Quoting: Aiyanna Here's the thread : Thread: Atheists are fools? (Page 3) And here was my question that i am digging for an answer for: "If Majority of us will be going to hell for all enternity and burned with fire, and burned with cigarettes, And ass raped by demons etc..etc.. I just can't make sense of this..If we die we leave behind our physical bodies therefore we are spiritual- correct? Then how would i be burned with fire in the spiritual world? Isn't a fire's "burning pain" a physical emotion? So how would i feel -physical- fire burning my spiritual body?" (quoting myself from the thread) Does anyone know how this will be possible? You're getting caught up in what other people think and interpret about the Bible and the afterlife. Maybe instead, you should take a step back to discern the facts. To me, it seems that this is the crux that everyone bases their belief on God. Whether or not Heaven and Hell exists... In my honest opinion this obviously plays into a material and emotional attachment the individual has while experiencing this material existence. Nevertheless, many would want to hope that Heaven is real because they wish to see their lost loved ones on the other-side. On the reverse, they feel that if they buy into Heaven, they have to buy into Hell too and that if they are a bad Christian - they'll go to a lake of fire for ever and ever and ever Amen. But again, what has shaped this perception of the afterlife? What purpose does fearing death have? No one wants to die, we don't know what is on the otherside, even though there are many who have claimed to have gone there or what have you. REGARDLESS, to me, Heaven and Hell is as simple as Christ had explained it. Heaven and Hell is found within, to find atonement, or At-one-ment, to be at peace - to no longer fight the inner demons and accepting who you are. This is heaven, it is a state of mind. Like a monk at a monastry who meditates daily - this is the same process. To reach enlightenment. Hell - is to me, not a place you go, but again a state of mind. Hell is to live each day with a burning regret inside. To never let go of your mistakes. Christ taught that we are all born of Sin and that we are all imperfect in the eyes of the Lord. Indeed this would be true because we are sinful lusty creatures. I have no problem accepting what I am. Again though, those who regret and fight the tide, never accepting and yet live on to carry their grudge, they are burning inside. They are in hell. As their miserable world spirals out of control, who will save their fall? Again, step back and think about the information you receive. Then, the easiest thing to ask yourself is what purpose does this serve? If you find yourself answering by saying either fear or control, then that is MANS influence. God gave you freewill. That just made sense. I don't know how and why but this clicked together some stuff i have read..and made alot of sense..I don't know how to explain it but.."imperfect in the eyes of the lord"..this is something in my mind that has never left. It is the root of all the paths for me from the beginning. Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.

Jesus never taught any of those things. Those were perversions to control the masses, isn't that obvious? The teaching of Yeshua were simple, and benevolent. He wanted everyone to see that we were children of God. What did the church do? Take the divinity away from the COMMON folk and placed it all on ONE person, who happens to be "dead/gone." So now you got a bunch of truthers who think they've found Satan and identified him, and stick to their religion, which was ironically enough created by the forces they claim to be against! What a joke! |

REVELATION 13 ("From" can be also translated as "before" in the greek) 8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the LAMB slain from the foundation of the world. Hebrews 9 (The gospel is clear without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins) 22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no REMISSION. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 (Old testament believers could not be with God without their sins being paid for,the Bible records many in heaven before the cross) 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be ABSENT from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Matthew 17 (This happen before the cross) 1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them MOSES and Elias talking with him. Luke 23 (The thief on the cross,this was prior before the resurrection) 42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in PARADISE. God has open the eyes of many to this truth in the last couple of years,this was in his timing. |

Maximus Padicus User ID: 2673912 United States 01/04/2012 10:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "HELL should be a simple concept to the many scientific minds present here. Since it is understood that the soul is an energy that cannot die, and that one's consciousness is retained after they shed this earthly body. Hell, is a REASSIGNMENT of the soul. In this vast universe of many worlds and systems, your soul(you) could find yourself being born on a planet that is similar to Earth, but with none of the creature comforts that we take for granted here. The entire planet could be a frozen wasteland where just mere survival would be a daily chore. Or, a place of burning torment where the planet is too close to it's sun. Trust me, God is both powerful and creative in getting your soul's attention. And, He would not even have to work hard at it. The work is already done. It would be as simple as you moving from one office building to the next. But, that was not God's original intention for the human soul. Hell was designed for the Fallen and the original darkness that chose to go against The Father's Will. This is why God setup specific instructions and a plan to redeem man back to Him after we surrendered control of this planet to Satan. His plan was Jesus Christ. God's ambassador made flesh for mankind. |

