When In The Bible Was Hell Fire Created? by bolaino(m): 12:38pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
I was reading muskeeto's thread about robert ingersoll's reasons for being an atheist, and then he mentioned something that struck me, it was about how in the old testament the christian God metted out punishments for sin instantaneously, but how in the new testament he changed, and he started giving grace to sinners to repent and that the ones who failed to repent will be cast into the lake of fire, What's baffling to me is that in the old testament, there was no hell fire or even any mention of it, only hades or sheoul was mentioned and those words mean grave and underworld respectively, so if there was no hell fire then when was it created? Why was it created? What is the purpose for it? And what led to the christian God conceiving a place of unending torment? I leave this to the house. |

bolaino: I was reading muskeeto's thread about robert ingersoll's reasons for being an atheist, and then he mentioned something that struck me, it was about how in the old testament the christian God metted out punishments for sin instantaneously, but how in the new testament he changed, and he started giving grace to sinners to repent and that the ones who failed to repent will be cast into the lake of fire, The old testament made mention of hell. Prov. 15:24 states "The way of life is above to the wise,that he may depart from hell beneath." When you substitute hell for grave ,you will know ,for sure, that it is "hell" being refered to in that passage. Isiah 5:14 - There4 hell hath enlarged herself,and opened her mouth without measure :and their glory.......shall descend into it." Grave cannot be said to have been enlarged, since it is d same measurement for everyone. Those 2 passages tells us that hell is mentioned in the old testament. The reason God created hell was for Satan and the falling angels. God will also take " the unbelievers,the whoremongers,& sorcerers,d idolaters and all liars to hell for failing to repent from their wickedness. Please, repent b4 it is too late and stop all these vain babblings which cannot change anything.Repent and escape for your life. |

enilove:I chose to disagree my dear, the hell mentioned specifically in those passages was not a lake of fire but rather the jewish sheoul which is grave, but due to translatory errors by d composers of the english bible they substituted the word sheoul for grave instead, and it was a deliberate ploy to mislead many christians into believing sheoul to be a lake of fire, what's even the correlation between sheoul and lake of fire sef? 1 Like |

bolaino: that's a good question, and that brings up another question, is hell fire a physical place or a spiritual place? that is if it exists, I don't know but I do not think it's physical. If we dig up the dead from the grave....no signs of fire or burning. They are turning to dust. Spiritual, I still don't know. If a "spirit" can walk through a wall (non physical) then how can a million tons of steal crush him/her (the spirit)? Imagine your neighbor saying "yeah man, I'm going to burn the air with this fire..." You know right there, that man has lost his mind! Maybe someone can explain.... Give thanks. 1 Like |
