Unless You Are Saved Through The Grace Of Jesus Christ You Are Going To Hell.

[Theland]

God is real, hell is real, and it is your choice whether or not you wake up to reality and accept the free gift of salvation.
The alternative is too horrible to consider.
It is either / or, there is no other way.
Save yourself. Now.

[ynnafymmi]

Theland has yet to answer my original question-where was God when wee toddlers were being herded into the gas chambers.He/She was nowhere to be seen.No divine intervention from Thelands God,perhaps Thelands God is an angel of Satan.

Theland takes a vacation when difficult questions are asked.
He'll come back soon with amnisia of previous questions asked and a host of 'Fullfilled prophecies' from the *Good Book*.
Bet your bottom half he will start with Israel.......
(All misquoted of course)

[Theland]

I never have amnesia, nor do I duck questions.
I do, however, avoid the stupid tit for tat silliness that is the hallmark of Nailit, usually accompanied by some abuse.

[Theland]

Nailit, your ignorance of the bible is astounding, considering how you brag about reading it so often.
You certainly don't understand what you read, and your frustration translates into anger.
That is not the way to learn.

[nailit]

Theland,
//Nailit, your ignorance of the bible is astounding, considering how you brag about reading it so often//
Unlike yourself you mean?
The ABer who admits he hasnt read it
and has to rely on You Tube vids to back up his claims?

Tell me Theland...
Where is my mum now?
My mum that you set me condolences for?
Is she in hell?
(According to your scriptures)

[nailit]

*Sent*

[nailit]

No need to beat about the bush.
A straight answer will suffice.

[nailit]

Unless you are on vacation again...

[Mozz71]

Theland- //...nor do I duck questions.//

That line should be in the Jokes section.

[nailit]

Come on Theland...
Is my non-believing mum (who requested a humanist funeral) in heaven or burning in hell right now?
Its not a difficult question.
If she's in hell, then how can I EVER be happy in heaven, knowing that my mum is been tortured forever?

If she's in heaven, then how can SHE ever be happy knowing that her son...heretic that he his...is been tortured for ever?

[nailit]

From your OP
//The alternative is too horrible to consider//
But can you justify it?

[jourdain2]

I agree that God is real. I agree that Hell is real - if you accept that Hell is the absence of God's love, which comes closer to my beliefs.

Because God is love, anyone who repents/comes to terms with that even in their last moments is saved because they have accepted God. Ergo 'Hell' does not apply.

I'll be slammed, I daresay, but it sort of expresses what I feel. Not a Theologian. It's so much more complicated than that. When we act on a goodly impulse, God is with us and does not have to be expressed through a church or system of beliefs.

Best I can do. :)

[nailit]

// if you accept that Hell is the absence of God's love//
Which is nowhere to be found in the Bible.
An attempt at 'softening' an absurd/unjust doctrine.

[Theland]

What are you so scared of if you don't believe?
I think you do believe and that scares you.

[nailit]

Im not scared at all Theland.
Ive come to accept the fact that all living things die.
Been *conscious* of the fact that im a living being is the price I pay for the knowledge that one day I will cease to exist.

Now, back to my question.
According to your belief system, is my mum in hell?
Again, a simple yes or no. Its not difficult, just look into your scriptures.

[Mamyalynne]

For goodness sake Theland, answer his question (as you see it to be, regardless of whether he believes you or not).

It's my view that some of us create our own Hell right here on Earth and thereby waste a lot of time - this thread has certainly reinforced my view.

[Theland]

Nailits incessant questioning about something he should be able to answer himself if he is indeed the biblical expert he wants us to believe, is quite simply answered by directing the question to Jesus.

[jim360]

I have nothing to add, I just wanted to claim answer 360 as is my birth right.
