" KerryO,

"You're gonna miss us :) "

I hope that you all get saved so that I don't have to miss you. Imagine a place where you don't argue over who is right or wrong, you get to spend all of your time getting to know the billions of people and the God with whom you will spend eternity. I'm sure you don't want to miss that. "

Not interested. No Mysteries, no sale. No work to make the whole Universe a heaven for All as a birthright, there's no point. No concepts like, a la Star Trek, "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combination", I don't wanna go.

That’s an oxymoron right there.

What’s the point in ‘getting to know’ billions of people who think EXACTLY the same way you do?

What’s to get to know?

That was my point. In order to have a place where everyone agrees on everything, then everyone would need to be the SAME PERSON!

If Anoasis is correct in one of her suggestions that we might all very well move on to whatever it is that we believe, then you may very well move on to a place that is filled with billions of Spiders. All thinking precisely the same way that you do! It would be a hall of mirrors. You could preach hatred and bigotry to each other for eternity. laugh

Good luck in that place. Sounds like hell to me. Perhaps you’ve been deceived by the Devil?

Like Anoasis and Kerry, I’ll be somewhere else where things are much more interesting and much more pleasant.

For that matter, I already am in a place that’s much better than what you've describe Spider.

I'd rather just have to listen to your bigotry and hatred than to have to actually AGREE with you! noway

I totally agree fitness....its a never ending battle......and no one will ever win....But I know for me that I was asked by the Lord my God to get his word out.....When all the world has heard his word then and only then will Christ come back. For me thats an inspiration to by golly get his word out....which also happens to be the Bible....which again causes much strife among the masses. and I only hope and prayer that I will get to be at the right of my Savior when that time comes. I also think people can spread that word in a loving non judge mental way still get torn to shreds. Im reading an awesome book right now that I think all that debate this subject should have a look see. Its called The Present Darkness by Frank E. Peretti.....good read ppl

God Bless

John 3:16
=============================================================
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
=============================================================

"Life" in the above verse is "zoe" in Greek, which means "of the absolute fulness of life, both essential and ethical".

God is promising a life of absolute fullfillment. The Bible doesn't tell us what Heaven is like, but we are told that no man can imagine what heaven is like. Many envision heaven as a bunch of people standing around with nothing to say or do but play a harb and sit on a cloud. Because that can be imagined, it couldn't be heaven. And since that sounds incredibly boring to just about everyone, I don't believe that it will be fullfilling. When I think about heaven, I think about all the gifts that people have in life. Poets, musicians, singers, artists, storytellers, athletes, actors, etc, etc, etc. Everyone has a talent, why would that talent go away or not be used in Heaven? I look forward to heaven, I don't know what it will be like, but I have been promised an experiance that is eternally fullfilling without pain or misery.

That's very true spider.....but you honestly need to pray about how to go forward with these people. The Lord our God doesn't want or need us to judge others...I really love how much you love the Lord...but I also promise you that you will never get through to the masses the way you go about it.

I sometimes think its better to show by example then to bombard with scripture and what's going to happen to them. And ultimately we are not their judge....(looks up to the heavenly Father....He is....
