The physical body of people you see is just like the clothes we put on.

It changes based on our preference. You cant go searching for a person based on the clothes you saw them wear 5 years ago.

So the bodies we put on in each lifetime as well as where we are born is different each time.
You cant use location nor description of physical bodies to track a spirit.

See, now you are changing it. So, no reasonable way of proving your reincar

God pardon devil? Did you see Him pardon Esau? Or pharoah or Cain? No dey hope useless hope.

God does not go back on His Word especiallly as He has to avenge Himself of all the things devils have been doing to Him and His people, so lose hope.

Abeg dont repeat that statement that jesus went to hell for 3 days.

Freedomman1960:


Everyone will pass through hell to get to heaven that is what is in the Bible but most preachers don't teach it you will be purged for the sins you committed on earth as soon as you are purified you will be admitted and welcome by your heavenly father the degree of your punishments is according to your sins .....Even our Lord Jesus went to hell for 3 days so if you are a very bad guy you will last longer than an average sinner the Bible said for all have sinned and fallen short of God's Glory ....it also state that nothing unclean shall see God's Glory ....even further our Righteousness is like a filthy rag in God's eyes so there has to be a system to purify the soul of man it dose not matter the religion you practice the only thing that can purify man's soul is Fire so we can walk inthe streets of Gold but from here na Fire direct

Of course, nothing you quoted say anything about Satan ruling over unrighteousness.

shortgun:

Just as God is the father to some people, Satan is also father to some people.
John 8 v 42
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me.
and
John 8 v 44

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Happy sunday.

The bible talks about hell and death been cast into the lake of fire.(Rev20:13-15)
This means every unsaved person is going to be swimming in fire for all eternity.

What about people who were unlucky to exist before the gospel got to their location? E.g people who lived and died before the gospel got to Nigeria.

What about most people in countries e.g north korea and other such countries who have little to no knowledge about christ?

What of people who were unfortunate(they're all going to hell) to be born into say islam, budhism, hinduism and other religious movements? You might say these people should simply convert to christianity just by hearing the gospel, but switching religion isn't that simple. They are plugged to their faith the same way you have been indoctrinated and plugged to yours.

What about other sects of christianity that aren't getting it right?

Are all of this people going to be thrown into the lake of fire recieving same punishment as shekau or Hitler for all eternity?
people go to hell because of their sin, Jesus came to redeem people from sin but not every one will accept him hence they die in sin.

God has given people evidence of his existence and power from the creation of the world if they sought God truly, they would have found him and he would have saved them through christ as Abraham who never knew christ in the flesh but was saved in Spirit by Jesus christ.
The problem is people reject God and hence die in their sin so there is absolutely no excuse for anyone anywhere at any time however punishment defers due to the level of knowledge and goodness bestowed on them but in all nobody have any excuse.

lols. I don't support the idea of people getting burnt for all eternity for any reason.

This is a part of christianity i still struggle with.

You don't need to struggle with it. The answer is clear in the bible, the 1st set of sinners were punished with death (Genesis 3:19) not eternal torment in fire. The lake of fire spoken about as the reward for sinners means they will not exist again when God brings paradise, even death and grave will be cast into same fire meaning it won't exist anylonger ((Rev 21:14) then death will be no more (Rev 21:4) the two last scriptures mean the same thing, "cast into fire" "will be no more" they all correspond with the punishment for Adam which is death. Ecclesiastes 9:5-6 shows the dead feel no pain. So they simply will not exist anylonger.
The origin of eternal torment in hell is from Satan the Devil who told eve in Genesis 3:4-5 that they will not die after God said they will die - Geneis 3: 3

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world (John 1:9)

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever (Heb 13 v eight).

Before the manifestation of Jesus Christ the Son of God in the flesh, During His manifestation and afterwards; He always lights up the conscience of everyone, everywhere in every generation.


For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another (Rom 2:13-15)



Some people hear only the basics from their conscience (e.g., non-Jews born before the time of Christ and cultures where the gospel has not reached) whereas others hear the full gospel; either way, the same Jesus works through these channels. After all, no man comes unto the Father except by him (John 14:6).

Job was not a Jew, yet became righteous because he was described as perfect, upright, fearing God and refraining from evil (Job 1:1).

