    You obviously have not read my posts. Looks like I'm the only one here who believes in the literal interpretation of scripture.

    Certainly not. That's why hell could be forever for some. That fits in with the definition of an age as a long, indefinite period of time.

    I don't hold to PSA. It's abhorrent and a gross mischaracterization of God's character. I hold to Christus Victor, the doctrine of the early church.

    There is none. Because every time you see the word "eternal" associated with hell, that is not what it means in the original. The literal meaning is age-abiding, age-during, lasting for an age. And an age is not an eternity

    I've never heard of left-handed, semi-Pelagian, supralapsarian, Baptist monks, but my point still stands.

    I wondered how long it would take for that to mentioned.

    I am arguing for the literal and original meaning of scripture on this subject. If I have to be banned for that, so be it.

    They go there, to the age-abiding lake of fire.

    Thank you. We are far apart on some things, but I have always thought you had a Christlike spirit.

    I guess after catching up on this thread, I'd better head on over to the "Marks of the early church" thread and catch up there. But I think I'll wait till tomorrow. I really don't like conflict, but I do like discussion, and some things are worth standing up for.

    OK - I see a problem here. Jesus did not descend to hell (the place of torment) after His crucifixion.

    Actually, you don't. You explain away the clear instruction and teaching of Scripture regarding hell.

    Can you show support for this assertion?

    Quite the contrary, our condition is made manifest here. What we do is merely the fruit of our nature.

    Actually, I've read them all. That's how I know you're lying when you say you've provided verses that say there's no Hell.

    Probably a reference to:

    18 Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
    19 in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison, 1 Pet 3

    'Metaphorically', yes:

    7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
    8 For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life. Gal 6

    You are changing scripture. You think because you can take a word out of any context, define it without context, you then work to place it within your presuppositional context afterwards and set doctrine based on what you want. You do violence to scripture.

    Unless you have greater insight than the Son of God, I will trust His view over yours regarding Hell!
