What do you mean "OUR"? And on top of that, it's probably YOUR Jesus-version, you're talking about.

Basically Paulus is the liar. But in the restricted Perry Mason choice you present* ( say "YES" or "NO"), the pauline Jesus would be the liar compared to NDEs.

...the Holy Spirit uses to comfort them so they will not be afraid to die. The Holy Spirit is reassuring them that they will be ressurected (my opinion on it).

All you do is take peoples words and twist them to your own usage. Come now, is this all you do, day in and day out is troll peoples beliefs? Sad existence you must have. I think perhaps, that it is YOU who do not learn. You try hard every day to throw your stumbling block in people's paths. I haven't seen you in any of the other forums, so apparently what i say must be true. You, are a troll. Now, go back under your bridge.
- Link To The Full Story
I floated along and up observing that some "door-ways" were open while others seemed to have been shut. The first doorway I peered into resembled a classic Hell. There was the sound of shrieking and agonizing screams. Naked human beings were strewn about a blasted landscape with pools of bubbling excrement and jagged boulders. Devils and other animals were torturing people in all imaginable ways; and people were also torturing each other. As I neared the doorway to this sinister scene, I felt a sucking sensation drawing me in like a whirlpool, and I found myself "flying" above the miserable landscape. The smell was putrid and the heat was almost unbearable but a part of me was fascinated by the seemingly infinite varieties of pain and anguish that was being inflicted on the inhabitants of this realm. Most of me wanted to leave so I had no difficulty and my feeling was that anyone could leave if they wished. I felt that no one or nothing had put those people in captivity except their belief in the agony they continued to suffer. I "flew" back to the doorway which was clearly visible from everywhere in the "Hell" I left with nothing but joy, but I still had a sense of myself as apart from that joy. The next doorway in the tunnel wasn't much better. As far as the eye could see people walked on barren yellow ground with their heads down, completely engrossed in their own depressed self- pitying thoughts, unaware that anyone else was around them. A great feeling of loneliness and isolation emanated from the scene, and I shied away from getting too close, although no sucking sensation was felt near this opening in the cloud tunnel. I flew along further up the tunnel and glanced in other doorways but the next one that made a lasting impression on me was a world of almost indescribable beauty. I looked upon a beautiful wooded garden with fountains and waterfalls and streams and bridges that glowed and sparkled with iridescent colors.

That was the fire that came down to devour Gog and Magog.
So you see, when you are thrown into the lake of fire you cease to exist because you ARE consumed. Consume=destroyed for eternity, in the ancient times to be consumed meant it was destroyed.

And undoubtly there are many books claiming the opposite. Personally I prefer to do my own thinking and start from as basic facts, as I can find and understand. I don't need anyone to predigest or 'authorize' my conclusions.
(With basic facts I don't necessarily mean reductionist materialistic science. Sufficiently broad comparative analyses with a functional methodology of human observations will do also. Such procedures with rather exact criteria exist).
That you and the books you relate on have similar opinions, doesn't move the subject into an 'objective' category (which I don't 'accuse' you of trying to do either). As long as you present a faith, and as a faith only, it's quite legitimate from the perspective of a rational position of 'debate-ethics'.
There's nothing derogatory about 'subjective' positions. We all have them somewhere in parts of our lives.

I dont believe in useing scape goat demons or anything like that. We are master's of our own bodies. And create to the will of our own imaginations. Which by the fruits of this world is pretty twisted and sadistic. Hell on earth is man abideing to his own will. Which according to biblical princables is the god of this world. Our own lusts rule us.
If there is a hell thats fine. But that wasnt the gospel Jesus commanded that we witness to. The hell fire gospel is the equalavent to putting a gun to you're head and saying love me or else. Does anyone who wants true love want it that way.
Jesus stated he will knock on you're door. He did not say he was gonna blow it down with a bazooka and hold you hostage untill you submit to his will. He taught the true gospel by his actions. Not say love and then threated with fire.
Come on compare what is being taught to what the truth of what Jesus is. I apologize I dont hold the same views as yall do. Thats just my simple opinion. Take it or leave it.
