Quote (IM4Truth @ July 30 2007,00:16)The trinity believes that the Holy spirit is a Person.But an actual person? Or just a term that was used?

What about all these people who have died and then were brought back to life by the grace of God? Many of them have claimed to have seen Hell firsthand, yet many have claimed to have seen Heaven firsthand, as well.

Even if there isn't a rapture – which I'm positive that there will be – there would have to be a great calamity or problem affecting the whole world that kicks off The Great Tribulation and the rise of the antichrist. Could it be an attack on Israel? I feel bad for them in that they are surrounded 22 to 1 by 22 Arab states/nations.

Oh sorry I put two Mark 9: 43-48 verses there. The last verse doesn't come from that passage.

These verses don't indicate that Hell is real?Matthew 25:41 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.Mark 9:43-4843 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Nov. 28 2006,05:58)Hi t4h, Why should we be burdened by those of the world? We should not be not of the world. We are given light burdens.He means to say in his second sentence, that we should not be of the world. Just had to make a friendly correction their, pal.

Quote (t8 @ Mar. 29 2007,12:25)The universe to God is like my shirt to me.My shirt isn't me, so I don't think the universe is God.I would assume that God transcends all physical things because he is spirit.
