I Will Fight Against This LIE by Nobody: 12:52am On Dec 29, 2012
Just watched this video and it was so so wrong, I had to engage in a debate with some deceived brethren and explain to them the truth about HELL.

Over the holidays , I have spoken to people who were literally frightened by the mere thought that people go to hell when they die talk less of a future eternal hell fire.

This is just plain wrong, Jesus came with the gospel of hope, not the gospel of eternal torture.

In 2013 , I will fight against this LIE wherever I see it rear it's ugly head.

Hell is only a temporary abode for the wicked. The final destination of the wicked is LAKE OF FIRE.

Revelation 20:15
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Well Mr. Agbaje, I believe there is hell though I don't subscribe to people using it as a 'scare tactic'. If anyone wants to believe in God then the individual should do it for love rather than for the fear of hell.

Well Mr. Agbaje,

I don't know about others but I don't think my decision not to focus on hell is borne out of fear or shame. I really do not have anyone to fear and being ashamed is totally out of it.

I believe the question we should ask ourselves is: why did Jesus dwell more on other matters like Love rather than hell? Was it because he was afraid or ashamed to dwell on the teaching of hell?

Surely he talked about hell but he concentrated his efforts on showing people that God is love.

Thank you!

it'a obvious that the OP needs his head examined. You claimed you were going to fight against the notion of hell, implying that the notion of hell fire was wrong, upon being challenged, you changed yur stance to saying christians should not use scare tactics - your brain obviously needs rewiring.

Good afternoon sir,

I guess in a bid to proven your point you got some information muddled up.

I posted about the use of 'scare tactics' by anyone not just Christians though it would be safe to assume this, while the OP actually has not retracted his stance on hell.

Thank you!

very Christian of you to respond the way you did.

My stance is as solid as a rock, there is only one HELL and that is after the final judgement, this HELL is for the final and utter destruction of sinners, nothing more.

Of course the gospel is good news , and the good news should,be presented. Talking about hell is part of the good news . Theres deliverance from hell through christ. Why should we be afraid to talk about hell. Jesus talked about hell

Matthew 10:28
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.


. If its in the bible ,it should be taught. It doesn't take away the place of Gods love.

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.


We should have balance. We ought to teach the whole counsel of God

Hell is mostly translated as hades in the New Testament and Sheol in the Old. It is in reference to the grave, man's final place of abode after death and before the resurrection.

Then there is the lake of fire, which is the end of all evil before the transition to a new heaven and new earth when death the final enemy of man would have been destroyed in the lake of fire as depicted quite clearly in Revelation 20.

The good news is to repent and believe in Jesus to receive eternal life and become a part of God's kingdom , which though we cannot see it now as it is invisible will shortly be manifested materially in the form of the new heaven and new earth.

The wages that one would earn or the price that one would pay for the rejection of this good news is eternal death which means exactly what it says death , the cessation of existence.

Anything else is adding to the word of GOD and propagating the doctrines of the Harlot Catholic church, but then no surprise here , for most denominations are daughters of the Harlot catholic church and contain much of her worship and doctrinal methods.

The King James Bible erroneously applies the universal term “Hell” where it shouldn’t. The 1995 NASB, one of the more accurate modern day English translations written from Nestle and Aland’s compilation of Greek manuscripts (the oldest and most reliable), properly distinguishes between Sheol, Hades, Gehenna, and Tartarus—very different abodes, none of which are a literal lake of fire.

Nowhere in the Old Testament does Yahweh even hint at a literal “Fiery Hell,” as the abode of the unbelieving deceased, NO WHERE! Don’t you think God would have warned Abraham, Moses and all the patriarchs of the Old Testament of such a horrifying destiny if they were to break any part of the law? Something along the lines of “If you don’t obey my commandments, I’m going to bake and barbecue you in a brick oven for all of eternity—that’s right, trillions and trillions of years, and then more trillions and trillions of years if you don’t adhere to all of my laws throughout your entire lives!” Why didn’t God warn them of such a horrible place? Because there is no such place mentioned in the Bible, Old or New Testament!

It’s only in the sick, demented and twisted mind of man where such a place was created, i.e., money-grubbing, fear-mongering, power-hungry Christian expositors and television celebrities that cast themselves as “Godly Men” in the know. There is absolutely no biblical support for a literal “Lake of Fire” where God will burn the majority of mankind for all of eternity.

How many mothers are sitting in the pews of the mammoth 501c3 corporations that call themselves “church” every Sunday morning listening to a completely distorted, demented, and fabricated lie about a Christian God that hates his created children so much, he burns and tortures them for trillions and trillions of millennia .


How many widows who are grieving the loss of a spouse or child must bear the burden of believing their loved one is burning in a furnace of fire because they just didn’t get around to “accepting Christ” before they unexpectedly died? Too many!

