This is a big claim, I'm confident you can back it up though...right?

Really? How then can you make sense of it? Can you honestly say that you believe sinners just go off to Heaven (or your version of it) regardless of their unrepentant sin?[/b]
Really?
Yes, I don't have the overweening need to understand, or claim that I understand, everything in the Bible.

See reply above

No I can't honestly say this because I don't know. What I do know is that they won't be burning alive in hell while Jesus oversees.

As I said, the Bible itself "backs it up" in Rev 14:9-11.

Sorry. If they worship the Beast or take his mark, yes, they will.

Even the sins of Satan? Are you sure about that?

Christ died so that Satan may live? Wait... what?

Seriously, I have no idea.

But he gets it right far more often than he gets it wrong.

More interestingly, hearing your interpretation of Lazarus and the rich man could cause a divided-and-conquered situation? You make your beliefs sound very brittle.
Really, you'd think I'd learn my lesson of giving you even a percentage of my attention... ever.

Not really., not at all actually.

How do you differentiate between sins covered by the 'blood' of Christ of those who you say are annihilated, and the sins of those cast into eternal suffering?

Which parts of the damnation concept and which you say are obvious/self explanatory do you think he gets right?

You often post dozens and dozens of times in a week responding to me. In terms of 'percentage' it makes up almost 100% of your attention on some of your swingbys.

What definition of "Eviscerate" are you using?

Apparently, worshipping the Beast or taking his mark is a much, MUCH bigger deal. Those annihilated in the Lake of Fire are simply annihilated, soul and all, since they refused to accept the offer of eternal life.

Actively joining with Satan to attempt to overthrow God is a sin beyond measure. It is literally the single worst thing a human (or an angel) could ever do. Thus deserving of the same punishment as Satan.

So you accept that such punishment is "okay" for Satan.

What about those who worship him?

I don't know exactly what you fold into the umbrella concept of "damnation".

Well we should warn people of what this means.

What is the "mark of the beast"?
What is "joining with Satan"?
