remembering that before the flood the society was so evil and full of wickedness that there has no more room for more evil --- if yahweh had allowed mankind to keep going they would soon have destroyed themselves, all in wickedness who were wicked with nothing at all good from them,,,,, and any righteous ones being sorely vexed daily (same as LOT in s.and g.)....
I am glad you brought this up.
What is the moral issue of why the people in Noah's time were destroyed by a world wide global flood by God?
#1. "People were Really Evil"
Now, do you think these people in Noah's time were innocent and nice? The Scriptures say they were evil men and their thoughts were evil continually.
#2. "Demon Human Hybrids"
Also, the Bible tells us that there were giants (half demon half human hybrids) in those days, too. This surely was not a nice world to live in.
#3. "What About The World Today?"
I mean, could you imagine how horrible things would be today if such an evil world was not destroyed and continued to exist today? Things would be 100 times more corrupt and evil than they would be now. You probably would not be alive or you would have to face horrible atrocities or immoral acts in your every day to day life. So God loved us. God was protecting mankind from living in such a dark world.
So in conclusion, when people say: "Oh, I am not that bad", or "I am not really harming anyone by doing this little bad thing"; they are seriously deluding themselves. God will not tolerate people who do horrible things or rebel against His good ways and nature. When we rebel against God we are also rebelling against all the good God stands for, too. People lie, cheat, steal, kill, and are lustful. They don't realize that their ways are dangerous and not good for them. God loves the person but hates the sin. He wants all people to change and accept His loving gift of salvation (which is free for all who want it). This is the result of God creating free willed beings that would choose to either love Him (i.e. which would be "true love") or reject Him.

I believe in "Dual Conditional Immortality." I believe in a literal Hell, and I believe the story of the Richman and Lazarus is 100% literal and true; But I do not think "hell" or "torments" is a torture chamber where people are being burned in flames, but it is a place of torment like the Bible says. It is more like a really really bad prison (that you don't want to go to). The Lake of Fire is a place where the wicked will be destroyed both body and soul (See Matthew 10:28 --- the English word "hell" is used in place for the Greek word "Gehenna", which is a reference to the Lake of Fire).

Jak795 post 38 stated that "But He also expects said sinner to cease repeating the sin."
Your responce in post 55 was "Most others here will not agree with that"
That statement in post 55 is a lie.
I and the many you lie about will agree with post 38.
Jason you continue to lie about every one who disagrees with your heresy.
I pray that God shuts your lying mouth.

jason. e.w.bullinger proved the truth simply from GOD'S WORD, with REVELATION. (concerning the rich man and lazarus).
it is totally, completely "true", from Yahweh, from Yahshua,
but no man on earth carnal or in the flesh or unredeemed (i.e. none of those opposed to Jesus body) (including the religious bogies here) comprehends GOD'S REVELATION. as you have seen, and everyone watching who has eyes to see, most (here) don't even seek TRUTH, let alone know any TRUTH; rather they oppose it, proving by their vain arguing that there is no Light inside them.....
