" But I will tell show you whom you should fear, fear Him who after killing, has authority to cast into Gehenna; yes, I tell you, fear this One. " (Luke 12:5)
1.) Is this a saying of Jesus about where fear should be placed ?
2.) Does the teaching teach that God can no nothing more to a man than other men can do ?
3.) Does the teaching convey that after a man had done his worst to another man, God has the power and authority to do even more?
4.) Does the teaching teach that physical death -
"killing" puts a man forever beyond the possibility of him being further harmed by God, should God desire to harm?
5.) Does the phrase "after killing" convey God's punishment can only be carried out on the physically living?
6.) Does the teaching prove that only by keeping a man from being killed can God punish him ?
7.) Does the burden of Jesus seem to be that we love the teaching or just that we believe the teaching ?
The issue is whether or not you can make a coherent moral case for your torturer god ideology, sonship, not whether you can sift through mythological texts and find words and sentences here and there.
What moral lessons about the application of justice can human beings learn based on what you tout as being the "perfect morality" and from seeking to emulate your mythologized Jesus character when it comes to burning non-believers?
When, as you claim, Jesus "flows out" of Christians, which bit derives its "flow" from the burning-people-for-their-lack-of-belief aspect of your far-fetched moral universe?
Stop trying to make an 'it-says-here' regurgitation-of-text type case, and make - instead - a moral case that isn't nonsensical.

Quick question, why would God 'almighty, just and fair' (not to mention all loving and wise) only put 2 outcomes on the divine table?
1. Saved
2. Eternal suffering.

What a silly question. Would he ask what it was if he had come across it? Gee your poor students. 😛
