Jozzy4:You argue like a dummy! The question was: Can you find a single new testament verse that calls or describes hell as the grave? I even used the word "describe" so that you don't need to find exact Quotes Why didn't you read my response or answer the question! |
Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by Jozzy4: 10:54am On Jun 25, 2019 |
shadeyinka: Chai ! So so silly You and aLBHAGDADI keep saying and asking show us a reference in the NT of Hell as Grave, didn't you ? To answer your question. I said if Sheol Is Grave , What is the Greek equivalent of Sheol ? After telling us, we will see if it appear or not. U are the dummy, can u see ? 1 Like |

shadeyinka: Hades u said is not grave and any translation that call it grave is fake, Do u still maintain this stand? If you do why will a Greek Bible render Sheol with Hades as equivalent ? |

Barristter07: Answer my question first.... If you don't answer it forget about my reply. Hypocrite! It trashes you as a liar, U dubious person! Olodo.... We're talking about Matthew 10 & Luke 12 even specifically on Luke when you asked that question but look at your lying mouth spew nonsense here Let the next verse reply you better: Lying master, this is Matthew 5, how does Matthew 5 next to Matthew 10 If not because you've been taught to lie. And Jesus statement here is about having half part of your body to make heaven is better than the whole body INTACT without heaven before you enter grave. This is different from where Jesus distinguished openly BTW the BODY and SOUL by saying 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" Luke 12:5 "But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him." |
Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by shadeyinka(m): 12:12pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
Jozzy4:The correct thing is to look at ALL the several shades of meaning of Hades and see if it translates into the word GRAVE! Languages do not always have equivalent translations Example: IN ENGLISH Fire: could mean 1. Flame 2. Fire as in shooting from a Gun (fired a Gun) 3. Fire as in Sack from employment IN YORUBA Ina: could mean 1. Flame 2. Trouble (Ina ma o Loni) You are in trouble today 3. Lice (an insect) The question really is: Translate Hades into every shade of its meaning and it wouldn't mean Grave. You desperately want Hades to mean Grave but sorry it doesn't. |

shadeyinka:https://www.bibletools.org Hades "(verse 23) is the Greek word for "grave." The King James Version generically translates hades into "hell," as it also does the Greek words tartarus (the present condition of darkness and restraint of the fallen angels or demons) and gehenna (a place at the bottom of a high ledge at the south end of Jerusalem where garbage and dead bodies were dumped and burned). Other Bible translations correctly distinguish the different meaning in these words." $$$ ** https://biblehub.com/greek/86.htm ****## Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 86: Ἅιδης 1. a proper name, Hades, Pluto, the god of the lower regions; so in Homer always. 2. an appellative, Orcus, the nether world, the realm of the dead (cf: Theocritus, idyll. 2,159 schol. τήν τοῦ ᾅδου κρούει πύλην . τουτ' ἔστιν ἀποθανεῖται .

Janosky: Janosky:Grave or Tomb in Greek is μνῆμα (mnema) OR μνημείου (mnēmeiou) Hell on the other hand is tartarus or gehenna or Hades. Is there one place in the new testament where the word μνῆμa OR μνημείου Greek words for Grave or Tomb described or as HELL or used to mean HELL? Can you see how you have been fed a strong dose of deception? |

