1 | What happens to our soul when we die? | Luke 12:20 | srbaegon | 156800 | ||
Hello SBoone, You are changing the normal understanding of words to conform to your theology. Feel free to assume that Scripture means what it says. Rev 14:9-11 (ESV) And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink the wine of God’s wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name." Steve |

2 | What happens to our soul when we die? | Luke 12:20 | SBoone | 156808 | ||
Hi Mark, Is 34:9,10 uses the same wording as the verse in Rev 14:9-11, regarding the destruction of Edom. Smoke goes up forever, and with burning that will not be quenched night or day. If after you have thoughtfully and prayerfully considered all the texts on both side of this issue and you can honestly tell yourself (in your heart)that you accept the scriptures as the word of God whether it is in harmony with our theology or not, then you are truly a disciple of Christ (John 8:31,32). I believe this allows room for disagreements in love. As Christians we can agree to disagree and pray for one another that we will be lead by the Spirit to a fuller understanding of scripture (which I understand may be me and I keep 1 Cor 2:13 to heart "which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining the spiritual thoughts with spiritual words"). God Bless |

Hello SBoone, Now you are taking words out of context to make them equivalent. I cannot agree to disagree with one who takes a dishonest view of Scripture. Steve |

4 | What happens to our soul when we die? | Luke 12:20 | SBoone | 156839 | ||
You are absolutely correct. We don't agree to disagree on false theology. Titus 1:9 says "Holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctine and to refute those who contradict. Mark too pointed out that I was misunderstanding the true nature of what was happening in Is 34. Thank you for setting me straight. I am sorry my ingnorance led to this error. Please forgive me. God Bless, SBoone |

SBoone - Having spent more than four years on this Forum, I've had the occasion to observe thousands of posts. This has led me to wonder at a number of phenomena, prime among them being the frequency, the absolute certainty, and even the cavalier flair with which some registrants dash off their posts in rapid-fire staccato fashion on highly complex issues about which oceans of theologically oriented tomes have been written by venerable scholars over many years. It seems prudent for non-swimmers to stay out of deep water, and for the less learned to absorb knowledge than attempt to impart it. --Hank | ||||||

Your point is well taken. I certainly apologize if my posts appear to be "cavalier" in any way. Thank you SBoone |
