I don't have the intention to experience that sir... I pray for God's grace also..

I believe God's grace is sufficient for all of us.

Yes sir... His grace is sufficient for us all... God bless you sir...

Amen! Jesus warns us to repent, watch and pray till He comes. Maranatha!

That is another way of saying:

The servant who knows the master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows.

48 But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.
Luke 12:47,48

I believe though that the servant who ,assuming ignorance is bliss, shuns every opportunity to know will be treated just like the one who knew.

God bless you. Those verses certainly teach that there are degrees of punishment in hell where the intensity of suffering is inflicted in accordance with the degree of sinfulness in relation to the degree of the light received or truth known.

I wanted to say the same then I remembered where Jesus talked about it going to be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah than for a certain set of people that didn't accept him.

Good observation.

Chai TRUE repentance no be Bread n Butter at all at all

Godly sorrow is the key that leads us to true repentance.

ESV

" Truly, I say to you, it will be more bearable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town. "
- Matthew 10:15

Jesus talks about the day of judgement which has not even arrived NOT hotness of a silly hell . wake up !

The statement in that verse is a clear indication that there is a principle of degrees of punishment in hell which coincidentally corresponds to the degree of reward in heaven. If you don't believe in the reality of heaven or hell you will be shocked when reality sets in.

keep speculating okay! even God did not send Adam to hell .

How did you know?

OLAADEGBU:

How did you know?

from the Bible - Gen 3:19

from the Bible - Gen 3:19

That verse only talks about what happens to his physical body - the second law of thermodynamics. It does not address what happens to Adam's spirit body.

Its Olaadegbu that introduce another lie that gen 3:19 only Means Adams body.

NA WA O!

Read your Bible to have the big picture.

"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7).

Definitely, no one knows the realm outside this world or what is going to happen after death,only God knows not us, so don't judge.

stop telling lies, this man .. simple truth, Adam is dust and to dust Adam will return - Gen 3:19

"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7).

this verse proves Gen 3:19 is correct, the dust ( Adam ) shall return to earth as it was.

the spirit is the breath of life in his nostrils not a conscious being.

abeg, following ur crazy dogma it mean everyone will go to heaven since all spirits whether good or bad will return to God ?

truth is light ... set urself free from the bondage of Babylon

theEYe21:

Only God knows and He has revealed to us in His record. It's up to you to search it out Gold is not found on the surface of the earth.

"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7).

It is true that Adam's body returned to the dust from which it was formed but the verse above also says that the spirit of the person who dies does not actually die even though the molecules of the body disintegrates back to their basic elements the spirit actually lives on. The spirit was sent from God into Adam's body in the first place, and therefore is still under God's control when the body dies. Your decision determines your destiny.

Waow!!!!

So you are all this intelligent?

oh you are really intelligent, but let's wait to see if you will be this intelligent on your death bed. I wish we could met after your death experience, so you will tell me what you witnessed.

Sorry bro, it is well!

If you wish to meet him, then there's no problem. Lemme just fast and pray for you that you end up where he ends up, Lobatan. Then both of you can have fellowship forever in the same place.

So what are you trying to say?
It doesn't mean God judges dead ones, na that's not what that portion is saying. Nobody is been judge while dead, besides the Bible talks about the judgement day as something that is yet to come.
And dead ones will be resurrected and judged according to their deeds while they lived. So God is not judging spirits of dead ones or keeping them.
Yes after (death) judgement follows in the sense that once we die we can't do anything or simply put it's impossible to right any wrong we committed while alive, the next thing that awiats us is judgement!

Here you see Adam's spirit and soul imparted to him directly by God. Read your Bibles.

It's the body that sleeps, the spirit and soul of man lives on.

Bro . Soul = spirit + body . So it's only the spirit that lives on

Did you read the part where the article said that both the spirit and the soul are connected but still separate?

This article throws more light on the subject.
