This is just another red herring by you. This thread is about the fundamental broken morality and nonsensical idea of a God who loves his people (all of them) so much that he came and died for them (john 3 16) and them burns alive those who subsequently reject him.

If you want to make a moral case for this behaviour then go ahead and do so.

Are you aware of there being some conflicting and competing interpretations of what "true" means when it comes to specific parts of the Bible?

But your “interpretation” is the right one?

It was because FMF was trying to have a go at me again - I remember discussing with you but maybe he didn't know either so we had to start over again.

No why would we want to be each other? dj2becker is just as awesome as I am.
We just believe in the very same thing 😉 well - at least I believe so dj2becker?

What a coincidence, that’s exactly my approach also. But hey wait a minute...then how come we don’t agree?

You pretended to have forgotten what the OP was about because... I was trying to have a go at you? Really?

I mean - someone did write it down in the Bible - and I believe it 😉
No doubt there 😉
Why are you winking at me so much?

Now that is an interesting question.

What I am saying is that there are people out there who don't really know and understand what the Bible is saying. Thus the lack of knowledge will result in the wrongful understanding of scripture. I for one don't always know and have to lookup and study these things myself before making decisions and even then do I speak to a few pastors.

Non of whom I've spoken to before around this subject of "eternal suffering" believe its any else than just that.

So your interpretation is the correct one?
