This is my understanding. Yes, hell is eternal. However, the Book of Revelation is symbolic. Revelation 1:1 says, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John.” Signified here means, “a sign.”

In reference to (Tatian 165 A.D) Most Protestants will claim that the historic Christian faith can be determined from the Bible, but a simple comparison of the multitude of doctrines taught by Protestants makes it clear this is not true. The result of this is that early church history is left far too often to the revisionist history of the Roman…[Read more]

After God asks, “Who among them has declared these things?” He then states, “The Lord loves him; He shall do His pleasure on Babylon, and His arm shall be against the Chaldeans…. I have called him, I have brought him, and his way will prosper.” But who is “him”? The first part of this as “The Lord’s chosen ally will carry out his purpose a…[Read more]

Some of my “research” was done a few years back so, wording of my post today may be a little “iffy.” I make every attempt to quote exactly from the Bible when giving my thoughts/opinions. I pray for the guidance of the Holy Spirit before posting anything. I do not in any way want to “force” anyone to believe what I post. I share what I have found…[Read more]

Gehenna-Valley of (the sons of) Hinnom ( The abode of condemned souls).
Tartarus (Greek)- the deep abyss of torment and suffering.
Hades-The grave. The place of bodily decay.
Sheol-A place of darkness to which the dead go. (Also known as Hades.)
All are different names for hell but, all describe the same torment and suffering.
**condemnation: to…[Read more]

For the past 45 years, God has been using our own presidents to set the stage for end time prophecies. In 1977 Jimmy Carter was elected president. Carter made a political decision that would begin to set the stage for the end time prophecies. Carter told the Shah of Iran that he was cutting ties between Iran and the United States because of Iran’s…[Read more]

I am always amazed at those who believe at all cost that a trinity is scriptural. Even when you show proof that Jesus and God were claimed to be one decades before the Holy Spirit was added to the trinity.

Gotcha. I understood you to be saying that Jesus was God. And you’re correct, He is of the same nature and essence but, Jesus is the Son of God. Two different persons. Be blessed

He (Jesus) is the “word” (God’s messenger.) I know Christ was with God from the beginning and I am researching this now. In the Scriptures, the meaning of the term “beginning” depends on the context. Here the Greek word ar·kheʹ cannot refer to “the beginning” of God the Creator, for he is eternal, having no beginning. (Ps 90:2) It must, therefore…[Read more]

The first thing I want to note is, (2 Peter 1:20) “Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation.”
A triple deity (sometimes referred to as threefold, tripled, triplicate, tripartite, triune or triadic, or as a trinity) is three deities that are worshipped as one. Such deities are…[Read more]

flesh: Or “a human being.” The Greek word “sarx” is here used in the sense of a physical being, a living being with flesh. When Jesus was born as a human, he was no longer a spirit. He did not merely assume a fleshly body, as angels had done in the past. (Ge 18:1-3; 19:1; Jos 5:13-15) Therefore, Jesus could rightly call himself “the Son of man.”…[Read more]

I’m new on this forum so, let me explain my reason for joining this forum. After being misled for 40 of my 60 years on a trinity, I began a search. I asked my pastor a simple question and he couldn’t answer it. The question was on the “rapture.” For the past 10 years I have been researching and reading everything I can get my hands on regarding…[Read more]
