Lol... seems to me that you're evading the obvious conclusion that I've pointed out, because it messes with your ideology.
A dead seed doesn't grow into anything. A seed that is alive, does. Just like the seed of a man, dead sperm won't produce anything. Just ask a couple who can't have children.
The question is, what happens to dead humans, not living ones. There is no possible way you know what happens because you have not seen, or been too, the "Other Side".
You can keep referring to what other people have said in the Scriptures, but that doesn't prove anything because countless Books in other Faith's proclaim that they know.
If we can't meet with the dead, it will be a mystery until we die, and guessing will be the closest we get to understanding the truth about the Afterlife.
It's the Gospel according to NFS. Nothing is right except what he believes. Ironic, considering he continually blasts "religious" people who dare speak what the Bible says as truth.
He's like certain left-leaning groups who demand tolerance, but give none themselves.
Tolerance? Tolerance for what? Tolerance for the lies or assumptions you believe in?
Dave, I'm still waiting for your answer; why will YOU go to Heaven, and, who will go to Hell?
What makes you soooooo good that you will live in everlasting Life, while everyone else burns in Hell forever? Will the Catholics make it? How about the Baptists? What if someone isn't baptized? What about people like me, who struggle to understand or comprehend what I can't see?
Now Dave, do you take care of that Temple you live in? Or do you sin just a "little bit"? Maybe just a cuss word once in a while? Eat a little too much, or maybe a lot, like a great majority of people in Religion today?
What about someone who's divorced? Someone who isn't faithful to Church? Women who cut their hair? Where makeup?...................
Where is the line of God's mercy? I do know this, I have found great peace in being merciful to the people I used to condemn and call, sinners. I have also found that Religion can become the darkest form of manipulation on Earth, as Spectral Evidence is used as fact, and is the Evidence no one can prove.
NFS thinks he is going to drag people out of the body of Christ with his backslid nonsense...actually it makes me know how 'messed up' I could become if I walk away from God and deny Christ. Man, I am really making sure I dont end up like him. It can happen to anyone.
Thanks NFS, I will be sure to cross the finish line because of you. Im serious. It scares me to know what I could be facing if I fall back....
Sean, when you see the light, you'll realize this one, solid truth; the entire Human Race is messed up, so stop living in denial.

I will admit that Jesus is the truth and you are not.
Jesus is the Truth? Please explain.
Too bad you've never met Jesus. The only Jesus you know is the Jesus written about in the Textus Receptus, written in the dialect of Rome, Greek.
Jesus is the truth of the Roman tongue, where the Catholic Church was born. And, Erasmus, who was responsible for the translation of the Textus Receptus, was a Roman Catholic.
Just what I thought!!! You are AFRAID to tackle the monster of the Afterlife, proving, YOU DON'T KNOW!!
HA! No, just tired of your same dumb arguments. You're like a cow regurgitating its cud over and over again.
I've already stated what this is about. It's all about you and the gospel of you. No one is right, not Christians, not the Bible, not even Jesus Christ Himself. You have made yourself into a perverted twist of "truth."
In the end we all die, and then comes the judgement.
What will be your excuse, when your "truth" is found to be a lie.

If it is found to be a lie. I'm sure you meant "if".

Why does NFS keep trying to claim the OT says nothing of an "after-life"?
He even says it's not in the Torah, or is, but just barely.
Here's a quote from God Himself:
"I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob"
Three dead men (but actually still alive in the presence of God) by the time God said this to Moses, which Jesus used from the Torah to prove the resurrection and an after-life to the Sadducees, who said the Torah doesn't teach a resurrection and an after-life.
NFS, Jesus refuted your comments 1,980 some years ago.
God didn't write the above statement; (they believe) Moses did. Also, the New and Old Testaments are worlds apart regarding the Afterlife.
Where is Eternal Damnation in the Old Testament? Where are streets of gold, walls of jasper, and the crystal sea?
The Bible was written by men, and if we believe that Moses, David, and Solomon wrote books of the Bible, there were polygamists, murderers, and adulterers, and God's signature is not on any of the Documents. If we continue to believe that God wrote Scripture, we are lying to ourselves.
You know, VS, if you spend enough time going through Scripture to find and create your idea, you can do it. That's because Religion is the Face of Man, and that's what the Bible is. It will speak to you at every corner of your life, including the corners of Religious Bondage.
IMO, you know what "narrow is the way that leadeth unto life", means; people who leave the Religion who has snared them, are a people on a very lonely journey where the truth has overcome the myths they once trusted in.
The Broad way is Religion, and even Jesus embarked on this lonely journey, away from the Traditions of Men and into lives of broken and sick people, where reality existed.