Janosky:Even after digging up so much Greek, you couldn't find the word translated as Grave or Tomb? You are in soup because you've been obviously scammed! Everyone know that Sheol can mean several different things so that in the old testament English translations we can differ over the proper context of usage of words. Unfortunately for you, the Greek is too explicit that you can't lie that Hell is the Grave. Jesus spoke more than anyone else in the Scriptures of Hell. What if you've been wrong? |
Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by alBHAGDADI: 5:37pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
Jozzy4: This question actually shows why the gospel preached by your organization is false and a work based salvation gospel. You want to know if Abraham and the Old Testament saints went to heaven without the coming, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. Your believe is that one has to believe in Jesus before he or she can make heaven. That means those who died before Jesus came to earth cant make heaven or will have to wait for the resurrection. You are funny. Do you think salvation started after Jesus Christ came to earth? Mankind has been getting saved from Abel and Abraham's days. Before I explain that, let me first ensure you understand something. Hope you know the word FAITH mean BELIEVE. Now, how do we make Heaven or have everlasting life? It is by faith/believe in Jesus who is God. John 3:16 (KJV) 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. Did Abraham believe God? Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Did Abel have faith/believe in God? Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. The bolded part above shows that Abel still speaks today despite being dead. That debunks your soul sleep false doctrine and shows that he is alive in heaven. Below is Paul saying we get saved through faith in God just as Abel, Abraham and the old testament saints did. Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. All the prophets before the coming of Jesus Christ believed in him and also witnessed about him. Isaiah, David, Moses, Daniel, John the Baptist etc all preached about Jesus which shows they believed in him. Acts 10:43 43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. Now, juxtapose what the prophets preached about with the verse below. John 3:16 (KJV) 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. Clearly, their believe gave them everlasting life which is why they are in heaven. But according to you, they are totally dead and nowhere because you don't believe anyone is in heaven. That means you have called Jesus a liar. Remember he said he will give all those who believe in him everlasting life. John 10:28 (KJV) 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. The Bible verse below is telling we believers that we have that eternal life now. This means we won't wait till resurrection till we get it. We have it already that is why we go straight to heaven where fellow believers like Abel and Abraham are. 1 John 5:13 (KJV) 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. If we have to go unconscious for a while before getting that eternal life on ressurection day, then the above verse lied when it said we already have it. Have you been schooled today or the robotic programming of JW couldn't allow you understand my post? |
Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by Dafemich(m): 5:44pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
alBHAGDADI:Sorry, you got John 3:16 wrong. It says anyone that believe in Jesus. It not just believing but believing in Jesus. And i dont believe that people have been save before the Lord Jesus Christ came. What you have said is Jesus after death went to the death and preach to them. That was what he did. After his death, he went to the death and preach to them also. |

Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by Dafemich(m): 6:07pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
alBHAGDADI:The thing is that, God gave his son and any body that believe in his son is saved. God is a spirit ( John 4:24). It can still argued that we can't believe in a spirit. But with the son that came to this world and lived as a human being, no body have an excuse for not believing him. |

Jozzy4: Don't be querulous. You can ask Jesus, His apostles and believers what they had to say about eternal death (Hell). "I am He that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death"(Revelation 1:18) The Evidence Bible. There are three words translated "hell" in Scripture: Gehenna (Greek): The place of punishment (Matthew 5:22,29; 10:28; and James 3:6) Hades (Greek): The abode of the dead (Matthew 11:23; 16:18, Luke 16:23; Acts 2:27) Sheol (Hebrew): The grave (Psalm 9:17; 16:10) There are those who accept that hell is a place of punishment, but believe that the punishment is to be annihilated—to cease conscious existence. They can't conceive that the punishment of the wicked will be conscious and eternal. If they are correct, then a man like Adolph Hitler, who was responsible for the deaths of millions, is being "punished" merely with eternal sleep. His fate is simply to return to the non-existent state he was in before he was born, where he doesn't even know that he is being punished. However, Scripture paints a different story. The rich man who found himself in hell (Luke 16:19–31) was conscious. He was able to feel pain, to thirst, and to experience remorse. He wasn't asleep in the grave; he was in a place of "torment." If hell is a place of knowing nothing or a reference to the grave into which we go at death, Jesus' statements about hell make no sense. He said that if your hand, foot, or eye causes you to sin, it would be better to remove it than to: "go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched"(Mark 9:43–48). The Bible refers to the fate of the unsaved with such fearful words as the following: "Shame and everlasting contempt"(Daniel 12:2) "Everlasting punishment"(Mathew 25:46) "Weeping and gnashing of teeth"(Matthew 24:51) "Fire unquenchable"(Luke 3:17) "Indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish"(Romans 2:8,9) "Everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord"(2 Thessalonians 1:9) "Eternal fire...the blackness of darkness for ever"(Jude 7,13) Revelation 14:10,11 tells us the final, eternal destiny of the sinner: "He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone...the smoke of their torment ascended up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day or night." |

What a beautiful writeup! Unfortunately, the demon responsible has seized their brains and it takes grace for them to see. Two of them came to my office today and I asked: Are you born again? They said no! And that they don't even want to get born again! I said, why? They said, not everyone is destined to make heaven (it's a tall order) and they are content to be on the earth. I said salvation isn't by works, but grace through faith! There argument was that salvation is not the same thing as being born again. I was just sorry for them at the level of their brainwashing. It's almost demonic. John 12:40: "He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them." OLAADEGBU: |

Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by shadeyinka(m): 9:40pm On Jun 25, 2019 |
Janosky:I honestly believe that you are confused! I asked you to find just one single verse in the new testament where the grave was was described as hell or even vice versa, you couldn't find any. I had to read your post several times to see if there is any sense to be gleaned:but alas! You now found the Greek word μνημεῖον (Transliteration: mnémeion) meaning Grave or Tomb . And of all your copy-paste, you couldn't show that it could mean Hell anywhere in your post. SMH!
mnemeion is grave NOT Hell Mar 9:43: "And if your hand offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:" The word used as hell in the Scripture above is γέενναν which transliterated is geennan (Gehenna). Can you see that you've been decieved? Unfortunately, you'll rather follow those leading you to Hell rather than the Scriptures.

