    Does God really exist?

    What would you expect to see, if G-d existed? Welcome to the forum, btw. :)

    What the Hell?

    Such wording implies that people are sent somewhere by Yahweh .. as in a prescribed punishment. We effectively punish ourselves. The reason why belief in G-d (or belief in Christ etc.) is a necessary requirement for salvation, is because it has a significant effect on our deeds. The idea that...

    What the Hell?

    Mmm.. Precisely .. it's not made of matter .. it's a spiritual concept .. of the very foundation of existence. That's it .. we believe in that which is hidden from us. No .. we can't be G-d .. G-d is of an infinite nature .. one soul, being part of an infinite phenomena, cannot be that from...

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    That would be a version of prescribed justice in the OT, to be implimented in this worldly life. It says nothing about the possible scenarios in a life hereafter. One important difference between belief and disbelief, is in the concept that physical death is not the end of our spiritual...

    What the Hell?

    I think @Thomas has already covered the topic of "eternal" , and I have also commented. (a very long time)

    What the Hell?

    Well, most creeds claim that they have 'got it right' .. ..and here you go preferring a 'literal reading' in this instance. I see the destruction of a soul in a metaphorical sense .. breaking down .. total failure. Well, this is what atheists claim, when they say that so many people are...

    What the Hell?

    That assumes that any "punishment" that a soul experiences is due to actions of "a person called G-d". I don't think that that is the case. Well, we know that pain serves as a signal to "correct" what is causing it. ..which is why you believe in a doctrine of 'blotted out' souls .. it's what...

    What the Hell?

    If you are talking about empirical evidence, I don't think the 'Christianity forum' is the place for such discussion. Suffice to say, that Christians believe in a life after death.

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    Yes .. our lives mean something .. and not just on a superficial level. i.e. we eat, procreate, and die History is meaningful .. it has been accurately, cosmically recorded. Each and every one of us has a part to play. Our deeds affect our future .. including after death. It is just too...

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    That makes no sense to me .. if one knows naught after death, there is nothing to miss. What does it matter, if one lives forever or is 'blotted out'? Furthermore, that is NOT what Jesus taught according to the Gospels. ..unless one wishes to explain away verses in the NT as fictional or...

    What the Hell?

    Perhaps you should ask @Thomas .. Are you saying that the concept does not exist in the Christian Bible?

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    ..because our lives would have no cosmic meaning .. no matter what we do, it really makes no difference, because it is negated by oblivion. Well, that is the whole point .. that our physical death is not the 'end of the story'.

    What the Hell?

    It is understood by most people to be something, which could perhaps be described as 'the essence' of a person, that does not die along with the physical body.

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    satan is created, just like you or I.. We are all capable of good and/or evil. Those who mistakenly turn towards evil ( particularly those who praise satan), are heading for a similar fate.
