Where in scripture does it say that? Are you trying to claim Genesis is a parable?

Gen 1....... GAP...... Gen 2.

No, I was inferring it.

The RCC introduced infant baptism, by fear also. Claiming, if a baby died before being baptised it would go to hell.

Eternal burning in hell does not exist. So, your fear is based on misunderstanding of scripture. The myth of eternal torture in hell is a creation of the RCC. Devised to control the masses by fear.

You are correct. I miss read post #109. Somehow I missed the word "no" in you quote. Therefore, I publically apologize. And I also feel foolish.

Because you said, they will LIVE forever in torment.... Then you go on to say, they will NOT SEE LIFE. Are you confused, or do you just like making contradiction?

So, you think being conscious is not being alive?

Not at all. Just as I'm sure you wasn't implying I haven't read the whole chapter!

The thing with that translation is, if it sounds quaint, it is detracting from the significance of the message.

Interesting.... Obviously reading the Bible is not clear to everyone. Example: When a Catholic reads the Bible they see Jesus had no sibling. Yet, when a Protestant reads the Bible they see that Jesus did have siblings. So, who is not with Christ regarding this matter?

Actually reading the whole book trumps reading half a chapter. At the end of the book some will have an opinion and some will have the truth!

I prefer the NKJV.... Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness,

Only to those that don't understand it... Then one fnds mirth in their own context!
