The Lie That Made God Cruel
What Has Happened to Hellfire ???? WHAT image does the word “hell” conjure up in your mind ???? The Jesuit journal La Civiltà Cattolica observed: “Hell exists, not as a place but as a state, a way of being of the person who suffers the pain of the deprivation of God Had the pope described hell . A report by the doctrine commission of the Church of England said: “Hell is not eternal torment, but it is the final and irrevocable choosing of that which is opposed to God so completely and so absolutely that the only end is total non-being.” Again, is hell a fiery place of eternal torment or of annihilation? Or is it simply a state of separation from God? What really is hell . ?????

Regarding drummers with great names how about Arthur Dyer Trip 111,

fcc - // Florian Pilkington-Miksa, the drummer with Curved Air. //

I had a conversation with Florian about his name, and he advised that Florian is about as common as John in Poland where his dad was born, and Miksa is more or less as common as Smith, so but for the double-barelling which his mum added, he would be the equivalent of 'John Smith', but you're right - it does sound more exotic as it is.
Locusts, if you think the lie of hellfire is the only thing that makes God cruel you haven’t read your bible. If the creature ever existed he was a monster.
Atheist, are robots Ironically, some people have stopped believing in God because of what they were taught in church. Because of told that God burns the wicked in a fiery hell. Some just could not understand what kind of God would torment people in that way, so he became an atheist.
Later, however, the He agreed to investigate the Bible, assisted by one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. He was amazed to learn that the Bible does not teach that the wicked are tortured in a fiery hell.
The Bible likens death to sleep. In the grave, we feel no pain; we are conscious of nothing at all. (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10) The man also learned that those humans whom God judges to be incorrigibly wicked will remain in the grave forever. (Matthew 12:31, 32)
The rest of the dead will be resurrected in God’s due time, with the prospect of obtaining everlasting life under Paradise conditions. (John 5:28, 29; 17:3) This explanation made sense. It harmonized with the Bible’s statement that “God is love.” (1 John 4:8) So we tell what the Bible says.

atheist 19:33 Sat 28th Nov 2020 ///locusts, I really suspect that you are a robot If you're human, can you say something that a human would say?-a very simple task- where is the moon?
/// cope/pt to approve. I;m human -not robot
the moon, What Was Discovered ? Since the moon is on simple blob, discovery made by Apollo 12 in 1969 was that a lunar magnetic field exists. Early unmanned spacecraft had not detected any lunar magnetism temperatures on the oniere fund to range from 280 degrees F. below zero to 250 degrees F. above zero. wondered about he moon's age? Rocks taken from the early Apollo missions were estimated at from 3.3 to 3.7 billion years in age. However, one lemon-size rock was estimated to have an age of 4.6 billion years. The moon’s soil was estimated at being from 4.2 to 4.9 billion years in age. Thus Science World of February 16, 1970, commented: “Several researchers confirmed
I cant help thinking that total non-being would be good news for people who dont want to be saved. Jesus talks of hell as being a real place and a place of everlasting suffering
That doesn't pass the Turin test, that's Alexa.

Simple copy and paste job. Don't click. It's Watchtower obviously. :0)

More simply put the moon is in the sky. It comes out at night.
I too find JW's infuriating to have a conversation with. It's as if all their responses are pre-programmed. Those geezers in Brookyn have a lot to answer for
fiveleaves: what is a geezer?
Geezer = bloke.
Thanks, Theland! I was hoping that fiveleaves might know, rather than simply copying something that someopne else wrote.

Hellfire—Is It Part of {GOD } Divine Justice .???
Imagine, for a moment, the following horrific scene: A person is being roasted on a hot iron plate. In his agony he screams for mercy Nevertheless, many religions teach that God tortures sinners in an eternal HELLFIRE .Who knows the truth about what happens after we die ?  (Ecclesiastes 3:19, 20) There is no mention here of a fiery hell. Humans return to dust—to non-existence—when they die. (Ecclesiastes 9:5) It is impossible for the dead, “conscious of nothing at all,” to experience the agonies of hellfire. ..God’s Word does not say that such a place exists. When a person dies, “he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.”—Psalm 146:4. Ecclesiastes .3.20
I would love a drink of what locusts imbibes.
