Maximus69: Twisting bible verses as usual. Paul is talking about judgment not teaching. There is nothing relating to what you wrote here with what Paul said. |

Maximus69: According To The Truth They Have Received Each will be judged according to the information they have received. Jesus said. Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty deeds done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I tell you, on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty deeds done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you that on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom than for you (Matthew 11:21-24 ). The Scriptural truth is that to whom much has been given, much will be required. But the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. And from everyone who has been given much shall much be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more ( Luke 12:48 ). 2. Judgment Will Be Fair We must note that judgment will be fair. The psalmist wrote. They will sing before the LORD, for He comes, He comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His truth ( Psalm 96:13 ). The Apostle Paul also emphasized this truth. Because He has fixed a day on which He will have the world judged in righteousness by a man whom He has appointed, and of this He has given assurance to all by raising Him from the dead ( Acts 17:31 ). Jeremiah quoted God as saying. I the LORD search the heart and examine the mind, to reward a person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve (Jeremiah 17:10 ). 3. According To One's Works The Bible says that each of us will be judged according to our works. Paul wrote. For He will repay according to each one's deeds: but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality. (Romans 2:6 , 10 , 11 ). In the Book of Revelation we read. I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am He who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds (Revelation 2:23 ). Lest we might think that God will weigh our good deeds against our bad deeds, He has told us what the work of God consists. Then they said to Him [Jesus], "What must we do to perform the works of God?" Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent" (John 6:28 , 29 ) . The work of God is to believe in Him whom He has sent - Jesus Christ. 4. According To God's |

Maximus69: There is no room for probation. that is the word of Jesus. People will be judged by the light or grace they have been given. 1. According To The Truth They Have Received Each will be judged according to the information they have received. Jesus said. Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty deeds done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I tell you, on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty deeds done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you that on the day of judgment it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom than for you (Matthew 11:21-24 ). The Scriptural truth is that to whom much has been given, much will be required. But the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. And from everyone who has been given much shall much be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more ( Luke 12:48 ). From above we can see that Sodom and Gomarrah are not going to receive any probation. |

Maximus69: During the 1000yrs of Christ rule the Bible says no one will teach another to know God, for everyone will know God. I wonder were and when you guys will teacher your own. Hebrews 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. |

TATIME: He is a TEACHER who will TEACH his folks what's in the Bible but the one foretold to be a WONDERFUL TEACHER never came to TEACH but to die! Walahi Talahi i thank God for the opportunity Seun gave me to hear the views of this misinformed churchgoers on Nairaland, how can someone know that they're this stupid and full of fallacies? No wonder they can't go from house to house to preach and teach like Jehovah's Witnesses, is this crap worth changing the hearts of people to make any real change? Jesus is NOT a teacher but the same Jesus said "what i teach is not mine" John 7:16 Please i'm out of here! |

Maximus69: Number 1 purpose of Christ coming to Earth was to die for humanity and not to teach. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life 2 Corinthians 5:21 King James Version (KJV) For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Romans 5:10. 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Hebrews 9:27 27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, You are yet to show me were it is written that Jesus came to Earth to teach. Philippians 3:20-21 20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. |

Image123: What I meant is that,there is no were i wrote that knowing what is rewarded is a criteria for entering Heaven. We are instructed to proof God's word to diligently search at the truth in God's word. You failing to know or search out the truth about God's word is a great of fence before God. 2 Timothy 2:15. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Acts 17:11. 11 Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; John 5:39 39 You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, John 17:17. 17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. Revelation 1:2. 2 who testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 2 Timothy 3:15-17. 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Do you think to enter Heaven requires you to sit around all day without you putting effort to discover and establish the truth of God's word? |

Image123: Really? Hosea 4:6 King James Version (KJV) My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hebrews 5:12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. Hebrews 5:13 For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. Peter-1 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: Corinthians-1 3:2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able. |

blueAgent: Your writing na wa. All these don't tell us that knowing the itinerary of souls and spirits is what takes us to Heaven. I can also quote 20 verses na. You don't need to work to discover and establish the soul and spirit routes to "make" Heaven. Period. |

