What a load of old codswallop. Pure unadulterated crap.
Nobody knows what happens when you die and the only guy to 'alledgedly' have returned from the dead never had anything to say.
PURE CONJECTURE AND AN EXERCISE IN FANTASY.
Great, we leave a whack job religion to be greeted by a whack job visionary offering us the 'real' answer...
It is too bad that logical evidence is the only thing left out of these fantastic dreams. Rational people are willing to debate the logic - others just find a favorite holy writ to thump.

I have taken away all uncertainty as to what will happen to me when I die. I have arranged to be cremated and my ashes scattered into a fast flowing river. That will be the end.
I would like to fix the date but my wife has endless holidays planned which I must survive to pay for, so my departure will have to take its natural course.
To those who are looking forward to floating around bodiless in an invisible realm, with nothing to do except pick your invisible, feeling-less noses, I ask this; have you ever seriously considered whether you actually want to spend eternity in limbo sucking up to the big daddy to avoid being snuffed out?
...uh...
Hey sis
Even if folks have a hard time with this, this is REALLY what they wanna hear.
Cuz everyone has a hard time believing a God that... IS LOVE would BURN or TORTURE any of our loved ones.
Ever been to a funeral where the director talks about the deceased being in a hellfire and spending the entire discourse trying to comfort the family?
just a thought from
justmom (kim)
"the ways of a fool seem right in his own eyes." (Proverbs 12:15) Those who have followed the gnostic formula from the first century are hard to reason with; especially when they seem to have so much time to sit in front of their computer screen.,
I know, 'mom (peace to you!)... and so does our Lord. He HATES when folks lie about stuff like this - stuff that makes the Most Holy One of Israel out to be some kind of blood-thirsty monster-god who gets great joy from the smell of burning flesh and bone. That's WHY he said that HE came... to bear witness... to the TRUTH! HE not burn anyone... for a second, let alone forever. But he did say that if saw HIM... you also saw God... because he did NOTHING of his own initiative but only what he saw the Father doing. And what did HE do? Heal sick? Resurrect dead?
But those who don't KNOW him... don't know this about the Most Holy One of Israel, JAH of Armies. Because of all the heinous LIES about Him in the OT... which the Jews used to scare their enemies... they think He's quick to anger, hateful, bloodthirsty. When the TRUTH is that He is SLOW to anger, MERCIFUL... and ABUNDANT in loving kindness!
And so they continue in their falsehood and confusion... from one spectrum (all bad people are going to burn in hell forever)... to the other (no one's gonna be destroyed 'cause their ain't no God no how...). They don't get it that neither of these scenarios are the TRUTH!
Ah, well... what can you say/do? Apparently, the will of our Lord is what I have "said/done" here.
Peace to you, girl!
Your servant, sister, and a slave of Christ,

AGuest, we already know that the bible is full of lies and that 'JAH of Armies' is a pacifist.
All Christians know that the word of god is no longer the bible but now refers to Jesus alone.
Thank you for reminding us of these 'new truths.'
Hey Glad, sometimes "truths," regardless of their age, can be "New Things Learned," Yes?
