Not reading but talking to other people translates as " don't confuse me with the facts, my mind has already bee made up"
Sounds more like a J.W. Forum.
I seen your lengthy reply spaglard and I see you nicely avoided any exigesis of the passages concerned. And I also noticed that you think I take the whole bible literally. As I explained, maybe your having trouble interpreting, that I believe the bible originals to be literal. But not in every...
Don't worry guys and gals. No swearing in this thread. I just want to ask a few questions regarding fundamentalism.
Now I'll nail my flag to the mast right away and say I am a fundamentalist. Meaning I believe what the bible says and I choose it over all else.
Bit why is the word...
My daughter is six and some of the jokes she comes off with are classics.
Do you know any jokes an under ten has told you that you actually laughed at?
Why not post it here.
Here's my daughters one.
Why did the man with one arm cross the road?

Apparently, and I will admit I have not personally researched this , but pre Christian Hebrew scholars took this to be about messiah. I really don't see how they can make it to be about the nation is real. But thanks for the reply.
Appologise for spelling etc, but as some of you know, I don't get much time and inpm usually knaclered when I'm on, so although I'm sorry, it will continue :-)
All this talk about figuritive language etc is starting to fall into the realms of liberalism. Lets start with scriptures. I'll start with one. Someone mentioned about tartaros being mythological. I don't care where the word got it's origins. It is a word according to the lexicons that means the...
Re: Terrified of Hell...
If the lake of fire is going to be on this earth, and it is going to be forever, what does this make of it
      11Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12looking for and...
Re: Terrified of Hell...
I should add that it could indeed be the location where the lake of fire will be, but for me, it's literal, eternal torment and fire.
Re: Terrified of Hell...
I am well aware of that and that's perfectly true, it was a trash pit,therefore it's impossible that there is a lake of fire with the same name ?
Re: Terrified of Hell...
Just by way of interest
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment
The word hell there is from Tartaros (a Gr. name for the abode of the damned)
It's the...
Re: Terrified of Hell...
Well, there are three hells , there is hades, tatarus, and gahenna. We don't have much description of tatarus ( where some of the devils angels are kept ) but the other 2 are literal. I mean you say about the fire consuming spirit and therefore say its a metaphore...
Re: Terrified of Hell...
Well there are other things that could be stated. I studied cults and the differences and I can't remember all the texts etc, but I had it in my mind settled, hell is for real and if a sinner gets saved because a preacher tells him that his sins will take him to an...
Re: Terrified of Hell...
I might look at it sometime thanks. But for me, I have studied it a long time ago and most other views are unscriptural or they impose meanings and twist texts but I am content to go by what the scriptures say, and if I'm wrong,ill prefer to be wrong for believing the...
A fast jump from an answer to none. You know as well as I do that we are not agreeing on the role or identity of the 144000.
What I'm asking you is where will the 2 witnesses in rev 11 ( I said 13 earlier, my mistake ) will get their power?
