Re: Worldwide Church of God

those are your OPINIONS, nothing more. Sometimes it is easier to see the doctrinal errors of others, rather than our own. Take Limbo and Purgatory, for example. Both do not exist but are constructions of the RCC. (Limbo was abrogated by the RCC last April.) Do what the Bereans did: check Scripture ...

Re: Worldwide Church of God

All of his books are from the bible, FL. All of Armstrong's books are from Armstrong, not from the Bible! I have read a few of them when I was in my 30s...and I was a subscriber to The Plain Truth . Thank God that I was an atheist at the time...! And since you admit you don't know, then why even re...

Agreed. It is heretical on so many levels. I don't know, but I would imagine that the adherants to this religion must focus more on Armstrong's books than on the Bible.

Re: Near Death Experiences?

Well, we already know from the Bible that consciousness continues after death...no news there. As for near death experiences, they are real. They happen. My wife is a nurse and a friend of mine is an anesthesiologist. Both could tell you stories about near death patients. I see this as something lik...

Re: Who has read the entire Bible?

I've read trough it several times. I prefer reading it in English, and the NIV is my favorite; I use a parallel Bible as well as French and Spanish translations to shed light on difficult passages. I have both Catholic and ecumenical versions in English & French; Catholic only in Spanish. I have...

Re: Saved... An easy way out?

But the majority of people will want to know they are going to Heaven when they die. And if being saved does this, they will want to become saved. ...In reply, Jesus declared "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born-again"..."no one can enter the kin...

Re: Saved... An easy way out?

So, let me get this straight... So, if Josef Stalin, a man that sent millions of people to their deaths and was anti-religion for his whole life, suddenly repented a year before his death and lived for God until his death, he would be accepted to Heaven by God? And Mother Teresa, a woman who was ve...

Re: Saved... An easy way out?

If you spend your whole life in service to others, if you give generously to your house of worship, if you are honest in all your dealings, don't you think God would say "Well done good and faithful servant!"? Wouldn't you expect to be welcomed into heaven? Well, you'd probably be greeted ...

Re: God + love + hell = ?

Excellent post, B.W.

Scroll up, BavarianWheels, and read it; if this doesn't convince you of consciousness & individuality after death, nothing will.

Re: God + love + hell = ?

BavarianWheels, You are now way off the topic I originally brought up which was individual consciousness after death. I only explained the witch episode in 1 Samuel because you did not understand it and because it was a way for you to see that Samuel did retain his personality and some form of body ...
