Well, that's the only logical conclusion.

Hell doesn't exist ...... right?
God's wrath doesn't remain on unbelievers ........right?
Satan has no assigned place ....... right?
Eternal means temporary ......... right?

So what's left ....... God's love and heaven and a "age" existence in heaven.

Jesus had to save us from something ............................

twin.spin, of course hell does not exist. But Gehenna will exist for 1000 year age during Christ's millennial reign.

God's wrath or more literally, indignation ramains on individuals who do not believe. It does not say it remains on them eternally.

Satan has an assigned place during the millennial reign of Christ (the submerged chaos or abyss) and then he is loosed then put into the lake of fire for the ages of the ages.

"Eternal" means eternal but aionion does not mean eternal.

the bible does not say heaven is only for an age. So why say it? God's love is enduring because God is love.

What did John the baptist and the disciples preach to the people? Was the message "save yourselves from eternal tormet? No. It was "Save yourselve from this untoward generation."

Forgive me for not understanding this post. Is this for real, is it sarcasm because the OP thinks Christians are hypocrites, or is this someone trying to agitate posters on the Christianity board? Either way, I don't appreciate this post, and I hope all those who read it reply in kind.

You are one seriously confused man, Twin. You were told many times your lies are lies . . . and Jesus saved us all from eternal separation from God.

Twin-Spin,

You wouldn't know heaven if it bit you. The dead know nothing.

Real sarcasm and a poke at the beliefs of some Christians on the board.

I don't appreciate the post either.

No .... actually it shows who are the hypocrates if one takes what they say to its end conclusion.

Just who is the hypocrates (when to save face) it is said "Jesus saved us all from eternal separation from God" and yet swim with those who argue against that "eternal" is in fact not "eternal"


Just who is the hypocrate (when to save face) say "Jesus saved us all from eternal separation from God" and then in another breath say that it's barbaric de-evolution of the human understanding to think that God would do that in the first place.

I sometimes believe that the Elijah approach dealing with the prophets of Baal is probably the way to speak with those who accuse God.

Have you ever read about Elijah when dealt with the false prophets of Baal....read enough of the accusers of God here, apply what they are saying, and you'll end up with what who are truly the hypocrates.

They are the agitaters who are more than happy to drive posters away from this board who are the Christians that hold to the truth.

Correction. Christ saved us from the eternal separation from God. Jesus was the first man to understand this. Some food for thought!
