    Narrow is the Way

    Here is one of those verses that really religious people try to abuse. Matthew 7:13,14 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in therein" Lets look at it : First.... Narrow is the way...

    Is Loving Jesus Back Required For Salvation?

    No. This is at least my stance. All you have to do is believe and proclaim Jesus as Lord. See Romans 10:9-10. Recently an atheist wrote "Jesus is at the door, knock knock, let me in. Why? So I can save you. From what? From what Im going to do to you if you don't let me in." Letting Jesus in is...

    I think I’m in hell. Please help me get to the bottom of this.

    I want to explain this well but I don’t know if I can for you all to see what it was like. It’s a long read. I remember I sang this song called satan is your master when I was 14. I didn’t think it was bad or anything. It was catchy. When I was about 15 or 16 I got obsessed with climate change...

    God Created a Hell. Is It Horribly Unfair?

    I recently read complaints about hell in another thread. Creating hell was evil and so on ... according to the author of such claims. That's why I responded here, it would have been off topic there. My answer to this question, no it's not horribly unfair. You need the seperation aspect. When...

    I think I blasphemed the Holy Spirit and I'm going to hell now

    Prayer is needed. I'm afraid I committed the blasphemy of the holy spirit and doubted the existence of God and thr reliability of the bible. Hi, I'm suffering from blasphemous thoughts as well. I was watching this Christian film called "Chosen" and at the end of the EPISODE 1, I doubted that...

    I don’t think God loves me

    Hi, my name is Megan. I don’t think God loves me because He chose me to be an Esau. And in the scriptures, it says He hated Esau. And that He has mercy on whom He has mercy and chooses to harden who He wants to harden. (Romans 9) I remember reading that when I was a teenager and I didn’t like...

    Where is Demas ?

    Demas was a born again Son of God, who became so under the Ministry of the Apostle Paul. Later, he backslid, left Paul, and the bible does not record what happened to him afterwards. Here is what happened... "when we were yet UNGODLY, Christ died for us..." "to You that WORKETH NOT< but...

    Gehenna and Hell?

    Gehenna Definition and Meaning - Bible Dictionary The original meaning of the word is missing in the translated word as I understood before. I used to think it as some place in the spiritual realm that is set on everlasting flame/fire from where people cannot die or escape. So what exactly did...

    I'm reaching out here because I am desperate for help

    I'm nervous about writing this but I don't know what else to do. I've never done this before and I'm scared so please bear with me. First I think it would be important to mention that I have a form of autism known as nonverbal communication disorder. A loved one told me that those with autism...

    What it means to fear God

    This is what it means to fear God... Judgment day is today; the eyes of the judge are on you at this very moment, so prove your case to him while it is time. A blind faith that Jesus came so that God's eyes have been made blind to a corrupted life is an ignorant hope. Jesus came to show each...

    What if you’re wrong about hell?

    From a CWR (Christianity Without Religion) article by Brad Jersak titled: What if you’re wrong about hell? (Source link: Q&R with Brad Jersak: What if you're wrong about hell?) Note this is more to read at the link than what I have posted in the OP here. Comments and discussion welcome...

    The State of the Dead!!!

    The State of the Dead Psalm 6:5 KJV — For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? Psalm 88:10 KJV — Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah. Psalm 115:17 KJV — The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go...

    Sin at the time of death

    Let's say you are saved. If you are sinning at the exact moment of your death (anger, having bad thoughts, etc)---say a car or truck crashes into your car and you die instantly---will you go to hell? If you were lusting over someone the night before, and you know you'll probably do it again...

    Will people go to Hell for worshipping on Sunday?

    Or being eliminated, whatever. Is that really what Sabbatarians believe?

    Regret in Hell?

    *You are in the Orthodox Forum* I was watching a video and the Youtuber said that the worse suffering for those in hell is the fact that they could have achieved heaven eternally. I think he quoted Thomas Aquinas so that's why I am asking if there is something like that in Orthodoxy? Also, in...

    No such thing in scripture as 3 compartments of hell

    I have gone out on a limb in the claim that there is no Bible statement in OT or NT claiming that hell is divided into three parts, or that Paradise is in hell, or that paradise is the first compartment in hell or any such thing as that. so if I am wrong this should be pretty easy to point out...

    Should I worry more about Hell?

    When I was a kid, I was afraid to do any bad stuff because I didn't want to go to hell. Nowadays, I know I have to remain in grace, otherwise I will be doomed, but I don't feel the same fear I once had. Is that something to worry about? I don't want to burn.

    Eternal punishment or annihilation?

    The Bible tells us that we are all sinners. Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead to atone for our sins, and anyone who repents and puts his faith in him will be forgiven and receive eternal life. After this life is over we will be with Christ for all eternity. But this is the fate of all...
