Quoting: karl_gerbschmidt God's judgments are always remedial - whatever is wrong with us, He intends to set right. He understands the mitigating circumstances, etc. None of us stroll through this thing in some kind of moral vacuum uninfluenced by hundreds of factors beyond our own choosing :) "Being in heaven" is only temporary. . .ultimately, He's setting His kingdom up here on earth, which was the whole aim of the project from the outset. It's gonna be good. |

Quoting: karl_gerbschmidt If you die at 50 and go to Heaven, so you stay 50 for eternity---or if you die at 92 and have Alzheimers, do you continue to have Alzheimers for eternity...how bout if you die as a baby--do you stay a baby in which you need constant oversight/caring? Or can you choose an age...I mean I would really like to play basketball again in my prime. Is Heaven or Hell the only options?? What if you are not given your Last Rites and die...do you stay in Purgatory for eternity? Is there a nice Hotel with a Golf Course that you can stay at instead of Heaven or Hell? Any thoughts, just curious. I do find it hard to believe that we will not be Judged for our actions here on Earth. 4 For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion. 5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. 6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. 7 Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

Those who have sinned are punished permanently in the lake of fire. Which is why you need a perfect sacrifice to cover your sins, Because All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. But God commended his love towards us that while we were yet sinner's Christ died for us. For whosoever believeth and call upon the name of the Lord for Salvation, shall be saved. NOT whosoever is baptized, or whosoever does last rites, or whosoever turns over a new leaf, or whosoever repents of all their sins. It's whosoever believeth! There will one day be a new heaven and new Earth and God will dwell with his people. Those who have rejected the free gift of salvation, offered by him through his Son Jesus, are condemned to the lake of fire and forgotten about. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76239181 a) Here's what God's fire actually consists of Thread: what is the baptism of fire ?? how is it different than Holy Spirit baptism? b) Secondly, any "rejection" of Christ is also temporary - ultimately, every knee will bow & every tongue confess Him as Lord to the glory of the Father (Isaiah 45, Philippians 2. . .and are you familiar with Romans 10:9?) He's counted the cost on this thing and isn't going to have to discard anyone like some loser who bit off more than he could chew, or some back-alley lawyer burning evidence of his failure. His sacrifice qualified as payment for the sins of all the world (1 John 2). He's legally purchased this entire field and its contents. Per the Law of the Kinsman Redeemer, He is legally the Master of all mankind, whether we like it, dislike it, recognize it, reject it, whatever.

In heaven, we go back to the prime age, around 30ish. Quoting: Jesus Lives If you die as a baby, or child, you are in heaven but slowly. Last rites are worthless, no such thing as pergutory, and we all do answer for our actions while on earth. interesting that you say that---I had friend that nearly got killed in motorcycle accident---he was in a coma for 4 months, when he came out of it he said he went to Heaven and spoke to a son of one of his friends---turns out this friends' son died while he was in a coma...so he had no way of knowing that he had indeed died when he came out of it. When I relayed this story to another friend, he was surprised that both went straight to Heaven w/o going to purgatory LIVE FREE OR DIE |

Live a life giving to others. Give your love, your compassion to all living creatures. Have empathy. Care. You follow that formula during your lifetime, you can't go wrong. Don't do it for a reason, do it because it's in your soul. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72205179 United States 02/12/2018 08:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2 Revelation 22:1-5 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever. Revelation 21:4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” A few of my favorites |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 24666879 Canada 02/12/2018 08:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | there is no hell, only the most primitive stage of "beginnings" -which is right here where you are now- and not all people are able to ascend to the higher realm because most take many lifetimes & souls to get it correct in order for ascension to be possible. (and some never get it correct) these ones who are not able to ascend higher just constantly reincarnate right back here again in the beginning. and continue this cycle of lessons and trials over & over & over & over again, and for the few who are able to finally ascend higher - their soul becomes immortal into a pure state of healthiness usually around the age of 28 or so |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 75531067 United States 02/12/2018 08:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I would suggest reading the gospel of Nicodemus (Apocrypha) from what he writes he was given the eyes to see in the spirit the moment when Jesus Christ died on the cross and his Spirit went into the earth to remove those that were in the place of waiting or purgatory and take them to Heaven. It gives detailed view of what he saw. I read it, I think it was amazing. |
