash dump but it was a word used to represent the hade, sheol, hell of the...

What you are describing is being lead by the Holy Spirit to speak a word in season to someone and operate in the gifts of the Spirit. All believers should be living this way. Of course only those who are fully committed to the life of the Spiritual gifts will do so. 1 Cor 2:14 Those who are...

I don't think that philosophical or theological reasoning on the nature of the human soul is what Jesus taught about and I have never felt the need to discuss that. I simply believe Jesus straight forward words and those of the writers of the New Testament were about eternal punishment and...

Use it for memorizing scriptures. For example, if you wanted to memorize the entire chapter of 2 Peter 1 you could tear out that page and put it in your wallet. When you are standing in a long grocery line or in a waiting room, or taking a lunch break, or many other situations, you pull it...

I don't understand that question. Anything that Jesus taught is what the Early Church taught. Unless you are talking about quotes from some of the oldest writings left by Christians mislabeled as "Early Church Fathers" but should be called "Early Church Writers" because they are not...

This discussion has centuries of history behind it. The annihilationist view is the favored view of Christian sub cults like the Jehovah Witnesses, and Seventh Day Adventist, but they did not invent this view. In the academic presentations to present a scholarly defense of their...

And yet there are additional recent studies that suggest that the toxic effects of acetaldehyde is worse than the benefits. I have been reading these as they come out. There are some Youtubes with a medical expertd who uses cadavers to show the exact path of the alcohol from tongue and mouth...

I think the main point has to do with the story of redemption, the need for a savior, and the promised seed still to come when this all went done. It set the path for that redemption lineage story.

Well there you go then. See there's nothing new under the sun.

I already said he drank wine. But they did not see him over indulge. Those that accused him of being a wine bibber drank the same as he did. They accused him of something they did not think that they were guilty of. If they drank wine but did not over indulge then seeing Jesus drink wine...

Those flushable are the way to go. Much cleaner. I can't believe my momma didn't train me with those. All those stinky folks walking around being stinky unnecessarily.

So true.
