The meaning of Gehenna (GeHinnom) hasn't changed? it's always been along the lines of: A place of spiritual punishment and/or purification for a period of up to 12 months after death. Gehenna also aligns with the Judaic teaching of She'ol too, as they seem to have similar definitions...

What did he use instead? Was it tartarus he used instead? Rather than Gehenna? Or Hades? Thanks for the link!! :) I'll go have a read at it

I've been looking into the Koine Greek New Testament. Especially at the word "hell" For instance Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. κα&#8054...

Nope. In China there is class difference, private land ownership, private labor ownership and a free market. People no longer live in Communes either. Therefore does not adhere to Marxist-Leninist-Maoist ideology that it used to. Therefore not Communist. North Korea and China both are not...

Doesn't mean it's Communist. It's ruled by a Communist Party but it's not economically communist. Yes it does lol Communism is an economic ideology. The Soviet state-capitalist system was not communist either. It China has a market, class system, private labor ownership and private land...

You either serve your country or you serve humanity. I'd serve humanity any day over my country. Snowden is a traitor to a country, but a hero to humanity.

China isn't a Communist State If it was then there would be no multinational Corporations making American bibles there ;)

That would explain a lot

Syphilis? :o

That's true. But most Chinese could be Christian anyway For instance China do not release census' publicly, so there is no telling how many Christians are there. Some estimates are that there is 100,000,000 Christians. As there is a lot of "underground Churches" outside the China state...

Chinese labor is as cheap as chips. That's why they go there. China has relaxed on their suppression of Christianity as of recently though. Although it is tightly controlled, it's not as merely as bad. China is the future of Christianity too :)

Snowden is a world hero! The world is CHEERING for him I laugh at all the "Christians" that are calling him a "Traitor" ^_^ Seriously, compare this to Jesus. He stood up against the corrupt Jewish Priests of his time. We should stand up against the corrupt Priests of our time (The Anglo-US...

I'm trying to learn German Why don't you try Memrise? It was designed by specialists in memory. www,Memrise,com Ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch Memrise ist sehr gut

What translation is it? It may be made with Chinese workforce, but it could be an American company, because remember China is not Communist anymore. There are lots of multinational companies in China doing all different sorts of things

No that's not true. It was Himmler & other high ranking SS generals that dabbled into the Nordic Pagan mystery religions. Not Hitler; he actually had arguments against Himmler about it. Also, there is no evidence that he left his faith either, although he sometimes had negative viewpoints of...

Ah, thank you very much. I've also been told by some people that Sola Fide means that you can do whatever you like; even kill, and still go to heaven! Thanks for explaining again! But i've always interpreted John 14:6 as: When Jesus says "through me" he meant by "acting like me"... Oh well! :)

Excuse my ignorance, but isn't Salvation through grace and Sola Fide pretty much the same thing?

Okay :) So am I misunderstanding Sola Fide? Because I was always taught it was if you where baptized and exclaim that Jesus is your lord and savior; you where saved regardless of any actions. So that was why Germany ran riot after Luther translated a bible verse slightly incorrectly What about...

So does that mean Sola Fide is not correct? That you're judged on your actions? :confused:
