I would argue that all the unsaved on earth are in their paradise. Pedophiles for example have innocent children all around them. Earth is a hell for Christians and all good people.
Yes a living hell. (suffering)
 
In the story told at Luke 16:19-31, there's a rich man dead and buried (Luke
19:22) and there's the patriarch Abraham dead and buried. (Gen 25:9)

Well; the thing is: the rich man is able to see from his grave over to Abraham's
grave, and they are able to communicate from grave to grave. I am very curious
how Abraham's corpse, and the other guy's corpse, are able to communicate with
one another at all let alone through the ground like that.

There's also a pauper in the story who, when he passed away, was more than likely
disposed of in a city dump rather than given a decent burial yet there he is
apparently buried alongside Abraham in the very same grave.

And how is it that the rich man could see the pauper below ground when quite
possibly his remains were above ground in a dump.

I already suffer, it's called living.
(I am suicidal and on watch)

As a Christian you must not be suicidal.

It is key to trust in God. God tests His children and wants to build our faith in Him

Consider Elijah and the siege of Samaria by the Arameans in 2 Kings. If you read 2 Kings chapter 7, you will see that people were starving, but God delivered them just before they all started dying. Those that did not wait for His helping hand, did not see the deliverance, but died.

It is important to 1. Know that you are indeed a Christian 2 Cor 13:5 and then if you pass the test, 2. very important to live by faith in God.

He will never test us beyond what we can bear 1 Cor 10:13 and He will never leave nor forsake us Duet 31:6.

Be strong Aiden, praying for you!
 
Matt 5:29-30 . . If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it
away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to
be thrown into Hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it
away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to
go into Hell.

I've no doubt that numbers of folk down below right now would gladly give up a
hand and an eye if it would get them out of there; but where do we stop with this?
Until both eyes are gone and both hands, and both feet and both ears? And then a
lobotomy too?

One of the things to expect to find in Hell, is that a lot of people who went there, and are still there, were water baptized.

That's quite a surprise for them, as they were told that "water washed away their sin".

It didnt.

Another group of people, equally surprised to be there, those who think Jesus's righteous covers their continued sinful life style.
They were told Jesus's righteous covers all your sins, even the ones you never repent from. ( stop doing ).

Actually, its the Death of Christ, that is the "preaching of the Cross", which is the Blood Atonement, that is the New Covenant, that is WHY God has redeemed the born again from their sin.

See, if God does not deal with all your sin, through the Cross, then it'll never be dealt with, at all.

He has.

"Jesus is the ONE time.... ETERNAL sacrifice for SINS"

"eternal"... look that up..,. as that does not mean "some". or "temporary"..


The "Good news"....???

"Jesus came to save SINNERS", and He did..........and that is every born again Believer..
 
Hmmm some? So it means everything? Not at any definition I can find.


Jesus.

Is the.

ONE TIME (Thats the Cross)

Eternal (That means forever)

Sacrifice ( That is the Blood Atonement)

For SINS.... (Notice that is PLURAL......that means ALL.... = Eternal.
 
.. all existing sins, not all sins you continue to do in the future.

Heb 10:26; For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

Jude 1:4; For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

One time "eternal Sacrifice".

This is "redemption"..

This means that Christ has accomplished this.. for the born again..

= "God hath made Jesus , TO BE SIN ... for the born again".... as the 'one time Eternal Sacrifice".

This is why these verses explain it, in the NT.

2 Corinthians 5:19

John 3:17

(It amazes me sometimes the number of Christians that I encounter online who
sincerely believe that the rule quoted above, reiterated from Num 15:30-31,
applies to Christ's followers.)

The author of the letter to Hebrews utilized that rule to persuade Jews to look to
Christ's crucifixion for absolution relative to deliberate sins because the Levitical
system has no offerings for sins in that category. In other words: Christ is the final
option for scofflaws.

If it's in the Bible, I believe it. In case you weren't aware, Hebrews is in the New testament, not the old. There's a reason this is in the New testament.

Things didn't get much easier in the New Testament.

Acts 17:30; And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Acts 17:30; "Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent,

The things that God overlooked in the Old Testament, He is no longer willing to turn a blind eye too.

In the old testament, you couldn't commit adultery by physically sleeping a woman, under the New testament you can't even think about it. Which is harder?
In the old testament, you couldn't murder anyone, in the New Testament, you can't even hate anyone. Which is harder?

Christianity is a lethal religion. In some mysterious way that I don't quite
understand; it satisfies justice for Christ's believing followers by reckoning them
joint principals in his crucifixion.

Rom 6:3 . . Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into His death?

Rom 6:6 . . Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him

Gal 2:20 . . I am crucified with Christ

Col 3:3 . . For you died when Christ died

One of my chronic fears as a Roman Catholic was that something fatal would
happen to me in between confessions. Well; you can just imagine my relief at
discovering that people crucified with Christ are no longer in danger of
condemnation for breaking the Ten Commandments.

Rom 6:11 . . Count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

Rom 7:4 . . Do you not know, brothers that you died to the law through the body
of Christ

Gal 2:19 . . For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.

In quite a few Catholic minds, it is truly believed that a sinner's salvation rests upon
the grace of God; but in too many of those very same minds it's also truly believed
that it is by the grace of God that they now have a chance to earn their salvation,
where before, they had no chance to earn it. In a nutshell; that mentality insists
that Christ's crucifixion opened the doors of heaven, but Catholics have to climb
their way up to those doors by proving themselves worthy. They won't succeed
because the bar is set too high.

Rom 3:23. . For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God

In other words; God will accept nothing less than His own sinless perfection. I've
yet to meet a Catholic, or anybody else, measuring up to those standards.

1John 1:10 . . If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his
word is not in us.

The Holy Spirit uses water or blood to represent the pouring of of his labor of love called a work of his faithfulness the "let there be power" and it was "God golden good the testimony God spoke

According that kind of hell you offered I would expect they are not breathing the breath of life called oxygen. the alterntive. . limbo mixed with purgatory no end in sight, suffer wonder, suffer wonder ,


God cannot die he poured out His Holy Spirit unto death a sufferings as if it was literal blood working in jeapordy of his own Spirit life . He give us little he calls of little faith .He is t the storeroom he has a full barn of love
 
Folks on the wrong side of things in the afterlife should not get their hopes
up by expecting to be given a second chance.

2Cor 6:1-2 . . As God's fellow workers we urge you not to receive God's
grace in vain. For He says: In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the
day of salvation I helped you. I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now
is the day of salvation.

Heb 3:8 . .Today, if you hear His voice, do not stiffen your resolve.

As a case in point; the Pharaoh of Egypt was given ample opportunity to
comply with Moses' demands until the night when an angel came thru Egypt
slaying all the land's firstborn sons; even the firstborn among livestock.

Another case in point is the Flood when Noah warned of an impending
deluge year after year until the day came when all not aboard the ark were
slain; including moms, infants, and elder citizens.

Compare the parable of the ten maidens wherein five weren't thinking. They let
themselves be distracted with a trifle and by doing so missed the party.

FAQ: Are people really in Hell? They haven't been judged yet

REPLY: The fiery sector of Hades is apparently a sort of death row where folks in
line for execution in the lake of fire are held in custody till their day in court per
Rev 20:11-15.
