    Since you want to clear things up, where do the unfaithful, disobedient servants go for the 1000 years?

    I don't understand how anyone can fall for that heretical doctrine. Or how anyone can defend such teachers of that heretical doctrine.

    What they cannot explain is if the fires of hell or the lake of fire purges the saved sinner (I thought it was Christ's blood that does that), why are not the drunkard, the fornicator, the adulteror, etc., cleansed as well? After all, they become true believers of who Christ is.

    I thought I was on the "no-no to talk to list" :laugh:.

    Again why do you keep asking for information that you do not want and that you are not going to believe?

    Come join us in using the ignore function, Amy! It's like removing profanity from movies. It doesn't fix those that are beyond repair, but it makes them much shorter and more pleasant to view.

    Christ's blood does cleanse us from our sin IF we confess. Guess what . . . if we DON'T confess then we are NOT cleansed and we will receive a just recompense for what we have done.

    The cleansing blood of Christ is not automatic as much of Christendom would have us believe. We must request the covering of the blood through our confession of sin. Then and ONLY then will God forgive us of our sin. If we don't confess there is not forgiveness and there is no application of Christ's blood despite it being available for us and powerful enough to cleanse us.

    Much has been said on this thread about who is and is not a heretic, and whether or not "we" should put them on ignore or ban them. I have a couple of simple observations....

    I am an ordained minister of almost 20 years, member of a Southern Baptist Church, but theologically I am Reformation Arminian and Dispensationalist. Some of you -- without even reading further -- would accuse me of being a heretic. No discussion necessary.

    I don't see this board as equivalent to a "local church." The language of Scripture, in the proper context, is addressed to the Church, the Body of Christ as manifested locally. In my local church, I would not hesitate to cast a heretic out. But BaptistBoard is a PUBLIC FORUM. It is not the local church. While most here are Baptists of various sorts, many come here who are not, and some who read these posts are LOST. When they read the vitriol and poison of SOME of those who advocate KS and ME, they are turned off. BUT, when they read others who say we should IGNORE or BAN the advocates of KS and ME, they look at them just the same -- as self-righteous, close-minded hypocrites.

    In short, the Moderators control who may and may not post here. You as an inidividual have the ignore option without spreading discord on the board. I think, however, that spirited discussion and disagreement in hashing out issues here is actually a SERVICE to the truth, equipping true believers to confront error.

    I am no friend of KS and ME -- I believe them to be heretical. But if in confronting them I can turn an advocate back to truth, or persuade a novice to avoid false doctrine and walk in Grace, I will -- I MUST. To those who wish to shun others here because you disagree -- what does that accomplish but to butress your own hubris and self-righteousness??

    There are some (sometimes it seems like many) on this board with whom I disagree. There are none who I have put on ignore.

    Sometimes listening to those you disagree with will cause you to do further study on your own beliefs. After that study you will be more able to defend your own beliefs or perhaps in some instances decide you were wrong to begin with. If you ignore people you disagree with you will not have this chance for further study and growth.

    So what? This isn't a popularity contest, it's about a true gospel vs. a false gospel.

    Then why don't you listen to what the Bible says about such thing? I'm guessing that either you are not certain it is a false gospel heresy, or you are certain but you're willing to ignore how the Bible says to react.

    Now look at what Paul says immediately afterward...

    Also, while John was talking about a different heresy, the principle still applies.

    So call me a self-righteous close-minded jerk. I don't mind.

    This is rich. Kingdom accountability folks are worthy of shunning but someone who thinks you can lose your salvation is no problem...is that the gospel you received npet? Oh yeah...you're ignoring me. :applause:

    I forgot to mention that ME folks not only say believers will spend 1,000 years in hell, outer darkness, the lake of fire, or wherever. They apply the passage about "broad is the road.." to this. They therefore say that MOST believers will spend 1,000 years in hell, etc. Only a minority of believers will escape that judgement (themselves included, I presume).

    Kingdom accountability folks do not say nor have ever said that a Christian will ever spend even a fraction of a second in the lake of fire.

    You may presume that Kingdom Accountability believers will escape but no believer of this doctrine, whom I have encountered, presume on Christ and presume that He will count them worthy. Believing the doctrine doesn't get it done, being sanctified, suffering and working on behalf of our Lord does. We are to pray for this, not be presumptious...


    "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." - Luke 21:36

    "Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:" - 2 Thessalonians 1:11

    "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." - 1 Corinthians 10:12

    Of course, you're ignoring me so not sure how helpful this is, but it is obvious you ignored us when we weren't on ignore so it doesn't appear that there is much of a difference now that we're officially being ignored.

    It just occurred to me that this is a self-limiting doctrine. If all ME folks assume that the MINORITY of Christians will escape 1,000 years of hell, and they also assume they are among the minority, then they dare not evangelize their views to the majority of Christians. Once ME believers represent the majority, they KNOW for sure that most of them will end up in the hell they predict for others.

    Ooh, interesting paradox... (twilight zone music)
