I ve Decided to Torment You Again

The Truth nearly Hell Burn down and the True Sabbath Day!

Today, my friends, many people who love Jesus Christ are sadly following traditional Christian dogma which does non take a house foundation in the Bible. Have yous always wondered how a God who is Honey would send people to hell to burn forever and ever? Fifty-fifty after 1 billion years of torment in hell, even Hitler would have his due. But, according to traditional Christian dogma, his torment is just get-go. Have you ever pressed your pastor as to why you attend church on Lord's day instead of the Bible Sabbath twenty-four hours (Saturday)? Friend, we are going to find out answers to these questions right now.

Before we start our study of Bible truths, please ask God to send the Holy Spirit downwardly into your eye before you go on. Later on all, without the Holy Spirit we tin can not understand "spiritual" things. Come across ane Cor 2:14.

Hell-Fire A twisted Truth Untangled

i. Penalization later Judgment. Most churches believe that equally soon as a person dies, they go to heaven or hell. This is a major mistake, and not found in the Bible. The unsaved exercise non go to whatsoever place of punishment as shortly as they die, only are reserved in the grave until the day of judgment to be punished. Christ explicitly taught this truth in the well-know the parable of the wheat and the tares. After the householder had sown the wheat in the field his servant came to report that tares were growing amidst the grain. His question was whether he should pull up the weeds while they were notwithstanding very small. The householder'south answer was, "Nay; lest while ye gather upwards the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both abound together until the harvest: and in the fourth dimension of the harvest I volition say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn down them; but assemble the wheat into my befouled. Matthew 13:29,30. Now follow the words of Christ as he explains the meaning of the parable: "He that soweth the practiced seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the skilful seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked i; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the terminate of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the burn down; so shall it be in the end of this earth. The Son of man shall send along his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: and there shall exist wailing and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 13:37-43. The meaning of this parable is so clear that a child can sympathise it.

Now plough with me to 2 Peter ii:9, it reads, "The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the solar day of judgment to be punished." Once more quite clear when the penalisation takes identify.

Next permit us look at Revelation 22:12, it says, "And behold, I come up speedily; and my reward is with me to give every human being co-ordinate as his work shall be." Very clear as to when we shall receive our advantage. For fifty-fifty more proof of when we receive our rewards, read John 5:28,29 and Matt. 16:27.

Wicked will not fire in hell forever and ever

Turn with me to John 3:sixteen, "For God then loved the world, that he gave his simply begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should non perish, simply have ever-lasting life." Those who don't believe in Jesus will perish, not burn down in hell forever. Now plow with me and read Romans vi:23, "For the wages of sin is death' but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Please don't miss the pointed simplicity of these verses. The wicked are never promised life. They are promised expiry-eternal decease. Only the righteous are promised life--eternal life. Merely there is only i mode to get life without end, and that is through faith in Jesus. John describes it this way: "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of god hath not life." 1 John v:11, 12. Let me ask you a question: Practise those wicked ones in the lake of fire have the Son of God? Of course not! So how could they have life? John says, "Ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him." one John iii:15. Will those murderers in hell-fire continue to take life for eternity? Never!! It would be the rankest heresy to believe that eternal life could exist obtained from some other source than Jesus. Where would the wicked get it from? Paul declares that Jesus Christ "hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel." ii Timothy ane:x. Inspiration reveals no other source of immortality except through the gospel of Christ. Where is a text in the Bible which describes the conferring of immortality upon the wicked? There is none!!!!! Those of us who believe in Christ do non become to heaven correct after nosotros die either, see 1 Corinthians 15:51-53 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17.

The Penalty of the wicked

The Bible apparently tells us what the penalisation of the wicked is. Turn with me to 2 Thessalonians 1:ix, "Who shall exist punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power." Quite plainly and quite clear! The wicked will be punished with everlasting destruction, not hell for all eternity. Psalms 92:7 says "When the wicked spring every bit the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall exist destroyed for e'er!" Psalms 104:35 says, Allow the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless k the Lord, O my soul. Praise ye the Lord." Quite clear once more, the Bible is always clear when you let information technology to explain itself.

