Heaven's Gates, Hell's Flames - Maybe the most satanic play ever
Evan600:
I must say that the title of this topic caught my eye.
I am ashamed that I was actually in this play while I attended a non-denominational church years ago. I was one of the demons that pulled people into the heretical flames of eternal torture.
I am literally sickened by this type of thing anymore. I just pray that God opens the eyes of those that are now part of this charade, that they may see how unscriptural that type of 'threatening' demonic doctrine it is.
I reflect back on those days and I'm so thankful for what He's bringing me out of, and bringing us out of.
God bless,
Jason

Hi to all,
I'm surprised that anyone familiar with Matthew 18.4 and 18.10 would teach that small children will be sent to eternal punishment in Hell. Even those who believe in eternal punishment should find in Matthew 18.4 and 18.10 sufficient evidence that children are exempt. In Matthew 18.4 Jesus implied that little children are not only IN the kingdom of heaven, but are the greatest in the kingdom! And regarding Matthew 18.10, I would find it strange that little children have their own personal angels in heaven always looking upon the face of the Father, while the children themselves are in hell.
Moreover, Paul said in 1 Corinthians 14.20 that we are to "continue to be babes in matters if evil." Why would Paul use "babes" as a role model and a standard for being free from evil, if babes are in fact to be consigned to eternal punishment for being evil?
I'm also surprised that anyone familiar with Scripture would think that any Christian in heaven would take any delight or satisfaction in others being in Hell, when in Ezekiel 18.32 God Himself says, "I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies." It makes no sense to me that we are to love our enemies now, and then take pleasure in their torment later.
It would make more sense for an advocate of an eternal hell to say that God gives His children in heaven some sort of spiritual amnesia so that they become entirely unaware of hell. This seems the only way Christians in heaven could both have everlasting joy (Isaiah 35.10) and also have a compassionate disposition toward their enemies (Matthew 7.12).
All the best,
humble bob.

This is disgusting beyond words that people would put other people through this.
Just when I think I have heard it all, along comes something like this.
This reminds me of the plays that the communists used to put on to indoctrinate their troops.
Mind control... >:(

It truly is a sad, manipulating thing. I really believe that a lot of it's done out of ignorance. I really thought that was 'close' to the truth. Not that there were really demons that pulled you in there, but that there was an eternal place. I thought that it gave people a 'reality check.' What a joke.
We must just pray that God sends workers for the harvest ;D
In Christ,
Jason

Really, I wouldnt have broken his jaw. I'd have considered it, but I wouldnt have done it. I hope.
What they did was borderline, if not outright illegal.
