    Billy Graham....I couldn't believe it!

    You go to heaven by having total faith in the Gospel message. You have faith in Jesus when He said "I am the way, the truth, and the life". To give credence to other religions is blasphemy and deserves Hell.

    Billy Graham....I couldn't believe it!

    I am concerned about a dead "evangelist" because I am concerned about the modern church as a whole! If the most loved evangelist had it wrong, how many others have it wrong? Did you take the time to watch the video I posted? It is very enlightening!

    Billy Graham....I couldn't believe it!

    We all have faults, flaws, and blind spots but when your actual beliefs are contrary to The Word Of God, you are being lead by Satan and you will NOT inherit the Kingdom of God.

    Billy Graham....I couldn't believe it!

    If I said Billy Graham may very well be headed for Hell, would you believe it? A year ago, I would not have believed it but I found new evidence that indicates that he may very well indeed be headed for Hell. Why??? The why is because what he preached on the pulpit in front of thousands upon...

    Might as well say my piece to non-Christians. It may or may not make a difference.

    I pray for you that she has the strength from you to continue to avoid the pressure of turning to Socialism/Communism! God Bless.

    Annihilationism Simplified

    Yes, again we see scripture in the Old Testament that talks of destruction, not eternal punishment.

    Our Daughters

    I know that both males and females are caught up in this push to Socialism/Communism but there's something about looking a beautiful young woman who's heart is so hard and who has been so deceived by Satan that my heart aches and tears come to my eyes. I think about my own daughter who is in...

    Annihilationism Simplified

    I'll admit I didn't read all of your post but you and I agree on the basic question: "Torturing is completely out of Gods character of love." When we see something that does not fit God's character, we should question it! I don't think there is any other issue found in God's word that does not...

    Annihilationism Simplified

    This again a very strong argument for annihilationism. "Destruction", not eternal punishment.

    Annihilationism Simplified

    As I understand it, this was a parable told by Jesus to the Pharisees. He wrote it in a symbolic way that THEY would understand. He was NOT writing it to Christians as AN ACTUAL PICTURE OF WHAT HELL WILL BE LIKE. For instance, how could the "spirit" of a man be thirsty? It is obviously...

    If God is all knowing, why did He create ....

    I don't know where you get the idea that ALL this stuff you mention, in itself, would send you to hell. God is loving and forgiving. There are things we are going to do that are not in His "perfect will", but those are not usually the things we need to REPENT of. A true Christian has The Holy...

    Annihilationism Simplified

    A very long and exhaustive reply but long and exhaustive does not always equal correct.

    Annihilationism Simplified

    Yes! That is why I say there are a lot of scriptures on the side of annihilationism.

    Thank you for your reply. I'm still at 90% for now but maybe God will show me more.

    Annihilationism Simplified

    I'm not trying to "correct God"! I'm just trying to figure out what He's really saying about damnation in His Word.

    Annihilationism Simplified

    I am 72 years old and have been a born again Christian most of my life. Until a few years ago, I had never heard of the theology of annihilationism. I had been taught that the unbeliever suffers eternally in the fires of Hell. I've always had a problem with that and I've talked to God about...

    It's been awhile.

    I'm still trying to figure that out. Healthy retired people do all kinds of things but I have multiple chronic health problems that limit my possibilities. I try to do things with my grandsons but my daughter is so possessive of them that she gives me very little time to be with them. Her...