So, no man in any generation and in anywhere in the world has an excuse for rejecting Jesus Christ

I think the question should rather be: when was hell created? Was it created same time as heaven? Or was it after Jesus went to heaven? When really was it created for the devil and his angels before humans were later considered as partakers.

It's all just a necessary lie to enforce order and responsibility for one's actions, which is good btw. To instill the awareness of rewards and repercussions for all our actions. Thinking logically, spirit or soul has no body to be burnt. All what I think happens, is the soul reincarnating back to the world to attend to some unfinished business
saddler:
The believe in heaven and hell is the most dumb and stupid thing any human can do.

All actions whether bad or good are rewarded here on earth.

You spirit doesn't have a body that will be burned nor do your spirit have a nervous system that reacts to pain.


Its all lies and falsehood concocted by the whiteman to control you.

Did He not warn you that He is a Word Keeper?

And Did He not further.warn you that The Law is "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth and forever, for a forever"?
I have questions for you.

1. Was Satan a perfect creation of God?
2. Did Satan fall before the creation of man?
3. If yes to both second questions, why did God not create a man that can't sin?

4. Will man fall again after reaching to heaven?
If no, why wasn't man created to be like he will be after being in heaven from the start?

5. Can God see tomorrow? If yes, did God know that man was going to fall? If he knows, why did he allow man to fall?

6. God hardened Pharaoh's heart against Israel, that was him taking out the will power from Pharoah to achieve his plan...
Why didn't God take away the will power from man after the creation?

7. Why did God allow Satan to tempt man?

Exactly 💯

Reincarnation provides for a whole lot of things.

Many people die without fulfilling their earth missions and some have to come back to fulfil the requirements for their soul growth.

In any case, although it seems based on falsehood there's some logic/wisdom in that scary doctrine of hellfire that they have used to keep the populace in line with established rules of proper human behaviour. Were it not for this consciousness, most people would have been living in a brutal state of nature.
Btw, I'm neither a Christian or a Muslim.

THERE IS NO HELLFIRE.

AFRICANS INVENTED RELIGION OVER 200,000 YEARS BEFORE WHITES EXISTED.

OUR ANCESTORS NEVER SAW A ''HELLFIRE'', BECAUSE THERE IS NONE.

WHITES EMERGED ONLY 5,000 YEARS AGO.

THEY ARE NEWCOMERS TO CIVILISATION AND RELIGION.

THEY WERE CAVE-DWELLING SAVAGES IN THE CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS OF RUSSIA WHEN YOUR ANCESTORS WERE BUILDING GREAT TEMPLES AND PYRAMIDS IN NUBIA AND EGYPT, WITH ADVANCED MATHEMATICS AND GEOMETRY.

THE IDEA THAT THESE SAVAGES ARE TELLING YOU TODAY, WHAT HAPPENS AFTER DEATH, AND YOU BELIEVE THEM OVER YOUR ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE, WHICH SIMPLY STATES THAT YOU RETURN TO THE 'LAND OF THE ANCESTORS' (THE SO-CALLED 'SPIRIT' WORLD OR AFTERLIFE), IS A DEEP AND SORRY TESTAMENT TO YOUR BRITISH COLONIAL RELIGIOUS BRAINWASHING.

THE IDEA THAT THE SOURCE OF ALL LIFE HAS BUILT A SPECIAL PLACE TO ''BURN'' PEOPLE IN AN ETERNAL FURNACE IS ABSOLUTE AND UTTER MADNESS UNKNOWN TO AFRICAN RELIGION, AND IS THE WORST FORM OF BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE CREATOR, AND RELIGIOUS BLACKMAIL AGAINST HUMANS.

A CLAIM CLEARLY INVENTED BY ROMAN PSYCHOPATHS TO LOCK IN THEIR 'CONVERTED' WITH FEAR.

DISGUSTING.

Biblically they all go to hell!

Except a man be born again he shall never see the kingdom of God. John 3:3

But Islamically,...they will be tested by the Almighty on that ressurection day and if they obey Him and pass they will enter paradise. If they disobey His command, they will be doomed to hell.

Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning).” [Al-Isra 17:15]

And there many levels of hells as established in the Islamic texts!

This life is a test. Hell and Paradise are the rewards!

Your islamic deity (allah) said you slaves are going to hell, is it in hell you'll be fuccking your 72 virgins
