Terrorism has come to mean persons or groups who create terror for an ideology of some kind. But the word may have to have to take on the wider meaning you say it has if they want to call ISIS terrorists as they have a self-declared state. If their state becomes recognised in years to come, they would not be considered terrorists by the usual definition.

To be consistent across all scripture that teaches destruction of the wicked, these kinds of descriptions can equally mean that the fire (destruction) is eternal or permanent. It could also turn out that the fire that destroys the wicked, the earth, cosmos, could be eternal and left as a reminder. But that is no indication that the wicked, the…[Read more]

Yes some will be beaten with more stripes so to speak.
It doesn’t say that they will never be destroyed and we know from many other scriptures that the wicked will indeed be destroyed. That is what we know, but cannot provide the exact details of when or whether some are destroyed instantly or if there are varying times before destruction happens…[Read more]

“Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore.

I guess the popular use of terrorism is those who cannot afford war. You often here comments like they cannot directly fight against the might of the USA or coalition, so they resort to terrorism. But yeah, all war installs terror that is for sure. And it is a hard topic to tackle too.
e.g., Should the UK and Europe have declared war against…[Read more]
