Divegeester is a fake Christian. I have been reading posts for 2 months now, and have never, never seen divegeester post anything that would hint at his Christianity. The ONLY thing divegeester does is challenge the doctrine of a 'hell'. That is it. He never, ever speaks of anything regarding Christianity.....like, feeding the poor, helping the homeless, ...[text shortened]... ts are becoming boring and predictable....hell, being the only topic you are willing to discuss.

Chaney3, this is not good. When you point at someone else, you point three fingers back at yourself.
Jesus compels us to use wisdom.... love and suggest perhaps?

He is not the only one. There are a lot of JW's running about who don't believe in it either.

Why not leave the judgment of other people to omniscient God? He alone knows our hidden thoughts and motives.

I'll second that, suggesting we judge ideas, not people. (The expression of ideas is what this forum is for.)

So many of these posts & threads make me just plain sad. I don't get the name-calling, the insults and the anger. A great majority of us, I would venture to say, struggle with questions of faith and religion...does any of us really know the answers to these really difficult questions? I don't think so. That is where "faith" comes in. By definition, it means trusting and believing in something or someone without actual proof. You either accept this. Or you don't. But honestly, there can never be any room in a healthy debate or discussion for mean-spiritness or a lack of respect towards others' viewpoints.

I agree...

How flattering; a thread about me 🙂

What is heartening is to see the genuine spirit of this forum membership respond in a balanced, thoughtful way. With the recognition that while in this forum we are what we post, none of us are, in real life, explained solely by what we are in this forum.

That statement is rather silly isn't it?

How many Christians do you know who don't believe in their version of the Christian god?

I remember in the past we have talked about what we have done for the poor. But it gets to the point when it seems to turn into a bragging contest as to who has done most and who cares most. And I have decided not to get involved in such discussion any more.

We have moved on to other things now and it may be unfair to Divegeester to make that accusation ...[text shortened]... st this idea of an eternal Hell, since I informed him that i believed he deserved to go to Hell.

Somebody sane has hacked RJ's account!!!! 😲

Agreed!!!! You would think in a 'spirituality forum' that one could read about many, many cases of helping and feeding the poor. But.....not once have I read such things. This forum does NOT seem to care too much about being a Christian, just merely speaking as one would suffice.

Just because someone does not blow their own horn on all the things they do does not
mean they are not doing what Jesus wants.

We're still waiting for someone sane to hack yours.

Divegeester claims to only believing in his version of the Christian God, so technically he can't be called an atheist. It's a somewhat clever position for him to take, but his version of the Christian God is so far off base it can't even be called a cult much less a denomination.

What other version of God do you believe in, other than your version?

Other than eternal suffering and the trinity, what other aspects of my version of God do you feel place it "far off base"?

Where in God word is eternal suffering left out?
