@divegeestersaid It is reassuring to the rest of us that your belief in an eternal torturing version of Jesus keeps you from behaviour in this life that you wish to avoid.
It's reassuring to know your bombastic belligerence knows no end.
@divegeestersaid "moron" ... wow.
Your ad hominem insults do not distract me from your inability to explain your own embarrassing belief about eternal suffering.
So I'll ask again....what does "everlasting punishment" mean to you?
Does it mean being conscious souls/people being thrown 'alive' into a lake of fire where the burning suffering will be everlasting?
Are you that dense?
The question is what did Jesus mean when He said "everlasting punishment"?
@secondsonsaid I would if you knew what your point was.
Your deflections do you no justice josephw.

"Well, I for one know that if I were convinced there is no God I wouldn't live my life as though the possibility existed I could be wrong, even though, deep inside, I couldn't know absolutely that God didn't exist.

"It is reassuring to the rest of us that your belief in an eternal torturing version of Jesus keeps you from behaviour in this life that you wish to avoid"
So my point is completely clear; your belief of a version of a torturing God gets your behaviour in check. This reassuring to the rest of us.

Try to get your pinheaded mind around that.
"dense" "moron" "pinhead" I am not moved by your angry insults.
It is up to you to explain what "everlasting punishment" means.
What does it mean?
