It is the most vile doctrine known unto man. I am a convicted that the evangelical bible inerrantists will be punished severely for holding it over the lives of others without mercy,unless fully they repent of it.

I hope not. That description fits most of my family. On the other hand, it fit me once too, and I know it took a huge toll on me until I repented of it, so maybe you're right.

And Jesus said:
"And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."

" Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ "

" Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them."

"There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day."


and of those who oppose what Jesus said ... he also said of them:
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.
We'll see to whom the accusations of the most vile doctrine known unto man belongs to .....

What do you mean by saved?

Do you mean at peace with themselves and the world around them, secure in their faith no matter what the rest of the world thinks of Christianity, and hopeful of the future that God has in store for them?

Or do you mean... Neurotic scared hysterics, that are deeply afraid of themselves and loved ones going to Hell, and will start with mini-sermons to people who aren't interested just to "save" them?

Because the latter category is what this sort of thing has supposedly saved. They probably aren't, though. They don't have faith, they don't have boundaries, and they barely have common decency.

Also, this looks like a cheese 70s movie, and Jesus is creepy.

If we want to take the bible literally then I don't see any other way those who persist in the doctrine of it, having been made aware of their error can avoid what is to come for them. Punished until they pay the last farthing.

You will learn one day that these scriptures you love to quote while dismissing those that draw a person back to God are referring to your good self.

Common decency????? You cannot hold your peace about the most vile doctrine known to man and you want to talk about common decency ?.

You don't have a single scripture that Jesus Christ saves us from eternal hell, when will this sink in?.

Anything truth can be presented incorrectly by human dramatization \ sensationalism ... but that doesn't remove the fact that Jesus spoke these very words:
"And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.' "

" Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ "

" Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them."

"There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day."
and everything Jesus spoke is the truth and will happen.

It's ridiculous. Wanting to scare people into following Jesus.

All this condemning people and saying they're following satan is nothing more that regular ol' human beings, who are full of sin themselves, wanting the power to tell people how evil they are. Certain types LOVE the chance to tell each other how evil everyone else is. I assume they get some sort of release after they've made these proclamations.

Personally I consider presuming to tell someone else that they are working for satan about as evil as it gets because it can harm the innocent. NO ONE knows what is in our hearts but God.

Thankfully, the scroll button is easy to use.

I can't learn anything from the wantonly blind, wantonly deaf, those who rejected the truth other than they are destined to their fate.

I didn't bring up that up ... but when one needs spaghetti to attempt to justify accusing Jesus of something, it's not surprising that anything makes sense.

Once you hear this being said from Jesus:
"And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.' "

" Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ "

" Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them."

"There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day."
it will sink in ........ even for you.

They said the same kind of things to Jesus.

They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?”

We believe in Jesus and the bible is not going to cut it for you who hold on to the vile doctrine of eternal hell.
