I'll try to answer this as best as I can. I see within kids, a bent toward asserting their rights, and a wanting things their way, at other's expense. Sure this is immaturity, and we as parents can correct much of this. Since this is so, I kind of view this life, in the here and now, as our Heavenl...

B.W., good, glad to hear others want to still poke around at the origin of sin. So torment discussion is in stasis temporarily, that's good and fine by me. :lol: Your post earlier about having Bible verses but not wanting to lay them out reminded me of when Jesus was once asked a question, but he di...

It seems we've already started to encroach into aspects of culminating discussion about hell and punishment (and whether hell is relevant today). From my own perspective, origin and nature of sin is not satisfactorily resolved yet, and I'm more than willing to still explore it, even with discussion ...

Ah, and yet, my viewpoint remains with the exact same unresolved questions still. Perhaps this demarcates difference in mindsets or beliefs that are inevitable when random people talk about subjects like this (and which, in my experience with forums, is not so likely to budge). In light of my words ...

Yes, here are some verses, and a few more thoughts. Now, we talk about original sin, and we tend to think about ourselves and Adam, about people, but we should also take a look at the bigger picture. How did that serpent in the garden get the sly idea to tempt Eve? Well the Bible does tell us that ...

(Mystical, of course your more than welcome to use anything you like. What's mine is yours. :D ) All men are accountable to God at all times. Those who have never heard the gospel are without excuse. Those who do not accept Christ reject Him. There is no middle ground. Heaven is for Christians only....

Hopefully the earlier parts of the topic on hell won't become forgotten, I was curious how those would develop. But on original sin: Original Sin came from somewhere and seems to be passed on generation to generation, evidenced by our own life courses - what is it? What is Original Sin? Is it an ide...

Can children go to hell? I don't know that people can have the powers of discernment to know how God judges children, or even individual adults for that matter, seeing as God is infinite in his plans and wisdom. The afterlife verdict for a person is of eternal gravity and would seem to require the e...

I'm new to the message board but a few things came to mind that I thought I should say. As j316 posted above, 'seek and you will find.' A lot of people worry over uncertainties they have about not having arrived at a strong enough grasp of what God and religion are all about, you're not alone with t...