Barristter07: I gave you a load of clear scriptures to explain everything to you, but you still came up with this junk question again? Now, really again... Eternal life means live forever without dieing, right? Isn't that what fully happens when the body resurrects after the spirit goes back into it? Such a person dwells in the presence of the Lord. For those who didn't believe God... 2 Thessalonians 1:9 These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, The below verse clearly shows the Bible differentiating both quality of life. One is punishment while the other is in the presence of God. Matthew 25:46 (KJV) 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. Did you see everlasting punishment up there? If it's not punishment and it's not everlasting, then do you think atheists have any reason to be worried since they are just going to die and that's all? Matthew 25:41 (KJV) 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: As seen above, no everlasting life for the unbelievers, but everlasting torment, punishment and fire for them. They are going to be where the devil and his angels will be. According to you, hell is just a common grave and the soul doesn't live on. Then what's so special about what John the Baptist said to the Pharisees below when he warned them of the damnation of hell? Since you say that's where we are all going to end up and unconscious, then why should the Pharisees be bothered? Matthew 23:33 (KJV) 33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? It's clear you are not seeing the scriptures placed in your front. You just want to remain a robot with the programming if watchtower |

Jozzy4: Souls are currently in he while their bodies are in the ground dead. They will be judged before the bodies are thrown into the fire where their souls are. Revelation 20:12 King James Version (KJV) 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. |
Re: Does An Immortal Entity Needs Everlasting Life ? by alBHAGDADI: 4:08am On Jun 26, 2019 |
Jozzy4: James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. During death, the spirit leaves the body. That is what the Bible deffines as death as seen in verse above. The body goes into the ground while the spirit lives on either in hell or heaven. To your questions, yes souls are in hell right now, but their bodies are in the grave. It is after the final judgment of the wicked that their bodies will be resurrected, not to be alive again but as the dead i.e the bodies remain dead as seen in revelations 20. After jugdment, they are then thrown into the fire where their souls are. That brings to past the saying of Jesus Christ... 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.” |

Janosky:I am so Sorry for you! Fake Translation!? Or non-translation!? Please what is the fake Translation? For, "Gehenna" isn't a translation, it is a transliteration! "Hell" is a Translation of γέενναν (gehenna)! For your information, gehenna wasn't translated as hellfire as you have concluded and insinuated, it was translated as hell. Hence Jesus did not call Gehenna Hellfire but Hell! Jesus only qualified this hell as a place where Fire cannot be put out! as per your accusation! If you've made up your mind to be in Gehenna, have it your way. For Jesus want speaking of a terrestrial refuse dump; if you think He was, please justify it? 1. It is better you enter life maimed (after Resurection) than go with your two hands into gehenna (Hell) 2. The Fire of this gehenna cannot be put out, terrestrial gehenna's fire has been out for up to 200 years now 3. The opposite and alternative for this gehenna is the kingdom of God (after Resurection) hence, this gehenna can only be Hell 4. This gehenna is described as where the maggots does not die (looks like the maggots are supper maggots that are not terrestrial) Here, I have put a translation that struggles to translate the gehenna as hell so that the meaning can remain hidden. Mk9: 43-48(NWT) 43 “If ever your hand makes you stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than to go off with two hands into Ge·henʹna, into the fire that cannot be put out.i 44 —— 45 And if your foot makes you stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame than to be thrown with two feet into Ge·henʹna.j 46 —— 47 And if your eye makes you stumble, throw it away.k It is better for you to enter one-eyed into the Kingdom of God than to be thrown with two eyes into Ge·henʹna,l 48 where the maggot does not die and the fire is not put out.m You want desperately to believe that this gehenna spoken of by Jesus is the literal Physical refuse dump!? Continue to decieve yourself! Which one do you think is an appropriate meaning of gehenna? 1. The place where idolatrous Jews offered their children in sacrifice to Molech? 2. The place that served as refuse dump in the time of Jesus? 3. A place describing Hades? As usual, you will avoid these questions like plague: for people love darkness rather than light.