How in the hell could mothers, or any other professing believers who have lost loved ones that may not have been “Christianized” prior to their death ever live in peace for the rest of their lives, falsely believing that their loved ones are being cooked by a vengeful and jealous God? They can’t!

Some of the very celebrity blow-hards that berate others for disseminating false and dangerous doctrine are guilty of it themselves. Discerning fable from fiction can be difficult, especially when some of these blow-hard fire and brimstone preachers can be so dead right on other doctrinal issues. But I’ll be damned if I’m going to idly sit by and let these power-hungry, fear mongers continue to perpetrate what can only be described as the most vile lie ever bestowed upon innocent and naive believers—a God that burns people in a “Hell-Fire” for all of eternity.

Don’t buy the lie of an evil God anymore—not if you’re a true believer. I’m calling these heretics out, and that’s a complimentary term. Anybody that preaches unbelieving deceased loved ones will be cooked in a never-ending flaming fire to an innocent, naive, and under educated ecclesia should be held in contempt of Christ. To perpetrate such an evil, fallacious, and demented doctrine is on par with the evil acts of terrorists. Only unlike terrorists, these evil men mentally torture innocent believers through fear and intimidation for their entire lifetimes.

100% concur. Hell, the place is very real; the Bible is very clear on that.

Why would a loving God send people (i.e those of disobedience) to a place of unspeakable, horrendous EVERLASTING torture? Bible makes it very clear it was it never God's intention for His children to go there. It was meant for satan and his demons.


I think also the way its being preached doesn't help matters. You see some preacher focusing so much on hell rather than God. I believe it presnets a very distorted picture of God.

1. so which HELL is it , is it the one people go to when they die or is it the lake of fire where sinners go to at the end of this age ?

2. and if a HELL exists today , how come the devil and his demons for whom the place was prepared and not yet there ?

Just because something exists in church tradition does not make it true , it is tool of fear mongering to hold on to church members , started by the catholic church and perfected by her denominational daughters.

Re: I Will Fight Against This LIE by Ymodulus: 5:11pm On Dec 29, 2012
The most funniest of all is that jesus christ went to hell. i ask myself the question if jesus went to hell why then say hell is a place of torment for the wicked?

Acts 2:31

He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left (kataleipo) in hell (hades), neither his flesh did see corruption. (KJV translation)


The word kataleipo means...

1) to leave behind

a) to depart from, leave

1) to be left

b) to bid (one) to remain

c) to forsake, leave to one's self a person or thing by ceasing to care for it, to abandon, leave in the lurch

1) to be abandoned, forsaken

d) to cause to be left over, to reserve, to leave remaining

e) like our "leave behind", it is used of one who on being called away cannot take another with him

1) especially of the dying (to leave behind)

f) like our "leave", leave alone, disregard

1) of those who sail past a place without stopping

Source: http://www.blueletterbible.org/tmp_dir/words/2/1147370736-9394.html



So basically this word means to be "left over" somewhere. So that means that the thing being left over was already there.



The word hades means...

1) name Hades or Pluto, the god of the lower regions

2) Orcus, the nether world, the realm of the dead

3) later use of this word: the grave, death, hell

++++


In Biblical Greek it is associated with Orcus, the infernal regions, a dark and dismal place in the very depths of the earth, the common receptacle of disembodied spirits. Usually Hades is just the abode of the wicked, Lu. 16:23, Rev. 20:13,14; a very uncomfortable place.

Source: http://www.blueletterbible.org/tmp_dir/words/8/1147369484-2683.html



Basically what the verse is saying is that Jesus' soul was not left over or remained in hell. However, this shows and proves that his soul was indeed there at a point in time. Bible commentator Matthew Henry says...



Thou wilt not leave my soul in hell’’ (in hades, in the invisible state, so hades properly signifies); "but, though thou suffer it for a time to remove thither, and to remain there, yet thou wilt remand it; thou wilt not leave it there, as thou dost the souls of other men.’’ (Matthew Henry Complete Commentary on the Whole Bible, Source)



So basically Jesus' soul was in hell for a period of time but did not remain there just as it would be for other men (the sinners I am assuming).


very funny

Bidam: .so oga frosbel..pls expLIAN JUDE 1;6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

are we talking about angels or humans

Let's talk about humans first, we will come to that verse in a minute grin

Oh, btw the chief of all fallen angels is actually roaming the earth , going to and fro with his demons, any reason why they are not yet in torment.

Let's hear what a demon had to say when he saw Jesus ;

"And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?" - Matthew 8:29

The demons knew that there was a set time for their torment and eventual destruction, hence the question "art thou come hither to torment us before the time ? "

This is enough evidence to show that demons are not yet in hell which is a future event and which is a place prepared for them and their master SATAN.

So back to my question, why are humans now in this fiery place of torment created for the devil and his angels but those for whom it was prepared are free to roam about tormenting mankind ?
