Sorry it took so long to answer...have been under the weather for a little while. But as to the first question about God caring about us...IS GOD UNCARING AND HARDHEARTED? Many people think that the answer to that question is yes. ‘If God cared,’they reason,‘would not the world be a very...

Are you serious? The same God that punished ancient nations for doing the same things to their children? You think God would sit and watch this for all eternity? If so, please get to know the God of the Bible. You are mistaken.

Remember now...John says Revelation was written in signs...representing something...not literal. The torment is not in a literal sense. It means something. But if our minds are set...we are not reasonable.

Exactly the point...not torment

Check the translation of Hell: Hebrew: Sheol and in Greek: Hades both mean the grave. The idea of fire and torment come from pagan non-christian beliefs. The God of the Bible hates this false representation of his justice!

Not an accurate Bible teaching. Pray to God for the truth he will answer you.

Hell and Hades are translated grave. Faiths have been misled to believe that the loving God of the Bible would torment persons forever. He has never done that all throughout Bible history. Why did he not torment the Canaanites, Philistines, Ammonites etc? Will he now bring them back from the...

Must be a different God than the one in the Bible you are speaking of...pray to him that you can really get to know him.

Agreed. The God of the Bible is a God of love and does not desire any to be destroyed. Tormented is out of the question! He would not under the Law Covenant even allow animals or slaves to be mistreated. Eternal torment? Who can you be speaking of? Not Jehovah.

Not all who attain everlasting life are granted immortality by God which means the inability to die and self sustained life, not dependent on anything. By being cast into the Lake of Fire the demons as well as any humans cast there will be destroyed forever. God has no delight in hearing persons...

Thank you Mr. Peterson! The Bible agrees...

Hell is an incorrect rendering of sheol in Hebrew and Hades in Greek. Both mean mankind's common grave. This eternal torment dogma has been handed down over the ages to frighten people way back from the days of Babylon. If we refuse to repent and submit to God...he has never in history...

Ceasing to exist means exactly that. No more consciousness of anything. Satan too will be thrown into the lake of fire which means eternal destruction.

Keep on studying my friend and may the loving God of the Bible reveal himself to you...

I am so sorry that we disagree. The God of the Bible is a loving God who would never torment anyone. Destroy yes...only as a last resort and to his deep hurt. Hell, is a mistranslation of sheol in Hebrew and Hades in Greek. It has NEVER meant eternal torment. When Jesus spoke of Gehenna (a...

A very interesting analysis. I have never heard the message of the Bible combined in this way. However, the Bible's message is very simple and clear. So simple that even a child can grasp it with a little help. To understand your thread I had to go back to my school years when I learned of some...

Wow. I certainly have enjoyed your scriptural answers to that question! Very good. You must be a very deep student of the Bible. Thank you.

How would you answer in a personal way? Though I appreciate the scientific approach lol!
