Sticking to the point when engaged in question and answers it is customary to answer questions put to you in an exchange, not just cry about the part you don't like. You are not defending your side, you just say don't like it as if that matters.

So tell me, a good God, and wicked, evil, sinful people, what is to be done by God?
Ignore the sin, the evil, the wickedness? He is recreating a new universe untouched by all of that, and since nothing exists outside of His making it. What is your answer?

Deny them everlasting life?

You. You. You. You. You.

You are doing nothing here but judging, despite you saying you don't judge, God will judge.

Looks like you're applying for the job.

And yeah, no, that is not what "following Christ" is about, hypocrite.
You. You. You. You. You. ... are the reason why Paul said You. You. You. You. You. must shut up when men are speaking.

Well, this really shows how long the forum can go. But I was very much a part of this series of exchanges and I take equal responsibility for these comments.

I think it's time to come up with stricter personal standards for how we are posting.

I am sorry for my role in this.
Here is what you can do. In a bible discussion, your church has zero credibility or influence. Nobody worships your church fathers around here. Nobody thinks your doctrine is perfect around here. The only thing that matters is what the bible says. There is no such thing as a heretic, except in your church circles.

So when I asked you for proof of that the bible says that the soul is immortal, all that was necessary was a response that says that the bible does not say that the soul is immortal. Appealing to comments from who you call 'saints' and their opinion is annoying and a waste of peoples time.

Yep, and you think anyone looking how God views things, is going to come away from that experience as anything other than guilty, outside of Christ? As a matter of fact even going to Christ we have to admit our sins and repent, so there isn't anything about any of us that is going to endear us to God, we cannot. We are all short of the glory of God, we have all sinned.

When you think about how good God is, how just He is, how holy He is, what comes to your mind? I'm assuming you have given some thought as to what God is like, do you entertain such thoughts at all?

That mouth of yours is something else, you praise God with that mouth and curse those He loves with it too?

I'd say someone who says, "I’m not interested in what God should do with people who do evil,.."

You are a biased hypocritical moron. Jesus and all the Apostles condemned false doctrines [like yours] in very strong language. How is is possible to love and hate at the same time [your words], and not possible to praise God and curse liars and crooks [like you] at the same time?

More nonsense. Your church doctrine promotes that all people are either going to get eternal life or eternal torment. There is no punishment or reward according to their deeds.
