Scriptures that contradict the traditional view of Hell.Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”Psalms 21:9“Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.”Psalms 37:10What will…[Read more]

@ palalForever means for an age. It doesn't mean eternity. It is the word 'eon'. If it meant eternity, then Satan would be a god for eternity because it says that He is the God of this world which is the same word 'eon'. In other words in both cases it means AGE. Likewise when you say that the wicked suffer forever, that is the same word 'eon'.1…[Read more]

I thought it useful to have a topic on geological and other scientific proof of a catastrophic flood world or global flood.

Here are some yes/no questions for you.Is Jesus literally a god?Was Nicodemus the Pharisees literally a god?Is Gabriel (Angel) literally a god?Are you literally a god? Is Satan literally a god?Is Satan literally a devil?Was Judas literally a devil?

Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 11 2013,14:20)For example, I can METAPHORICALLY be a rock.  I cannot QUALITATIVELY be a rock.  Jesus can METAPHORICALLY be a cornerstone or a lamb, but he cannot QUALITATIVELY be those things.But you can have qualities of things. Jesus called some brothers sons of thunder (I think).You are Peter (rock).If you prefer to u…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 11 2013,14:20)YOUR point?    No, that is MY point!Mike, I have not advocated that John 1:1c says, The Word was god. It is that technically, but is not intelligble in English. This is the problem with it. I have said all along you need to use a word in English like divine or a sentence to describe the original thought. T…[Read more]

It does. The Comma Johanneum being the most glaring example.The AKJV wasn't translated from the oldest and more relaible texts. The AKJV was also translated before the discovery of the Dea Sea Scrolls.While no translation is perfect, people who believe that the AKJV is, are clearly wrong. IMO, it is the least accurate, but still accurate enough to…[Read more]

Eternal life means to always live.Eternal death means to always be dead, (not live).Eternal destruction means to always be destroyed.Why does eternal destruction have to mean not destroyed forever. Isn't that what you are saying palal?Eternal destruction is eternal punishment because it is permanent, not because it is ongoing and never arriving to…[Read more]

Genesis 19:24Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah–from the LORD out of the heavens.Luke 17:29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.Jude 7:In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve…[Read more]

I made this reply to a comment on the . Thought I would also quote it here for its relevance.https://heavennet.net/writings/is-hell-eternal/We know the truth shall set us free and yet we are somehow conditioned to be scared to question what most take for granted. But I believe that it was that fear that lead to the domination of RCC doctrines and…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 10 2013,16:03)All of your examples DO have the indefinite article “a”.  I'm asking for an example of someone being “qualitatively something” where we CANNOT, in English, use the indefinite article “a”.Okay, I misunderstood your question then.You want me to take a sentence and work it without using the indefinite article.…[Read more]

No problem 2b.No one had posted so you can change it and if it is just grammatical, then you can change it even after a post. So long as we are honest and not trying to cover our tracks when we make a mistake. Better to front up and say a mistake was made.

bob is a devil.You are a rock.You are an angel. You said it yourself, you are not a spirit being.But you can use this if you know the rules and how it is applied. Unfortunately most do not know this when it comes to theos.

Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 10 2013,15:27)Let me know if you ever find an instance where one is qualitatively something but can NOT be called “a something” in English.Eve is a adam.Eve is a man.

In English we say mankind for the word adam. So that was one way to get around saying “Eve belongs to adam”. “Eve belongs to mankind”. Notice how both those sentences are the same, but mean different things? This is why John 1:1c is so confusing. If you are unfamiliar with the rules, you can read it in the wrong way.So if we can use the word…[Read more]
