Question on Sharing UR

--- Quote from: Kat on January 13, 2007, 01:40:49 PM ---Hi Michele,
I think what rvhill was saying, is that all will be saved in the end.
We should be thinking about how, as in the first resurrection or the lake of fire.
1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable before God our Savior,
1Ti 2:4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to a full knowledge of truth.

it also important why we are saved. As in why is God righteous, and why are not, as an example.
--- Quote ---What the churches teach is all you have to do is believe and you will be zipped into a heavenly paradise, when you die.
There is so much more to it.
Everyone will give an account and will be judged, for everything they have done.
Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done.
So for those that think they believe in Christ is all they need, and don't have a thing to worry about, well the lake of fire is going to be a real shock. Everybody is going to have to answer, for everything that they think they are getting away with now. It is not going to be a good experience for them, that is what I think the 'weeping and gnashing of teeth' is all about.
Mat 13:49 So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous
Mat 13:50 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Everybody will have to learn obedience, now judgment on the elect is easier, later in the lake of fire, it will not be a hard experience for the rest.
mercy, peace, and love

Technically everyone goes in to the lake of fire. God is a fire and the believes become like God a fire. So, God and the believers are the like of fire. The process of becoming like God, a fire, is more painful for some then others.
Here a thing which will really bake your noodle.
Rev 14:11 like the rest of Revelations, but I don't think it mean what most people think it means. First who are the worshipers of the beast and who or what is the beast. Paul said that the beast sits in the temple of God, but Paul also say that the we are are temple of God. So how can any man sit in you? So you can't take it literally. Paul also say that everyone has a son of perdition(beast) in them. So if everyone is a worshiper of the beast then who is saved?
1 Corinthians 3:17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple.
2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
Deborah-Leigh:
Hello rvhill
I believe you answer your own question here.
You ask : So if everyone is a worshiper of the beast then who is saved?
1 Corinthians 3:17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple.
Those who are God's temple are saved because God will destroy anyone who destroys God's temple.
Who destroys God's temple? Those who oppose and exalt themselves above God.
2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
As Paul writes...the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Arcturus :)
