While that is most likely so (Seeing I believe in a literal hell), that does not mean this verse is saying that. It is clearly referencing the event when the eternal fire came down from out of Heaven and destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. That is the EXAMPLE. An example is something you can see...

Jude 1:7 “Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.” An example is something that we can witness and see. Today, we can visit...

The phrase "agree to disagree" is not saying I am okay with untrue things. It merely means that we both agree to the fact that we disagree with each other on a particular belief. In any event, may the Lord's peace be upon you.

We can agree to disagree (of course). May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you.

That's not true. I said plenty, but it is information that you would rather not look into because it would destroy your current worldview that you cherish. It does address the issue because having the right Bible will give you the right words. Your approach to the Bible is not consistent...

Well, I am not here to debate the truth of the "Trinity" (Godhead), as Scripture teaches. If you want to learn more beyond what you think you know, check out this multi-part video series on the defense of 1 John 5:7. It's a scholarly discussion that is really informative. Also, 1 John 5:7 is...

You are not getting the bigger scope of the picture of Bible history. Just as the Bible talks about there being two vines (Vine of Sodom) (True Vine), there are two lines of manuscripts. There is a corrupt line of manuscripts and a true line of manuscripts. Men were repeatedly martyred for...

How many times have other believers admonished you about the Trinity or Godhead? How many times have other believers admonished you about how Jesus is God? Just looking through some of the threads, I noticed you had been admonished by other believers several times on these truths in Scripture...

1 Corinthians 12:13 (New American Standard Bible) For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 (Legacy Standard Bible) For also by one Spirit we were all baptized into one...

The Jews could have said the same thing when the Scriptures continued in Greek with the New Testament. In other words, God moved with the times. The New Testament portion of the ESV was translated from the NU (Nestle & Aland). This is only a problem if you don’t mind a Catholic influenced...

Sorry I believe God preserved His Word in English and not a dead language that most people do not know how to speak. God is not the God of the dead but of the living.

I am not in any disagreement with what you said here.

Take no offense, but I strive not to talk directly with those who deny the Trinity or the Godhead in Scripture. One has to know how God reveals Himself in Scripture according to His Word to understand other spiritual things.

I am not looking at this time to endlessly debate water baptism for initial salvation. But if you are looking for my apologetics or explanations on why I believe water baptism is not for initial salvation, see again my "Doctrine of Baptisms" thread here...

Jesus was not tortured in hell. That is a false doctrine that some Christians promote. However, Jesus did preach (declare a message) to the spirits in prison (i.e., those wicked men who perished in the global flood). Note: I personally believe Jesus was declaring victory in the fact that He...

:vgood:

First, thank you for the compliment on my being thorough. However, may the Lord Jesus Christ receive all the glory for any good God has done in my life and will continue to do to His mercy and grace. May we be like the 24 elders who cast their crowns down before Him. Second, I see several key...

I believe hell is a literal place of torment and I believe the rich man when he said, “I am tormented in this flame.” (Luke 16:24). I just believe the Scriptures also teach that after the Judgment, the Lake of Fire will be a place of either immediate or eventual annihillation or destruction of...

You misread what I wrote, and you are jumping to the wrong conclusions. You have to keep reading in my posts in this thread to see what I actually believe currently. Nowhere am I denying the necessity of water baptism. I was stating briefly what I used to believe in the past in the OP (i.e...

My apologies for using the word "Onesmith." I meant "Onesimus." It was a misspelling on my part. I fixed it in the thread.
