EdB, I do understand what you are saying. This is not the first time I've heard people speaking what you are saying. However, showing you your error requires not long thought process, but the discipline to actually stop and look at individual passages to see if they support or condemn your theological statements. I admit I am a bit saddened that you are unwilling to actually buckle down and discuss a given passage of scripture. You continue to cry "proof texting!" each time I try to direct our attention to actual passages, and with this one phrase you quickly hurry on to your own theological stances. No discussion concerning scripture can be settled without the hard work and discipline of exegeting passages. Unless you are willing to do that we will keep just spouting our own rhetoric. I suppose part of me is happy and welcomes the end of the discussion, the other part of me regrets that so few are willing to really discuss the Bible rather than simply state their views repeatedly. May God bless you. In Christ, Beja |

Beja, I've been following your discussion with Ed and I think you're missing the fact that what Ed is saying is not that there's not a future judgment, but that there is no need of one. I think he agrees that scripture clearly states that there is a Throne judgment of all the unsaved, he's just simply stating what scripture also says, when the unrepentant dies in his/her sins, judgment at that moment is passed, the day of salvation for that person has come and gone. Because he is right in that there really is no need of a judgment and because you are right in that there is indeed a future judgment it gives me hope to think that because the latter judgment is on the "deeds" of the unrepentant, that perhaps there are levels of punishment, that the "good person" who just happened to not be a saved person is not judged or punished equally with the truly evil unrepentant. (As there are different rewards and crowns to be handed out to His own according to their works or deeds, hopefully there will be lesser and greater degrees of punishment for the unsaved also according to their works and or deeds. There are some mighty fine unsaved people who have lived in this world and done wonderful things for humankind.) |
