Yet again, reading the Bible through a Greek lens; assuming your English translation properly conveys the meaning of words. Verse in question: Revelation 20:10 10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where[a] the beast and the false prophet are. And they...

And here is the problem. You have no background knowledge of the OT scriptures', nor do you stay in the context of the passage. The context of the passage is Jesus speaking to the Levitical priests: Luke 16:14 4 Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and...

Please explain to me why the Rich man had five brothers. Luke 16:28 28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment

Explain this passage to me please. Mark 9:43-48 New King James Version 43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life [a]maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched— 44 [c]where ‘Their worm does not die...

Thank you for your welcome to CC message, and you're righ To make sure we are in the mind of Jesus, the apostles, and the Jews; when you say "the meek shall inherit the earth (matt 5:5)" where exactly do you think that is coming from? I'm skipping some verse but read all of Psalm 37: Psalm...

The parable was written to a Jewish audience and was a prophesy of the coming destruction Jerusalem and the Levitical priesthood: A. An allegory about Jesus (Lazarus) and the destruction of Jerusalem & Priesthood (The Rich Man) 1. All of the elements of this allegory/parable are drawn from...

So Jesus was just interested in planting some flowers some day, with the thief, huh. That is absurd. Here's the deal though. Yes, the thief did know that Jesus was Messiah and would have a FUTURE reign on earth. Yet, Jesus told him that he would be with Jesus "today". I don't care a bit...

Revelation, like Daniel, isn't in chronological order. Many times a summary will be given in chapter one, and more details of that event will be in chapter 5 (as an example). In chorological order: 1. Tribulation 2. Second coming 3. Thousand years (Millennial kingdom) while Satan is locked...

Did Abel's blood literally cry out? Or is it being used as a metaphor? Genesis 4:9-10 9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?” 10 And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the...

How dare you use the bible to disprove the immortality of the soul doctrine; you're not allowed to do that ;) (joking sarcasm). 1 Timothy 1:17 17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to [a]God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. 1 Timoth 6:13-16 I urge you...

Verse in question: Luke 23:43 43 And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.” What you probably don't know (my assumption). Greek has no punctuation. This is another example of translator bias to fit the grammar with their preconceived theological...

Enlarging font size doesn't do anything; I can read. Why do you refuse to address/harmonize all scriptures beginning in the OT. Don't be selective. From bible program: AndG2532 inG1722 hellG86 he lift upG1869 hisG848 eyes,G3788 beingG5225 inG1722 torments,G931 and seethG3708 AbrahamG11 afar...

Did you actually read all that I wrote in pervious posts or just that last post? If not please go back and read them. I don't want to repeat previous posts. This is another cherry picked verse without an OT foundation. Mark 12:20-27, the question is regarding marriage and husband & wives in the...

I'm so sorry, I missed the part that you underlined in blue; I need to address that. "Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people. (Gen 25:8)." Abraham gathering to his people was the place of the death where he was...

I didn't fail to remember; don't assume. Two things, first, it's not my "use of Is 28". I didn't use it, Paul quoted it and the context of Isaiah 28 is the nation of Israel; that shouldn't even be a debate. And when we read Acts 2 please don't strip it from the historical context, Peter is...

All the dead both righteous and wicked are in hades/sheol/hell/the grave. It's consistent throughout the bible. The word hell/hades doesn't mean a fiery place of torment. I just means pit/grave/the place of those that have died. Jesus said the wicked are tossed into Gehenna (a proper noun of a...

If by after life you mean immediately upon death, no. The "after life" is via the resurrection (ex: Ezekiel 37) when Christ returns and sets up his King here on earth in Jerusalem as king of the nations (Psalm 2), in the promised land which was promised to Abraham and his Seed (Gal 3:16-29) with...

I had to make separate post due to length, but I addressed this in the posts that came after your posts. However, here it is. The issuse is you are assuming that your translation of kjv is correct when it says "ghost", what you're not realizing is the translator bias that is involed in...

The Rich man and Lazarus is a parable, and if you don't understand the OT, you will not understand the meaning of this parable. A. An allegory about Jesus (Lazarus) and the destruction of Jerusalem & Priesthood (The Rich Man) 1. All of the elements of this allegory/parable are drawn from four...

Zechariah 14:16-20 16 And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. Isaiah 25:6-8 And in this mountain The Lord of hosts will make...
