Re: Divine Revelation Of Hell by Mary K Baxter

Yes, it Is hard to image that -- because we've always had that. But we Do have God's Word -- absent from this body either by physical death or being taken up in the rapture -- we will receive a glorified body. One just like Jesus Christ's after His resurrection.

Re: How can God know everything and let us have free will?

Another thought -- God Does know everything that everyone will ever do. Including our salvation. He knows who will accept and who won't. Maybe the 'bottom line' is that We are told to share the Gospel unto salvation with whom ever we can --Not knowing who will accept or reject -- unless God gives us...

Re: How can God know everything and let us have free will?

Wouldn't that kind of knowledge be omniscience //having all knowledge. Even though it's only that particular ladies' 'insight' -- it sounds 'fishy'. Someone having gone over the 'edge' somewhat. Sounds kind of like when people are dying / or think they are/ their life 'flashes before their eyes'. Ma...

Re: Divine Revelation Of Hell by Mary K Baxter

Nessa -- if we will retain memories of our loved ones / friends who've died and are not with them in eternity After all --wouldn't that be a sad thing and possibly cause tears of sadness. Or regrets that we somehow had failed them?

Re: Divine Revelation Of Hell by Mary K Baxter

Doesn't Scripture talk about 'utter darkness'? How far does a person move in total darkness? Not far. Utter/ complete darkness because God will be absent. God is the light of the world. I'm sort of hoping that part of the punishment of hell will be the unsaved remembering all the times they were wit...

Re: How can God know everything and let us have free will?

Because God is omniscient -- He knows everything / past, present and future. He gives us free will because we're not puppets who He controls -- we can choose to do what we want -- He knows who will ultimately accept Him and who will reject Him. He allows us to make poor choices and live with the con...

Re: God and murder

I'd commented earlier about another Forum I've been on. There are those there who even as atheists Will discuss / argue whether or not God is a genderless being / a he or a she. A person points out that God is referred as Father which signifies maleness cause Other religions have goddess as well. So...

Re: God and murder

There is another Forum I'm on -- a couple of atheists on there use that as an excuse --they refuse to accept a God who would kill innocent people just because they wouldn't obey 'some God''s rules. I've taken time to explain the in's and out's involved and it's like trying to 'reason' with a brick w...

Re: love wife respect husband

Because men need to feel respected by their wives -- husbands are told a couple of times To love their wives. And when a woman feels loved, they Will respect the person. It goes hand in hand.

Re: God and murder

Because they feel that God 'murdered' lots of innocent people in the world-wide flood waters. They don't accept that the people had become exceedingly wicked all the time. God created them and He, alone, had the right to destroy people were constantly wicked and will be raising the future generation...

Re: reincarnation

Being absent from the body and being present with the Lord immediately in eternity would say that reincarnation isn't possible.

Re: Divine Revelation Of Hell by Mary K Baxter

From the vantage point of what the book of Revelation says -- hell is being created / is For satan, the beast and the false prophet. It says that They will be in endless torture, knashing of teeth, utter darkness. The lake of fire and brimstone that never goes out. That is what is in store for them....

Re: Is it a sin to be insecure?

Well -- our relationship with God Can be resolved fairly easily. Do I believe in God in the 1st place -- Do I believe that Jesus Christ is God's Son? Do I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross to take care of my sins? That He rose again after three days? 1 Corinthians 15: 3 -5 or so. The Gospe...
