    Have you survived child abuse?

    I agree. You didn't ask about everyone, you asked about me. I gave you the answer about how God has helped me to forgive and go about my life. Does that work for everyone, no. Sometimes as children of God, we have a thorn in our side that we can't get rid of, something that we pray for God to...

    Trump's sins committed over 10 years ago? Christians should care not

    Yeah, watched that interview. He is wrong of course. Doing good, does you no good. Hopefully and prayerfully someone will tell him the Gospel and that good works do not forgive sins. At the time of the interview. I agree, he said that. But does he feel the same today? Again, we don't know that...

    Trump's sins committed over 10 years ago? Christians should care not

    If President Trump has repented of His sins. They are forgiven, gone, no longer exist, in God's view or memory. They are not counted against him. "Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, who sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord doesn't count against him and in whose...

    The Eternality of Hell

    Yes, all of them Gehanna = Hell Hades = Hell Tartarus = Hell.. You see the word hell wasn't the word used in the original word. Because it wasn't even a word at that time. There are many thoughts on where the word hell came from. The closest where people agree is that it comes from the norse...

    The Eternality of Hell

    Yes and no. As we both agreed, at the time of His Crucifixion, and resurrection. Is the time of grace for the Gentiles. We need to read Romans 11. In the 2nd verse Paul says that Israel is not cast away and points to himself as evidence. He became a follower of Christ and he worked for the...

    Am I forgiven? I've been shaken by this for years.

    ooorah, If you have ask Christ to forgive you of your sins. He is righteous and just to forgive you of those sins. What you are doing is letting your heart condemn you of a sin, that God has forgotten about. The scripture tells us not to do that: 1 John 3:20-21 For if our heart condemn us...

    The Eternality of Hell

    Okay, lets read the whole thing from v12....context. v12. Some were saying that there is no resurrection. v13. Paul makes a pretty solid point - If no resurrection of the dead, then Christ did not rise. v14. If Christ hadn't rose. Then our preaching of the Gospel is vain, and so is your faith...

    The Eternality of Hell

    Hebrews is speaking of the End of Age, I believe. Matthew 16 is about the destruction of the temple and the persecution the Jews will receive before, from Nero and then after the destruction in 70 AD. Those who were alive when Christ spoke those words were alive during that time. Many died...

    The Eternality of Hell

    That's a good question. God certainly doesn't have to give us our bodies back. But He does. Again, it comes down to His plan and His thoughts. We don't even come close to scratching the surface of either of those. I think it's pretty awesome. Think of it. If a saint in life, suffers from...

    The Eternality of Hell

    No, I was mistaken. Matthew 13:40 is for our future. Heb 9:26, Is just telling about Christ dying for our sin.
