grin grin I love you man!!!   smiley smiley

I loved your coup de grace attempt

You are right to a degree but not absolutely right

Too bad that kind of reasoning and inference is somewhat impaired

Though hurt does one physically feel the pain in ones soul?

Does one physically feel the burden on ones heart, literally?

Is regret, disappointment or bitterness exclusive only to the physical?
Fellis:
Thank you. But if the pain is only going to be psychological, then what is the point behind using fire to inflict it?

Why fire?

Why are thrown into fire to burn if they have no skin to feel?
@Fellis

Thank you but you are assuming this is about inflicting pain . . .

You are looking at the wrong sign post

Sure fire is consuming

yet this is all about the anguish and/or intense regret over getting it wrong that is not consumed by the fire

(i.e. the disappointment, annoyance, misery, sadness etc not consumed by hell)

huh huh hmmmm??
I truly do not understand what you posted. Do you mean that the fire consumes the body and then the person feels the grief and anguish which the fire was unable to consume? Thank you 4 explaining.
*oh. . .also, where in the Bible does it say that humans will be devoid of their organs and body in eternity/after death? Cos you said in an earlier post that after death the organs and body rot away and there is therefore no need for reproduction.

Thank you for your patience and follow up.

Forget about the body, the body's gone, it's kaput; destroyed when one dies . . .

Spirit! Can you burn a spirit? Fire consumes but can fire burn anguish, regret etc

Has the penny dropped now or more explanation is necessary?

On the matter of organs, reproduction etc . . .

Fellis dont you recall  "Dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return" - Theology 101 or Sunday School

Have you not read and/or heard that there are no male or female in heaven?

How does one distinguish a male from a female?

Is it not by $exual organs?

So by deduction one can safely infer if there are no male or female in heaven, there are no $exual or reproductive organs

Am i afraid of hell, hell no! too much rapping skills grin grin
One thing i want to be clear about is the concept of heaven. Definitely people will recognise each other in heaven and may reminisce on all the earthly stuff in this wonderful, gold-paved estate of everlasting bliss. What is blissful however for a woman who somehow loses her husband to hell, or a parent whose teenage son is roasting in hell? Three ways christians, pick 1.
a. There will be a widespread memory loss in heave as such no one will remember or recognise anybody.
b. Job's re-compensation method(God will provide another child/spouse/loved one).
c. The joy of the lord will fill their hearts.

Is it not pathetic that fear of pain is the utmost reason why someone must be a believer? Yeah, i said it. If you give me the gospel and i fling it, what do i risk? Eternal damnation. Fine.

Will hell be that bad of a place? When einstein and co go dey there, we'd better start working on some schematics for central cooling. Deepsight, jagunlabi, got any technical skills?
toba:
do we have VIP seats in hell?
That's the spirit my bro, be prepared. grin grin

This desert-dwelling civilizations are just too barbaric. Unfortunately, anything the spew na law or word of GOD.
I blame Emperor Constantine for all these nonsense.

"If god is good, there must be a hell." These are the kind of inane arguments for the existence of hell. No one has seen hell, no one knows anyone who has been to hell and back. If hell exists (which I do not believe) no one knows what will happen there.

I may be $tupid, but I really do not understand this post. Isn't this just someone trying to explain something that does not make sense. You die, you decay, period. So what body goes to heaven and hell? None. This fascination with an afterlife amuses me. Although it is claimed that god created all things, the only beings that appear to have an afterlife are humans -how very illogical.
Genesis 1:26 says god "created man in his image", are you now saying that this is not true? In your eagerness to try and explain the unexplainable, you do yourself no favours.

You guys should get an afterlife.

This is what some folks think their afterlife is going to be like, so lets listen to this afterlife conversation.

Gabriel came to the Lord and said:

"I have to talk to you. I have some Nigerians up here in Heaven who are causing some problems.  They are swinging on the Pearly Gates, my horn is gone missing, Maggi sauce and Ogbono soup are all over their robes; hamhocks, Isi-ewu, Cow-feet and Bokoto bones are all over the streets of Gold; some folks are walking around with one wing, they have been late taking their turn in keeping the stairway to heaven clean. There are beer bottles all over the clouds, some aren't even wearing their halos, saying it doesn't fit with their hairstyles."

The Lord said:

"I made them special, as I did you, my angel. Heaven is home to all my children. If you really want to know about problems, let's call the Devil."

The Devil answered the phone:

"Hello? What the . . . !, hold on one minute."

The Devil returned to the phone and said:

"Hello Lord, what can I do you for?"

The Lord replied:

"Tell me what kind of problems you are having down there."

The Devil said:

"Wait one minute,"

And put the Lord on hold.  After 5 minutes he returned to the phone, and said:

"Okay, I'm back. What was the question again?"

The Lord said:

"What kind of problems are you having down there?"

The Devil said:

"Man, I don't belieee . . . . hold on, Lord" .

This time the Devil was gone for 15 minutes.  The Devil returned and said:

"I'm sorry Lord, I can't talk right now.  These Nigerians put the fire out, and now they are trying to install air conditioning!  They even bribed my guys!"  shocked shocked shocked

even the bible said hell is the grave. i wonder why man can be so dumb.
Re: Are You Afraid Of Hell? Why? by OLAADEGBU(m): 4:42pm On Sep 30, 2011
Why was this man afraid, can you tell?

A man was driving to work when a lorry drove through a stop sign, hit his car broadside, and knocked him out. Passers-by pulled him from the wreck and revived him. He began a terrific struggle and had to be tranquillised by the paramedics.

Later, when he came to and was calm, they asked him why he struggled so much. He said:

"I remember the impact, then nothing. I woke up on a concrete slab in front of a huge, flashing 'Shell' sign. And somebody was standing in front of the S." shocked shocked shocked

Well according to a naija ''pastor'' 90% of nigerians will be going to hell.

It sure feels good to be among the minority! grin
