    I say to you today, [comma] you will be with Me in Paradise

    Here is how some who believe in what amounts to soul death try to get around it. They use time and God's control of it to say that it seems immediate to us, but we could have been laying in the ground for 100 years. Thoughts?

    I say to you today, [comma] you will be with Me in Paradise

    Since today is any time of day and daily is a constant, that's pretty much all the time. A 'day' would also include evening in this context. Now is a good time to start :)

    I say to you today, [comma] you will be with Me in Paradise

    Hello, I'm sorry for maybe some confusion. I have gone round and round on this topic in other places and I often manage to say things which I think make my points, but in hindsight maybe they are taken in a completely different way. My view- I believe a part of us ( the soul) goes to be with...

    Conscience and the Holy Spirit

    I totally get what you're saying here. As an early believer I had a few vices which I could have easily tried to justify. Instead I went to the Lord every time and there were MANY times. I just couldn't lie to myself that it was ok. There were times I didn't think I was ever going to kick it...

    Is cussing a sin?

    I see a small divide between identification of something in slang as compared to cursing. Though generally I avoid even that "identification" as it isn't condusive to most good conversation. There are a few circles I work in where some words considered to be cuss words are really just low level...

    Conscience and the Holy Spirit

    It seems to me unbelievers can quench their conciences pushing in them so far down that they can be ignored with impunity, at least temporarily. In trying to minister to these people I need a miracle. There is not God, there is no sin. The God of the bible ( if He were real) is cruel and so...

    I say to you today, [comma] you will be with Me in Paradise

    I liked your comparison to computers and software as it's something I work in daily. The soul being the software and the body being the hardware. In the end I'm not sure how much these ideas will influence a non believing naturalist, but I don't think misrepresentation of the bible is ever a...

    Conscience and the Holy Spirit

    Such as when a person tells you there is no such thing as sin which is only a religious concept? I would say that's hardly any conscience at all. That's a tough nut to crack. In fact I can't crack it. Only Jesus.

    I say to you today, [comma] you will be with Me in Paradise

    I was recently in a discussion with an atheist and on jumps a Jewish believer who promptly told them that everything we are is in our grey matter, in addition to not believeing in demons or the occult. I at one time leaned toward the the 7th day Adventist position, but have since changed my...

    New Here

    I am coming here with a recommendation from a member. Active on another Christian forum, but forums sometimes get slow. Those who see my name will know who I am if they visit the other forum. I like being with other believers, studying the bible and making my own music. Glad to be here. I hope...
