Bible Note: Greetings BT and welcome to the forum, It seems to me that the end of your informative post, with reference to the following, smacks of purgatory or its equal? You stated, “That being so, Jesus’ promise would reasonably point to a restoration of such earthly “paradisiacal” condition. His promise to the wrongdoer would therefore give assured hope of a resurrection of such an unrighteous one to an opportunity to life in that restored Paradise” Am I reading you right? CDBJ |
