You don't even appear to have a rational grasp of nihilism or existential nihilism... You think Protestantism was born out of the idea that nothing has value? I think you just like to hear yourself talk...

WHALA! hahaha! Oh gosh I can't tamp down the silly laughter tonight. Geesh! :LOL: This reminds me of when I heard a man say: for all intencent purposes. I asked him what intencent meant. He had no idea at all! :LOL:

Oh good grief, you have that avatar of Seinfeld and I actually HEARD Seinfelds voice say what you typed here, in that sort of whiny high pitched voice.

I'm going to step away from conversation with you until the MarkWilliams who first came in here and grabbed our hearts comes back.

I don't have the money for the very best lexicon and 20 other sources...and no disciple for a long time had a lexicon and 20 other sources. So...I think I'll be okay with my bible and the Holy Spirit and my Strongs. :)

Well...I figure if a man can only kill my temporary body but God can kill both my body AND my soul, then that's a pretty total destruction. If a man kills my body, I will get a new one from God but what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

No church or denomination or gathering has perfect knowledge or is without any errors of any sort. Some have more errors and some less I suppose. And some with more minor errors or misunderstandings of God and some with more major errors or misunderstandings. The one catholic woman I know who...

I think it's not black and white for the reason that we aren't meant to judge or condemn men, to declare them saved or condemned. It's Gods' work to judge men.

I can't explain it at all max. I'm not kidding when I say I was completely floored and dazed. I'm not sure I could even relate the whole episode. The two men came to the house I was housesitting. I knew they were coming. The woman whose house I was watching had told me she arranged for them to...

I think it was arrogant. Yes, I'm free to my opinion. Sometimes I even speak my opinion, if I feel someone is being rude to a brother. You are free to completely disregard and ignore what I think.

Yes, I decided to do it the way I have always done it instead of to keep trying to do it online, which gets too confusing to me. It is in fact apollumi and it;s definition in Strongs is: destroy fully. What I will normally do is take that back to the verse and if it makes really, really good...

I agree that it was a slam and meant as a slam to ask if you actually read and study your bible. I think it was arrogant. And that has nothing to do with if I agree with you or him on any given matter. I could agree with him on 90% of things and disagree with you (shrume) on 90% of things, and...

I'm not seeing how to experience destruction does not support being destructed or completely ruined/annihilated. Of course, I am thinking of...say a building, that faces destruction, complete ruination, demolition. I'm not seeing that experience destruction is a different thing to say than...

The passage deals with a person sinning, not with demons...it has to do with two or more agreeing on a matter that the person would not listen about from the one who went to them privately...

Yes. They appear from reading to possibly be humans who are actually indwelt by satan himself. :sick:

And also, the verse you gave there also has helped me to better understand the verse that says it will be better off/more tolerable on the day of judgement for Sodom than for some others. So thanks again. :)

Wow...I have not noted that verse penned! I absolutely have to revise my thinking. Those who receive the mark will also receive the full strength of Gods' wrath/eternal torment. You are right - there will be some humans other than the two of the unholy trinity. Thanks!!

I've met some catholics who absolutely love God and have received the Holy Spirit. They have many confusions that make me sad for them, but almost all of them, once they had the time to really sit down and realize they were too confused to keep going on the way they were, have eventually left...

No church you can find to attend doesn't have some errors. You cannot demand that people have perfect knowledge and be without any error to be saved or you are NOT preaching the gospel.

I do understand the other view. I do understand what your view is. It's not the same view as mine, but I understand it. And discussing this with you guys has really, really helped me a lot. OF course I would prefer to not be talked meanly to, but nevertheless, I've been greatly helped. It...