Regardless, live by the golden rule - harm none - have faith for love,live and God. Live well and let be what will be. If you can do that, life becomes a lot easier. I must admit... I myself, have not been able to come to this completely. I fall often, far too many times to count. But again, all of this is already known. As I said, I am glad this has helped you some. At-least you are open minded to different perspectives. A lot of people, it seems to me, attempt to justify their belief by fighting others.

Luke 12:5 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death" (Revelation 21:8) He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. john 3:18 Hell is real, i would suggest avoiding it. |

777 User ID: 7078293 United States 01/04/2012 11:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I explained in a thread above....THERE WAS NO ONE BEFORE JESUS... PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SAVED BY THE CROSS.. THE CROSS STRETCHES BACKWARD AND FORWARD IN TIME. WE ARE SAVED BY JESUS' SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS. HE FULFILLED THE LAW. THE NEW TESTAMENT FULFILLED THE OLD. THE SAINTS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT WERE SAVED BY THE CROSS...LOOKING FORWARD TO THE CROSS. THE OLD TESTAMENT IS FILLED WITH REFERENCES TO AND PICTURES OF THE CROSS AND JESUS' SACRIFICE, FULFILLING THE LAWS. IT'S THE CROSS OF CHRIST THAT SAVES... FROM THE BEGINNING OF MANKIND. YOU ARE WRONG. Jesus was hung on a pole,tree,stake Never said he didn't........The Bible has provide evidence that Christ (GOD) die before the foundation of the world (Re-read the post)I'm sorry,but you have provided nothing but what you were taught and have not disputed the scriptures with scriptural evidence nor have provide one to substantiate this claim. This doctrine is what the church has taught for many,many years because they knew no other way to explain it,their spiritual eyes were not open to this and many other truth's,everything is in God's timing. The understanding of God's word did not cease with what the church has taught and ordain as truth since Pentecost,truth has not been idle for hundreds of years.The problem is the church has exalted themselves as the authority over the Bible with their creeds,confessions and doctrines and quit listening to the word of God. God's people are to be like the "berens" and search the scriptures to find out if these things are true and the believer is always open to correction. I have "Never" heard a pastor,church,etc.. ever say they were wrong in some area of their belief and they have corrected it,why? Our worse enemy "Pride".............. Gods church admits openly and often she's wrong. Because HE is working with weak vessels and the CHURCH of GOD know's that truth above all. Without GOD ALMIGHTY we are nothing |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 764206 United States 01/04/2012 11:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ok so some questions came into my mind while reading a thread about atheist are fools and etc. Now i'm not technically an atheist but the question is still lingering and in need of an answer! Quoting: Aiyanna Here's the thread : Thread: Atheists are fools? (Page 3) And here was my question that i am digging for an answer for: "If Majority of us will be going to hell for all enternity and burned with fire, and burned with cigarettes, And ass raped by demons etc..etc.. I just can't make sense of this..If we die we leave behind our physical bodies therefore we are spiritual- correct? Then how would i be burned with fire in the spiritual world? Isn't a fire's "burning pain" a physical emotion? So how would i feel -physical- fire burning my spiritual body?" (quoting myself from the thread) Does anyone know how this will be possible? I'm late to the party, but I can take this one... You feel all the same physical sensations of your five senses (heightened, actually) when you are in heaven or hell in spirit. The fire of hell was demonstrated to Moses in the burning bush - it is the fire that burns but does not consume (destroy). After the General Judgment on the Last Day, you will receive your body back. So, if you are in hell you will receive a corrupted body to join your spirit. This will add to your pains. If you are in heaven, you will receive a perfected body, which will add to your joy. |

It is a real, physical place (under the earth) where the condemned suffer eternally. It is also a state of separation from God. The fire and burning pain from the soul's realization that is eternally separated from God is the greatest suffering of hell itself. |
