Then how do you explain The everlasting fire does not necessarily imply perpetual existence of the individual. The furnace in the parable of the Tares consumes the tares as waste. From the point of view of that parable, the wicked are the waste of the moral world, and they are cast into the consuming fire, not so much to punish them, as to get rid of them. How far the category of waste can be properly applied to human souls is a question of the same sort as that which ask, Can a being endowed with freewill fitly be compared to clay in the hands of a potter?

45 | heaven NO, the grave, Yes | 2 Cor 5:8 | heman | 233776 | ||
Would then these experts be correct? HELL. This is the word generally and unfortunately used by our translators to render the Hebrew Sheol, or:"aidhs, and once Uanatos, 2 Sam. xxii. 6: Inferi or Inferna, or sometimes Mors). We say unfortunately, because although, as St. Augustine truly asserts, Sheol,with its equivalents Inferi and Hades, are never used in a good sense (De Gen. ad Lit. xii. 33), yet the English word Hell is mixed up with numberless associations entirely foreign to the minds of the ancient Hebrews. It perhaps have been better to retain the Hebrew word Sheol, or else render it always by " the grave " or " the pit." Ewald accepts Luther's word Holle; even Unterwelt, (the underworld, place of the dead) DR. WILLIAM SMITH'S DICTIONARY OF THE BIBLE; Page 1038 |

That WAS a question and who are you to tell me which to select? Futhermore you need to address the POST and not the POSTER! So, then, why does BRUCE say, "The everlasting fire does not necessarily imply perpetual existence of the individual. The furnace in the parable of the Tares consumes the tares as waste. From the point of view of that parable, the wicked are the waste of the moral world, and they are cast into the consuming fire, not so much to punish them, as to get rid of them. How far the category of waste can be properly applied to human souls is a question of the same sort as that which ask, Can a being endowed with freewill fitly be compared to clay in the hands of a potter?" These points are noticed by Weiss, vide Das Matthaus-Evangelium, S. 539. The Kingdom of God, BRUCE Who do you think the tares are? What do you think will happen to them according to the Bible? Especially, when Jesus says, how often, would I have gathered thy children, and ye would not." Mat 23:37 KJV The everlasting fire is, not less than the other figures, only a symbol, as appears from the fact that, taken literally, it excludes from the region of possibility the " outer darkness." All these figures are the products of the religious imagination, and express in sensuous terms the intense conviction of the enlightened conscience as to the blessedness of being good and the misery of being evil. Dives wished one sent from the dead to give a glowing description of the place of torment to his brethren, that they might not come into it. But our Lord represents Abraham as replying, " If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead." The theme of their preaching was righteousness here and now. Christ meant to teach that he who has no ear for their doctrine cannot be made a citizen of the divine kingdom by the terrors of hell, however vividly depicted The Kingdom of God, BRUCE |

48 | I NEED SCRIPTURES | 1 Tim 5:17 | heman | 233990 | ||
REVERENCE OUR PASTORS? WE only owe reverance to our GOD. We should all be ministers of Christ. 1Co 4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. Rom 10:15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Act 13:26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. Who killed our Christ? Mat 26:59 Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; Jer 23:11 For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD. Who gave any preachers/Priests authority to continue to preach after that which had already been accomplished? Col 1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and WHICH WAS PREACHED TO EVERY CREATURE which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; Jer 23:21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. 22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. 31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith. 36 And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God. Jer 14:11 Then said the LORD unto me, Pray not for this people for their good. 14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

49 | God, brings wicked to destruction | 2 Tim 2:15 | heman | 233923 | ||
Have you been dispised by failing to know that God is the Destroyer? But You, O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of destruction; Ps 55:23 The Sons of God are all Angels and one of them was appointed the task of being an Adversary to test Job. Job 19:21 Pity me! pity me! ye, my friends, for, the hand of GOD, hath stricken me! Job 15:23 He wanders abroad for food, saying, Where is it? He knows that the day of darkness and destruction is already close upon him. Job 26:6 Sheol (the place of the dead) is naked before God, and Abaddon (the place of destruction) has no covering [from His eyes]. Job 33:18 He holds him back from the pit [of destruction], and his life from perishing by the sword [of God's destructive judgments]. Ps 55:23 But You, O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of destruction; men of blood and treachery shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in, lean on, and confidently rely on You. Prov 13:13 Whoever despises the word and counsel [of God] brings destruction upon himself, but he who [reverently] fears and respects the commandment [of God] is rewarded. Prov 27:20 Sheol (the place of the dead) and Abaddon (the place of destruction) are never satisfied; so [the lust of] the eyes of man is never satisfied. [Prov. 30:16; Hab. 2:5.] Is 13:6 Wail, for the day of the Lord is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty and Sufficient One [Shaddai] will it come! [Gen. 17:1.] Jer 17:18 Let those be put to shame who persecute me, but let me not be put to shame; let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction. [see Jud 1:12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.] Ezek 38:16 And you shall come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land. In the latter days I will bring you against My land, that the nations may know, understand, and realize Me when My holiness shall be vindicated through you [vindicated and honored in your overwhelming destruction], O Gog, before their eyes. Hos 13:14 Should I ransom them from the power of Sheol (the place of the dead)? Should I redeem them from death? O death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your destruction? Relenting and compassion are hidden from My eyes. [I Cor. 15:55.] |

50 | God, brings wicked to destruction | 2 Tim 2:15 | heman | 233935 | ||
Don't you know that it is God who controls evil and not a literal devil?Job 27:1 Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal. Job 27:11 To forsake the Devil is to forsake the worship of Demons or Ghosts and of all false gods whatsoever collectively called the Devil. The “Devil”, then, is a symbol of lust and an vivid hypostatization of idolatry in aggregate. This language cannot be reconciled with the orthodox position. ..and rejecting the devil as a supernatural evil being: Satan is nothing else but Adversary, and is to be understood according to the Subject to which it is applied. Thus being bound of Satan means no more than that which was an Adversary to Health, be it what it would. The cases of demon-possession in the Synoptic Gospels do not describe the activity of literal devils, but instead reflect the (mistaken) beliefs of first-century Jews...to beleive that men or weomen can really divine, charm, inchant, bewitch or converse with spirits is a superstition and that the orthodox understanding of demons was an early heresy imported from paganism:the devil in Scripture was never the supernatural evil being of orthodox theology, and that all temptation comes from the lust of the heart:those who claim to be tempted by a personal devil are deluded and provoked by their own fleshly imagination. http://dlxs2.library.cornell.edu/ Job 2:1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and the adversary came also among them to present himself before the LORD.In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:10 Job 12:9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? Job 27:22 For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand. Job 2:10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. Job 19:21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me. ..why is it that demon possession was so frequent in the 1st century, and yet so rare since and yet find scarce any mention of them before, or any authentic accounts of them since that time; in contemporary authors of other countries? http://dlxs2.library.cornell.edu/ |
