Clearly, your arguement is with Scripture, not with me

Lpe04 said:Hey brother,
I appreciate your views. The only reason I can't except this view is that if God didn't want anyone to end up in this "hell of eternal torment" then no one would go there. Remeber, God is in charge of all, He makes the choices over His creation. When God created the world and set up what would happen to unbelievers, He could have choosen "death/perishing/Second Death" or Eternal Torment, since you even understand that God would never torment anyone and would not have them go there, then He would set it up for unbelievers to perish, not to be tormented for ever. This compliments my Heavenly Father's nature and matches with His Word.
God Bless
ertsky said:sorry Jerrysch i seem to have misunderstood you
i'm trying to say amongst other things that the word hell is a bad translation of the original hebrew word sheol and greek word hades and that gehenna and lake of fire are not places of eternal torture
are you saying i am wrong in this?
i agree that
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
but i dont agree that this lake of fire constitutes eternal torture.
ertsky said:Rom 11:32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
Rom 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
i read these verses then think well people are telling me His ways are found out He's going to torture everyone forever but these verses don't agree with that !
then when i look up the original greek and hebrew words for hell i find it is an invention of man or worse the adversary.
well i hold to the Truth
His mercy endures forever !
Jerrysch said:Are you suggesting that God will grant eternal life to all ?

Lpe04 said:The scriptures clearly beyone a doubt show the Lake of Fire to be a place where the unbelievers and evil will perish, cease to exist, be reduced to ashes, face the Second Death.
ertsky said:sheol and hades
i humbly submit to you that the gospel of the kingdom has in times past been perverted into the turn or torture type of thing ..it is bad!!
daverain said:However:
---------
The way certain 'Bible Thumpers'
(who -REALLY- -DO- 'thump' people)
talk about hell...
They -DO- imply
(falsely)
that God would want
people to go there.
No -WONDER- so many people will reject God.
(editing, not finished)
Jerrysch said:This judgement really isn't fair, no one here has advocated that God wants a person to go to hell (and yet I have not been talking about hell)
daverain said:Um, no. That's garbage. That says a LIE (could the motive be -GREED-? )
Who are these idiots that just repeat everything without seeing if it's true or not?
(Those are the idiots who are -THUMPING- people 'out of God's kingdom', and should -SHUT UP-. )
daverain said:I didn't say (or imply) anyone -HERE- has done this (or is doing this).
People -ARE- doing this though.
Example:
--------
Have you ever heard this one, that people say? :
'Jesus spoke more about hell, than He did about heaven.'
Um, no. That's garbage. That says a LIE (could the motive be -GREED-? )
Who are these idiots that just repeat everything without seeing if it's true or not?
(Those are the idiots who are -THUMPING- people 'out of God's kingdom', and should -SHUT UP-. )
Oh well,
thank God that
'You can't fool all of the people all of the time'
