The parable of the weeds

(1/3) > >>

Nickreading1984:
So ray's stuff seems to indicate that it's just the works that'll be burned up, but the parable of the weeds says that it's the weeds that'll be burned. Then, when Jesus explains the parable, he says it's the wicked who are the weeds.

Sounds like wicked people are gonna burn

Fire is symbolic the same way weeds are symbolic. Parables aren't part literal and part symbolic, they're all symbolic.

Nickreading1984:
But the explanations aren't. When he spoke plainly to his disciples, he said that the people were going to be thrown into the blazing furnace. Were those symbolic people? I don't think so.

You need to read the papers here Nick.  Most of your questions will be answered.  The lake of fire series explains what the lake of fire is, who it is for and how it is applied.  The 'hell' is a CHristian hoax paper will do much of the same thing.  But you'll have to make the effort to go through the papers if you want your questions answered to your satisfaction.
