MrMontella:

@the bolded is a big fat lie...

the serial killer and his killings,,the prostitute and her prostitution,,the armed robber and his robberby..
These three things stated above each have their undeniable evidences when they occur
.

And the millions of people who have passed out of life and back and experienced the horrors of hell are not undeniable evidences for themselves and a confirmation of what we are preaching? You are deceiving yourself. Moreover its not only christians that have experienced this. It includes people of various religious and cultural backgrounds who at the end of the day give their lives to Christ. You turn blind eyes to such testimonies because you want to keep deceiving yourself that hell is not real.

MrMontella:


Any rational human will see that an Eternal punishment for finite sins is a direct contradiction of an all loving and all merciful god..

eternal torment again..
But he is still all loving..

.

O yeah kindly show me where God told you in the bible that he is an all loving God and for that reason he cannot hate, he cannot be angry and he cannot punish people for their sins. You just created what you think you can use as an excuse but you are deceiving yourself.
If he did not state these things in the bible then you would ve scored a point by telling us that he is doing what he is not known to do in the bible.

MrMontella:



here the ideology behind the christian god is crushed by the christians themselves..
The bible claims he is all loving yet he can hate..
An all knowing god cannot have new emotions...like anger,,plain wickedness,,,
.

Where did the bible claim all loving and says that it means he cant be angry or punish?
All knowing doesnt mean that if he has forseen that you will sin he wouldnt be angry when you commit the sin. He has said he hates sin and frowns at it and he cannot change because of you. You dont want to change for God but you want him to change for you. How silly you reason. A creator changing for his creature. He is all knowing but there is still need for him to show us that he is angry when we sin. Or you want him to keep silence to sin because he is all knowing so that you will start feeling that he is very cool with us sinning?

MrMontella:



Any rational human will see that an Eternal punishment for finite sins is a direct contradiction of an all loving and all merciful god..


And what stops you from rejecting the finite sin so as to escape the infinite consequences if not for your undying love for the infinite sin? If humans like you are rejecting sin why not you? stop deceiving yourself bro you have no excuse.

OP... the fact that you are over coming Allah's hell does not mean it does not exist. Allah will still burn u blasphemy you spew every day the God has a son.



in my own opinion the two people that deserve hell are Yahweh and Allah.


The crap you people always present to defend yourself but we christians cant fall for your foolishness. When muslims are talking about God they are talking about the supreme being. Same goes for christians. The hell that both religions refer to is the one created by the supreme being. There is only one supreme God what differs is our views/approach. Moreover, the Koran acknowledges Moses, Abraham, Jesus and some other bible personalities as prophets of God. Our bible does not recognize their Muhammed at all talk more of calling him prophet of God. Now use your tongue and count your teeth if you are wise.

Christians are confuse set of people, some will tell you its spirit not soul , and if u say soul , where will the spirit go then ? care to clarify


the bomb is that according to their Bible , Matthew 10:28 says Body and soul go to Hell , but have you ever heard them preaching this ? its so clear that the verse is a LIE, the body doesn't go to any hell


Yes the body and the soul will be tormented in the lake of fire forever and ever after the final judgment as recorded in Revelations. Thats why the second ressurection will take place which is for sinners who are dead to be judged and cast into the lake of fire.
The talk about spirit/soul being tormented in hell is concerning sinners that are dead. The one of both body and soul is at the final judgment. Nobody is begging you to believe but whether you like it or not you will face it when the time comes if you dont repent. I dont paint words for people on this matter.

Aren't you someone's loved one now? Are you considering the fact that you burning in hell will hurt your other loved ones?
Na wa for people and their reasoning.
Which ever way, if you reject Christ, when you die, you die without the spirit that shd enter into heaven, so you'll remain outside and that outside is hellfire.
Ifeness, like the OP said, you can't help it. You'll go there if you don't repent.

So you are trying to convince me that santa is real too? Too bad,an adult like yourself thinks hell is real. I cannot help you.

I have read several posts by atheists saying how they overcame the fear of hell fire and by so doing they conclude that no such thing as hell fire exists. Obviously they pick courage to make this claim on the background that the fear of hell fire is no more in them. Some christian organizations on their own took their message to a different level by agreeing that there is a lake of fire but that it will not burn eternally. Some others will tell you that God is so loving that he can burn people forever.

To the atheists, i want to let you know that overcoming the fear of something doesnt make that thing good or non existent.For example- A serial killer has overcome the fear of killing but that doesnt make killing good(anyway atheism preaches that any thing is good if we say its good). A prostitute has overcome the fear/shame of prostitution but that doesnt make it good. A thief/armed robber has overcome the fear of armed robbery but it is still bad. Overcoming the fear of these things does not mean that those who engage in them have escaped the consequences.
In the light of the above, it is obvious that to overcome the fear of hell fire does not mean that there is no more hell fire or that you wont end up there at last if you dont repent.You are only giving yourself a false hope which of course is temporary.

To the christians who preach the false message of no eternal torment, you are also giving yourself a false hope.You people are trying to paint a picture that will not be so scary to the unbelievers but the bible clearly stated it in various places that its an eternal punishment. Giving yourself false hope doesnt solve anything. God cannot raise billions of people up from the grave on the last day just for the purpose of judging and burning them off. Some of them died thousands upon thousands of years ago. Some died in a way that is more horrible way than just being burnt off by fire. If it was about wiping them out then they are already dead and gone so no point raising them up again. They are being raised up to come and face the eternal torment. It may sound painful and wicked to the unbelievers but thats the truth. Nobody is stopping anybody from being a believer.
For those who claim that a loving God cannot do that, pls remember that it is clearly written in the bible that God can love. He can hate. He is a God of vengeance. He is a consuming fire etc. The bible bears records of his acts that reflects these attributes so stop giving out false image of a loving God that cannot punish sinners.
Questions are welcome at this point.

when Jehova was talking all that he was talking to the children of Israel. He never mentioned Africa, europ or Americ. Do have any evidence of Jehava relating to African during the time of Abraham. What is our business with another countrys religion?

What do u mean by "hypocritical"? undecided
To us, they're dead(gone or no longer in existence), not tormented in Hell, for what they did in their short life.
What do u also mean by "why didn't you kill yourself", don't u have emotions?, or it has been covered by Heaven and Hell? undecided

Just show me where Jesus said it will be when they die.
If it is about natural death then Jesus wouldnt be talking about sinners being destroyed in hell since both the righteous and the sinners die the natural death.

You are just trying to confuse things but its not me that you can do that to. I was trying to differentiate to you where body and soul comes into play.
The story of Lazarus and the rich man is a clear case of the dead sinner being tormented. That is the soul/spirit. The body remains in the grave and decompose to be made alive at the second resurrection for judgment and eternal torment. If you like pretend as if you dont understand the difference i am drawing. My points are clear.
They are tormented in hell fire. The reach man in hell said he is in torment. Jesus said it is a place where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. At another point he described it as a place of eternal torment.Which destruction is worse than eternal torment anyway?

Oh so in your belief a spirit is not supposed to have a tongue. How come the angels speak? They are spirits. God is a spirit, how come he speaks? Satan is a spirit how come he talks and will be tormented with his angels at last in the lake of fire? The demons that Jesus cast out in one the mad men he encountered screamed and asked Jesus why he has come to torment them. But demons are spirits. How come that some people that Jesus cast out demons from them when the demons were leaving they tore the persons garment and pushed him down. But they are spirits.

And may be you can explain to me how a spirit (God, angels etc.) can talk well without tongue.