Some common Questions raised past those who believe in the eternal torment of the wicked, answered.

What almost the expressions "eternal" and "everlasting" which are used to draw the fires of hell? there is absolutely no defoliation or contradiction when we allow the Bible to supply its ain definition of terms. Many make the error of applying modernistic definitions to those biblical words without reference to their ancient contextual usage. This violates one of the most fundamental rules of estimation. The fact is that eternal fire does not hateful a burn that will never become out. The aforementioned expression is used in Jude 7 concerning the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha. "Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities virtually them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication and going after strange mankind, are fix forth every bit an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire." It is quite obvious that Sodom is non still burning today. The Dead Body of water rolls over the place where those ancient cities once stood.

Perhaps the most easily misconstrued text about hell is John'south allusion to the smoke ascending "for always and ever." For those who are unfamiliar with other uses of this phrase in the Bible, it can exist very confusing indeed. But a comparing of the verses in both Old and New Testaments reveal the words "for ever" are used 57 times in the Bible in reference to something that has already come up to an terminate. In other words, "for ever" does non ever mean "without end." View Jonah 2:half dozen, 1 Samuel 1:22 and Exodus 21:6 for a few examples of this.

Someone may object that this could also limit the life of the righteous in heaven, because they are described as glorifying God forever. The terms are the aforementioned for both saved and the lost. But there is 1 tremendous difference in the circumstances involved. The saints have received the gift of immortality. Their life at present measures with the life of God. Immortality means "not subject to death." The words "for ever" used in reference to them could but mean "without end," considering they are immortal subjects already. Just when "for ever" is used to depict the wicked, we are talking about mortal creatures who can die and must die. Their "for always" is but as long as their mortal nature can survive in the fire which punishes them according to their works.

The True Bible Sabbath

The Sabbath day was made at creation. In Gen. two:two it says that "and on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the SEVENTH DAY from all his work which he had fabricated. And God blessed the seventh solar day, and sanctified information technology: because that in information technology he had rested from all his work which God created and made." Note: Sanctify means to set up autonomously as holy for a holy purpose consecrate. Notation: God rested on the 7th twenty-four hour period, not because he needed rest, but to gear up an example for us. God knew that we would need a day set up aside from our hard work in which to rest, worship Him, and to gain spiritual force. The Sabbath was created to be a blessing and a joy to human. "The Sabbath was created for man." Mark ii:27.

The Sabbath is a memorial to creation. Ex. 20:8-11 says "Call back the Sabbath day to go on it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work. Just the seventh 24-hour interval is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: In it grand shalt non practice any piece of work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy girl, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates. For in six days the Lord made heaven and world, the ocean, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it." Notation: The Lord blessed and hallowed the seventh 24-hour interval Sabbath.

Some of you might be wondering what day is the seventh day? Simply accept a dictionary out and await upwards what day is the seventh day of the week and which day is the first mean solar day of the week. Saturday: The seventh day of the calendar week. Sunday: the first twenty-four hours of the week.

1 Peter 2:21 says we should follow the example of Christ and He kept the Sabbath!! see Luke iv:16. Jesus said that the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath, In Luke 6:5, Marker two:28, and in Matt. 12:eight, three times information technology is recorded in the gospels! I judge God really wanted to get out us with how important the Sabbath really was to him. Later all, it is the only commandment that starts with "Call up" and Jesus is also recorded three times in the Bible as maxim he is "Lord of the Sabbath" I call up God knew we would forget the Sabbath day and fifty-fifty with all these reminders in the Bible, it is distressing to say that many take "forgotten" the Sabbath.