Image123: Am not writing to please Man but God. 2 Timothy 2:15. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. John 8:32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. You can see it is the truth you know that sets you free. Ignorance can never save you or help you. |

blueAgent:You made a long argument but arrived at a flawed conclusion. From your writeup 1. At death, the body goes to the earth while the spirit of man goes to God. Doesn't the reverse take place at resurrection? If this is the case, your conclusion should be that an ungodly man's union of body and spirit is thrown (alive) into the lake of fire. 2. You defined the soul to mean three things: * A living person or animal * Life force or life of a person * Faculty or reasoning or intellect of a person,mind,thoughts At resurrection, are these three (definition of the soul) absent or inapplicable to the resurrected person? If these are present, doesn't it imply that the union of the body and soul of the ungodly man is thrown into the lake of fire? Your conclusion contradicts your argument |

blueAgent: Clearly stated from the beginning but you seemed very disturbed at it. The important questions like David asked should be "Who"?, "How?" What is the gain of knowing what if you don't know how? Who goes to heaven or hell, How can i go to Heaven or hell. Those are more pertinent than spending pages on unverified information. |

Image123: You are only talking from your little confused mind. If it was not important why did God inform or inspire Paul to write it in the Bible? Right now in Christaindom about 85% of Christians or more believe the soul is immortal and will be sent to Heaven or Hell. There are several false doctrines and consequences that this false teachings and doctrine has created. If you knew better you would have shown me how my article contradicts God's word. If what I wrote is false, then prove me wrong but if it is right than let it be. There are millions who are dieing to know the truth about God's word and purpose for humanity. Rather than draw people away from God this thread reveal the true and justice nature of God and his word. It will draw and increase people's faith. If you are not willingly to humble yourself and learn about God's true word than am sorry Heaven is light years far from you. |
Re: What Goes To Heaven Or Hell, Is It Body,soul Or Spirit. by blueAgent(m): 12:51pm On Mar 10, 2020 |
Image123: Those verses I quoted instructs Christians to read, understand and establish the truth about God's word. An that is exactly what I have done with this thread. James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Any one who refuses to know or establish the truth about God's word has committed a sin. |
Re: What Goes To Heaven Or Hell, Is It Body,soul Or Spirit. by blueAgent(m): 12:56pm On Mar 10, 2020 |
shadeyinka: You really need to pray for understanding. The word Soul can refer to any 3 of the things I mentioned. At resurrection the the spirit which is the life force from God enters the body and it comes to live thus becoming a living Soul. just as it was in the beginning of creation of man. |

Image123: All this verses were written by men who are more inspired and annonited than you and they are all speaking on the resurrection and restoration of their bodies. Your dead shall live; together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing you who dwell in dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead ( Isaiah 26:19 ). Hosea said. I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from the earth. O Death, I will be your plagues! O Grave, I will be your destruction ( Hosea 13:14 ). But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, 'Men and brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!' And when he had said this a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the assembly was divided. For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection - and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both ( Acts 23:6-8 ). Paul also said. And I have the same hope in God as these men, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked ( Acts 24:15 ). For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will ( John 5:21 ). He also said. Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice and will come out - those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation ( John 5:29 ). And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I should lose nothing of all that He has given Me, but raise it up on the last day ( John 6:39 ). |
Re: What Goes To Heaven Or Hell, Is It Body,soul Or Spirit. by blueAgent(m): 1:49pm On Mar 10, 2020 |
Image123: Even during the time of Paul there were people who did not believe in resurrection or how it will be possible. So also we have people today who do not understand the resurrection, its purpose and importance. 1 Corinthians 15:35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? 15:36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: 15:37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: 15:38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body. If God found it worthy to inspire Paul and others to write and teach on the importance of the resurrection, body and reward, then who are you to question its importance to ones salvation. |

Re: What Goes To Heaven Or Hell, Is It Body,soul Or Spirit. by shadeyinka(m): 4:37pm On Mar 10, 2020 |
blueAgent:You surely do not understand my argument. You said "Only the body goes into the Lake of Fire!" My argument is that the Body, Soul and Spirit of Man goes into the lake of fire. Let me break it down for you starting from the definition of your soul which you say could mean three things: * A living person or animal * Life force or life of a person * Faculty or reasoning or intellect of a person,mind,thoughts At Resurrection, would 1. The person be living? 2. Would the person have Life force or life? 3. Would the person have the faculty of reasoning, or intellect, mind or thoughts? If for each of the three questions above, your answer is YES, then it means that the person being cast into hell has a soul (by your definition). You believe that the spirit of man returns to God at Death. Now, at resurrection, what happens to this spirit? Does this spirit return back to the body? If the spirit returns back to man, doesn't it imply that the man is cast alive into the lake of fire with his spirit inside his body? So you see why your argument is flawed |
