Death is going to take us all, hoped for or not. I'm in no hurry to die, but
I don't fear it. I do hate sin, mine more than others.

All believers in Christ share the Mind of Christ [divine viewpoint] to the extent that they're systematically learning, assimilating and applying the absolute truths revealed in the Word of God and making frequent use of 1John 1:9.
yes
or
no?

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI have raised this specific instance of you declaring yourself, as I have put it, "immune to human criticism" numerous times in posts addressed directly to you over the last nine months.

And here you are threatening to try to get another member of this community banned yet again. π

Originally posted by ZahlanziBased on this verse I say eternity has more to do with a location, a place, more than having anything to do with time.
it doesn't measure time, it is defined as time without end.
"Sounds ... to me"
i don't care much what it sounds like to you. you want to talk about the place where you go after you die? fine, go ahead. but you cannot use eternity. that is related to time by every definition in every dictionary. at the very least you should warn people that from now on ...[text shortened]...
you can't have a debate if you expect people to guess that you change the meanings of words.
Isaiah 57:15
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name [is] Holy; I dwell in the high and holy [place], with him also [that is] of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Now I realize that by now you got your undies all up in a bundie over this, but your being too dogmatic. If it suits you then accept whatever definition of eternity you please, but I'm inclined to think of eternity as a place to go to, or exist in, as apposed to merely thinking of it in terms of representing time.
According to the verse above God is there in eternity. God inhabits eternity. A habitation is generally associated with a location, and in that sense eternity is a place. A place where time has no meaning.
Sorry for pushing your buttons. You seemed to have walked into it. Sometimes I get that way. I used to be much worse. Even in the real world. A few times I barely got away with my life because of my confrontational nature. Peace!

Here and now we measure time. We use it as a reference for grasping the concept of eternity, but when our time is up here and we go to the hereafter there won't be any need for time as far as I can tell right now. π

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyWell, what you personally do when you face dissent and criticism on this forum is well documented and really no secret.
No human being is "immune to human criticism". When it's present we're all aware of it. Question is what do we do with it?
You do things like repost your OP; copy paste large tracts of other people's posts or your own; copy paste quotations that do not address any of the criticisms; or ignore the dissent or criticism completely
Other things you do: you often post something from the RHP Terms of Service; make some comments about "trolling" without addressing the people you have in mind; copy paste something about things like "trolling" or "emotionalism" or some other material about perceived personal weaknesses of the people who have disagreed with you or criticized you.
In addition, you often start whole threads with topics like "trolling" or "emotionalism" or "anger" or other similar things which allow you to make all manner of personal remarks about persons carefully unspecified.
In those April exchanges with people like me and wolfgang59 and SwissGambit what you did was declare yourself immune from human criticism.
