Great tormentor, Great Annihilator, or Great Savior?
The preceding lists contain most of the leading Scriptures used to support these positions. Surely, not all three views are correct. If they are, then there must be passages in these leading Bibles that contradict one another. There are actually several reasons there are three different views all claiming to use the traditional Bibles of Christendom. REASONS FOR THE DIFFERENT VIEWS
Failure to hold on to clear statements of God's sovereignty, foreknowledge, power, omniscience, purpose of creation, and unconditional love.
Failure to believe direct statements of scripture declaring the ultimate salvation of all through the saving work of Jesus Christ.
Pulling scriptures out of context and putting them into an end-time scenario when, in fact, they deal with other ages. Scriptures speak of at least two other ages to come. (Eph. 2:7)
Inaccurate and misleading translations. Roman Catholic tradition strongly affected the first Protestant English Bibles which, in turn, adversely affected modern translations.
Injection of Roman\Greek concepts such as the immortality of the soul into the Bible. Adam was removed from the garden lest he eat from the tree of life. He was not immortal.
Bondage to the traditions and teachings of men rather than allowing the Spirit of Truth to lead us into all truth. (John 16:13)
Laziness.
A hidden desire in many of us to have our enemies get what we feel they deserve while we get off free and clear. (Luke 9:51-56)
The desire of religious and government leaders to use fear to maintain control. Love cannot be perfected with fear, therefore, the church has few members whose love is perfected. Perfect love casts out fear! (1 John 4:18)
Satan's power and authority to deceive.
Failure to see that "Love never fails," (1Cor. 13:8) His "mercy endures forever," (1 Chron. 16:41) and "mercy triumphs over judgment." (James 2:13)
12. Idolatry; we project our concepts of what God should be like into our reading of the Scriptures.
13. Unbelief; Jesus asked if there would be faith in the earth at His return. The Bible says He is the Savior of the whole world, yet most Christians don't believe it.
14. God chose to save the best “good news” for the end of time hiding this glorious truth from most Christians revealing it only to a “remnant.” For those of you who do not believe there are Bible translation errors, here are a few of hundreds of examples. The King James Bible has Jonah crying from the "belly of hell" while the New King James and others has him crying from "Sheol." (Jonah 2:2) The KJV has Jonah there "forever" while Young's Literal Translation has him there "to the age." (Jonah 2:6) The KJV talks about the "end of the world" in Matthew 24:3, while the New International Version and the New American Standard talk about the "end of the age." Within the King James Bible itself there are many contradictions. A few examples should cause further study. Matt. 24:3 speaks about an "end of the world" while Ephesians 3:21 and Isaiah 45:17 talk about the "world without end." We have "everlasting hills" in Genesis 49:26 and Deuteronomy 33:15 which don't seem to be "everlasting" according to Isaiah 40:4 and 2 Peter 3:10. God would dwell in Solomon's temple "forever" yet Solomon's temple has long been destroyed. The Aaronic priesthood was an "everlasting" priesthood according to Exodus 40:15 and Numbers 25:13, yet the book of Hebrews makes it abundantly clear this priesthood would be replace by the Melchizedek priesthood. (Hebrews 7:14-18) The Mosaic covenant was "everlasting" while Hebrews 8:7-13 speaks of the end of that very covenant. Review the 14 listed reasons. Somewhere in this list are the reasons why some people cannot see what is plainly written. "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all mankind unto myself." (John 12:32)
Yes I did, I think.......................................... A bunch of BS .................................................. ....
You know we believe in the KJV 1611 Bible and only the KJV 1611 Bible. All others are translations by heretics. Come on, you used to be a non-invasive zombie, now you have open sores and the pus is getting on everything.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
Shouldn't you believe in the original language more than the English??
God speaks American English. Prove me wrong if you doubt it.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
I can't believe you would even ask such a stupid question. God created all of the languages, so obviously he's fluent in all of them. Why do you think he picked English for the King James Bible?
American English could not have existed before 1776. What did He speak before that?
Who discovered America and when?
When was the Declaration of Independence signed?
As Brother Nobar has been noticing you are falling.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

For a while, I've been telling people how bad it is up here in New Jersey, but I think this drives that point home. Look at the deviance I'm surrounded by up here!
