Bible Answer: Lenpaul, What good does it do me to answer your questions and try to form a dialog with you when you ignore my response and completely change the subject with your reply; it makes me feel like a non entity! Let’s try and start over if you would please? Maybe you could answer one of my questions, and only you personally have the answer for this one? I will change it up a little from the last time I ask, in my previous post. Question: With all of the time you’ve spent studying the Bible, have you come to the place yet, in your spiritual understanding, where you can say “for certain” that you have the guarantee of eternal life with God in heaven?
