anybody?
besides you?

You just ignore the scripture I gave you.The verse says that we should fear the destruction of the soul in Gehenna,
We all die.therefore the soul can be destroyed.
I also believe that the soul can die, because the Bible says "the soul who sins shall die". Ezekiel 18:4.
You are using the term "destroyed" in a figurative sense. Do those who destroy their lives by going through a brush chipper headfirst still live?
Of course not. Unless the person is dead and unsaved as a result of those choices.If a person's life is horrific because of the choices he made, is it a life destroyed?
Of course not. Unless the person is dead and unsaved as a result of those choices.
People say that as an exaggeration.
No I didn't. It says "fear the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell (Gehenna). I believe that the bodies and souls of the lost will be destroyed, just as the scripture says. I think you just ignored the scripture you just gave me, because you don't believe that the lost will be destroyed in hell.You just ignore the scripture I gave you.
Yes, and we will all be resurrected to stand before the judgment seat of Christ where we will either receive eternal life from him or perish.We all die.
I did answer. The figurative destruction of a life is not the same as the literal destruction of a person.You did not answer my question. If a person's life is horrific because of the choices he made, is it a life destroyed?
You have not proven that the lost will cease to live. Being destroyed does not always mean cease to exist.No I didn't. It says "fear the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell (Gehenna). I believe that the bodies and souls of the lost will be destroyed, just as the scripture says. I think you just ignored the scripture you just gave me, because you don't believe that the lost will be destroyed in hell.
You cannot say that destroy means cease to exist.Is it a life destroyed? What do you mean? Is the person dead? Then no, their life has not really been destroyed. That is a figure of speech. How about the person who went headfirst into a brush chipper? Has their life been destroyed? Yes. That is not a figure of speech.
How about the person who has their body and soul destroyed in Gehenna? Is their body and soul destroyed or are they not destroyed but merely in pain?
Because there is always Hope while someone is still breathing. Using the word "destroy" is an exaggeration until that life is *literally* destroyed.Are you saying their life is not destroyed while they are living the way they are living?
Are you saying it is untrue?
Why would destroying your life with sin be an exaggeration?
The spirit of humans do not die.
Matthew 10:28 And fear not them who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
The soul is a body with its spirit.
We read in Matthew 10 that a man cannot kill the body with its spirit.
So then, how is it you believe the spirit can die?
The scripture is about after the resurrection when God will throw some in the lake of fire.
Is a destroyed life meaning a life that is not living anymore?
Do not those who destroy their lives in this lifetime with sin still live?
You are bearing false witness.
and the opposite of eternal salvation?
temporary salvation? or eternal damnation? or temporary damnation?and the opposite of eternal salvation?
temporary salvation? or eternal damnation? or temporary damnation?
temporary salvation?
or eternal damnation?
or temporary damnation?
and conditional salvation
:think:
can one's salvation be at risk once they're in heaven?
Because there is always Hope while someone is still breathing. Using the word "destroy" is an exaggeration until that life is *literally* destroyed.
just read your posts
I believe that Chrysostom has already opened his Bible, read and believed what he read. And I don't see where he has lied about anything.You are a sad case Chrysostom.
Open the Bible read and believe.
You keep speaking lies about me.
Let's discuss the scriptures and not what you think of me.
