The, only, reason the believers in Jesus Christ might have a different understanding of the Scriptures is because they don’t have the correct interpretation, YET. Our God is not a God of disorder! The Holy Spirit is the Interpreter for the believer. We are all on different levels of Spiritual learning and insight, and no one has a right to insult another believer as you did to me. You don’t have the right to judge anyone’s biblical understanding. Shame on you! ✝️🇺🇸
Believers, don’t fall for the nonsense that hell isn’t real. That is Satan’s influence and lie. It’s very real and as long as you have breath, you can escape eternal hell by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, today. ✝️🇺🇸
You're quite a character 😐 You are getting worked up about a little spat on a forum, I wonder what you'll do when I show there is no literal satan 😮 You just go on living in the illusion that you know it all. Do you realize there are over 30,000 Christian denominations world wide? Princeton Theological Seminary claims 47,000, The World Christian Encyclopedia put it at over 30,000 back in 2001, Gordon Conwel Theological seminary puts it above 45,000. The point being, you don't have a corner on what Christians think the bible means. All those denominations didn't splinter up 'cause they all belived the same things.
I know it may be comforting to think you got it all worked out but by gosh, it's obvious LOTS of Christians don't see it your way. If I were you, I'd read the information I posted. Who knows you might learn a thing or two.
Have a good day and try not to get so worked up

@sally Do you realize that there was suppose to be ONE Christian faith with Jesus Christ as the Head and Cornerstone of Christianity. He is the Cornerstone of Jews and Gentiles. In biblical times, the cornerstone of a house was the strongest structure holding the rest of the house together! Leave it to mankind to subvert the entire biblical intention of the Lord having One church and One Head. Peter was N O T the head. He was designated a leader with the responsibility of bringing the Jews and gentiles together under One Head; Jesus Christ!
If you ,as you say, want the words that are translated 'Hell' from the bible, try this

Pretty interesting reading
@sally Hell is real, Sally, and I’m not worked up because I am saved in Christ; just like millions of other Christian’s who have the Holy Spirit guiding them through this, travelled, training ground, called earth, and on our way to eternal life in heaven. ✝️🇺🇸
@dmacmanes I say Hell is not real. It is my hill to die on dmac. Once you understand the broader picture of God's love, you begin to realize that we are all made in God's image and all need help. 😀 The problem you have is that you've marginalized much of Gods creation by saying there is a HELL. So if there is a place of eternal torment, than you must do such and such to escape that horror. HORROR. Not a loving God.
Here is the rub, the question of the ages. How does a person keep themself from going to your place called hell?
hello dmacmanes, After thinking about our back and fourths, I have to ask, can you give me some idea of the era you were born? To be honest I have not had this type of interaction from anyone other than older more established folks. I myself are what most would call older, but I realize that sometimes what I say frustrates folks who have set in stone beliefs.
If there is a way I can meet you half way, and at least we could have a conversation about what we each think what the bible is about, I'd like that.
I'd love to have a bible study, but I don't believe the war room forum is the time or place for such a thing. But we could talk.
In love
Sal
