I didn't say you said it. It is what the majority of Christians believe and was in response to you saying, "...then we must do as Paul did and start following the Lamb (Jesus) wherever He goes.". It means he kept it perfectly and that he fulfilled the aspects of it that pointed to him or were...

We are to have faith in YHWH and His Son Yeshua (Mark 11:22; John 14:1). The Lamb will not lead people to break or abolish his Father's laws.

Dead people are not conscious. Prove it. Fallen angels are in Tartarus, not sheol or hades. The "spirit" that ascends after death is simply the breath of life. It has no consciousness. The dead know nothing.

In that case, you have good reason to be scared as an unbeliever. Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. A believer on the other hand has no reason to fear because he loves God and knows that God loves him. 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but...

True, but we were discussing "hell fire". Believers are not subject to the "Lake of Fire". That is only for the wicked.

I agree, but here you refer to it as real fire and in the next two posts you emphasize figurative fire. Which do you believe?

I lean towards real fire and literal ashes, but it will not burn people alive forever, or as Minucius Felix wrote, "That clever fire burns the limbs and restores them ...". That is utter nonsense. I have no problem believing "fire" and "ashes" could be figurative language.

No one prior to Hippolytus said such a thing. Yes, they believed in eternal punishment (the effects of the punishment are eternal, not the act of punishing), and unquenchable eternal fire (not eternal torture). It wasn't until 212 A.D. that the false teaching of eternal torture arose. If eternal...

Where are you getting this info from? Certainly not from the Bible. Please cite those four times. Yes, evil spirits (fallen angels), not dead saints that are conscious.

Grace does not abolish law. It provides unmerited favor for those who broke any of the Creator's commandments. Once that grace is received, it leads to the believer doing good works, shunning evil, and walking in obedience to the commandments we were pardoned from breaking. For a thief to...

Wow! Now law keepers are seeking to earn forgiveness. Thank you Dr. Freud for your incredible insights into other people's minds. You are a sick, judgmental man. But hey, if it makes you feel better to cut me down, have at it. My Savior had to deal with the false accusations of ignorant men as...

Are you trying to tell me you do not sin? Causing someone to work on the Sabbath or feeding your children swine's flesh are not acts of love. What does 1 John 5:3 mean to you? In other words, "condemned breaking the law in the flesh". Romans 8:4-7 goes on to say, Rom 8:4 That the...

Yeshua certainly did NOT come so I can continue to live in the same sins he cleansed me of. How did I know you wouldn't harmonize Luke 1:5-6 with your view? You interpret my words as boasting because you are judgmental and read into them whatsoever you choose. You put all law keepers in your...

Do you hear yourself? You are saying God gave them the Law because He did NOT love them? It is irrelevant if man cannot keep the law perfectly. YHWH made a way for man to be righteous apart from the law. Luke 1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named...

The Pharisees were "religious" men that made a bunch of man made rules. Surely you jest? John 14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments. 1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. Every commandment in the Law is founded...

Are you now accusing me of being proud and haughty? You sounded so spiritual and intelligent until you saw how far apart we are concerning the name issue. Now you sound carnal and childish. It is a FACT that restoring YHWH to the text makes Scripture so much clearer. There are so many...

Biblically, hades is a place, not a god. Tartarus is not the realm of the conscious dead. It is the realm of the conscious living fallen angels (2 Peter 2:4). Also, the word tartarus is not used in the LXX as far as I can tell.

This refers to the man-made commandments the Jews ADDED to Torah. I am already inwardly clean through Yeshua. Placing greater emphasis on spiritual cleanness, however, does not mean we should place little or no emphasis on physical cleanness. Abstaining from unclean foods, from touching dead...

You left out the most important word, "Then".

What does that have to do with anything? We are discussing flesh and blood men going to heaven without dying, not who came down from heaven.
