@Proclaimer,

There are tares and wheat. The tares are the children of the evil one and the wheat are the children of God. During the Millenial Reign, the evil one is restrained, so I guess that demonic temptation is not forthcoming, only one’s own flesh.

At the end, the evil one is released to harvest the tares that may not be obvious during the…

Yes once dead one cannot be rejudged for past sin in the resurrection.

So what is the second death for?

@Proclaimer,

The soul that sins will die.

Absolutely, G-d said so; but, what must one do to live? (Ezek 18)

Therefore, death is the price of sin and it is a required payment.

When did G-d say death is the “required payment” for sin?

God is also merciful.

Absolutely!! He tells us HE is AND freely forgives those who come to HIM with a repentant hea…[Read more]

I finally realize the difference between christianity and what is written in the Tanakh concerning sin; christianity believes sin is a condition or an attribute/characteristic of humanity, consider themselves dirty rags, and thus need a “redeemer” to be forgiven; the Tanakh teaches sin is an action and you have a c…

(Proclaimer) It does not say, “It is written”, but rather, “it hath been said”.

Hi desiretruth.

I see you have a problem that I see many others have today. No matter what is put forth, people are stubborn like mules and refuse to change. But I am not responsible for decisions that only you can make. I simply put forth truth and if someone hears it they have ears and if they cannot hear it, they are deaf. If they…

@Proclaimer,

You say the Jesus prophesied of his own death for the sins of others; I’ll ask again, when did God change his mind and say the innocent can take on the guilt of the wicked?

The idea of the innocent bearing the guilt of the wicked is a key theme in the New Testament. It’s not about God changing His mind but rather a gradual r…

You: God is not a man. He is also not an angel. He doesn’t have a body. He is an eternal spirit.

Me: Can I say DUH!! I have never once stated the contrary. What I have said is God loves HIS creation; why doesn’t christianity understand that? I have never claimed to know or understand why good and bad things happen in the world, t…[Read more]

You: the messiah came to fulfil many things spoken of and ritualised.

Me: I have asked over and over again if Jesus accomplished what the Tanakh said the Messiah was to do when he comes, and even provided references from the Tanakh asking if Jesus accomplished what was said. None have provided an answer.

You: Now we live in a time…[Read more]

@proclaimer and all,

Updated info about the workers of iniquity aka freemasons.
They are trying to move us to commit the blasphemy against the Spirit of the Father and the Son.
Because the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
(Mark 3:28-30)
The solution is simple just accept the whole Bible.

@Proclaimer,
In response to post #945105

You quoted me:
“God said he is our salvation, not that I have to go through another. God said to repent, turn from your wickedness, and your sin will be remembered no more. God said HE had no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desired they turn from their wickedness and live. What god do you s…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

It is hard to admit but I’m no longer sure if we live on a flat earth.
I accused you of being a coward but the truth is that I am the coward.
I simply cannot answer many of your objections.
So I did ignore your questions and hide behind some memes.
That’s cowardliness.
I apologize for accusing you of many things.
