Christendom half right about hell.

<< < (8/8)

Flanagan:
When I read half right about hell I instantly thought you meant the part about everlasting life being the right half of their teaching on Hell.

--- Quote from: John from Kentucky on June 13, 2016, 01:02:09 AM ---James 1:17 teaches us all good comes from God without variation.

Jesus taught that Satan is the Father of lies and was a murderer from the beginning.

The first two chapters of Job show Satan is the principal source of evil.  Satan killed Job's ten children by a tornado or strong wind that collapsed the house they were in.  Satan took away Job's wealth.  Satan gave Job a loathsome illness that brought him to the edge of death.

God placed bounds on the evil Satan could do or it would have been much worse for Job.

Satan is the god of this world.  Satan tempted Jesus by offering all the wealth and power in this world.  It wouldn't have been a true temptation unless Satan could have delivered what he said.

When tornados occur and kill babies and other people, it is Satan who does the killing.  Satan deceives and calls it an Act of God, but Satan lies.  It is an act of Satan.

The wars and killings, famines, sickness and disease, religious deceptions and lies---the four horseman of Revelation----that occur in this world and age, come from Satan, the god of this world.

God will bring everyone of us healing and salvation.  All of us will have all blessings and all good.  God will bring us good at our appointed time.  The zeal of the LORD God Almighty will bring our salvation about and wipe away all tears and give us peace.

--- End quote ---

Nonetheless, the days until we find peace are interminable.  A day seems as a thousand years, which, as it turns out, is a really long time.  By lunchtime tomorrow, I'll be 182 years old.  I don't know where the time goes.