The disciples profoundly respected the Sabbath. This was evident at the time of Christ's decease. When the Sabbath arrived, they interrupted their burying preparations and rested the Sabbath according to the commandment, with plans to go along this piece of work on Sunday, "the first day of the week." Luke 23:56, 24:1 As had Christ, the apostles worshiped on the 7th-twenty-four hour period Sabbath. In his evangelistic travels Paul attended the synagogue on the Sabbath and preached Christ, Acts, thirteen:xiv, 17:1(notice it was Paul's custom to worship on the Sabbath twenty-four hours too! 18:4. Fifty-fifty the gentiles invited him to preach the discussion of God on the Sabbath. Acts 13:42. John was in vision on the "Sun" in Rev.1:10 which is the Sabbath day. See Mark two:28 and Isa. 58:13.

I will offer $one thousand to anyone who can prove me one text that says the Sabbath solar day was changed from Saturday to Sunday! Distressing, but in that location is not one! Let's discover out the existent reason why the Sabbath twenty-four hours was inverse to Sunday.

In his all-time-seller, the faith of millions (1974) The Roman Cosmic scholar John A O'Brina came to this compelling conclusion: "Since Sat, not Sunday is specified in the Bible, isn't it curious that non-Catholics who profess to take their religion directly from the Bible and not from the church building, observe Lord's day instead of Saturday? Aye, of course it is INCONSISTENT. THE CUSTOM OF Sunday OBSERVANCE REMAINS AS A REMINDER OF THE MOTHER CHURCH FROM WHICH THE NON-CATHOLICS Broke AWAY-FROM HOME Simply SILL CARRYING IN HIS POCKET A Flick OF HIS Mother OR LOCK OF HER Pilus!" There are plenty of other Catholic statements which say the aforementioned affair too. "If you wait to the Bible as an dominance for the observance of the twenty-four hour period, you will not observe it. It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Methodist, Baptists and all other Christians that the BIBLE DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS. THE SEVENTH Day ADVENTISTS ARE THE Only ONES WHO PROPERLY Employ THE TERM "SABBATH" Considering THEY Find THE SEVENTH DAY (Sat) Every bit THE BIBLE COMMANDS." (Clifton Tracts, vol IVp. 15).

Do other churches admit this besides? Yes they do listen to this statement, "Where can the tape of such a transaction be found? Not in the New Testament, admittedly non!! There is no such scriptural evidence of the change of the Sabbath institution from the seventh day to the kickoff twenty-four hours of the week!! Dr. Edward Hiscox, author of the Baptist manual, from the New York Examiner, Nov 16.1890).

Some Questions about the Sabbath answered

Acts xx:7. Some people think this was a Dominicus "church" service, the Nib describes this event this style, "On the Sabbatum nighttime in our assembly for the breaking of bread, Paul who was to leave the next day, addressed them and went on speaking until midnight." This coming together was on the dark office of the first day of the week. In both the Onetime and New Testaments we notice that time was reckoned from dusk to dusk. So this meeting was on our Saturday nighttime. All these people were doing is getting together to eat and wish Paul skilful farewell as he took off the next day.

What near Col ii:sixteen? Paul was talking about not the Sabbath in the 4th commandment of God's law, but ceremonial Sabbaths were what Paul was talking virtually. Were there e'er ceremonial Sabbaths, besides the Sabbath of the Lord they God the 4th commandment? Yes, at that place were. Turn to Lev. 23:3, information technology says "6 days shall work be done: but the 7th Day is the Sabbath of Rest, an holy convocation; ye shall exercise no work therein: it is the Sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings."

Now turn with me to Lev 23:24, "speak unto the children of Israel saying, in the seventh calendar month, in the kickoff day of the month shall ye take a Sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation." NOTE This is not the Seventh day Sabbath, this is another course of Sabbath, a formalism Sabbath.

Lev. 23:27 "Likewise on the tenth day of this 7th month there shall be a day of atonement; it shall be an holy convocation unto y'all; and ye shall agonize your souls, and offer an offer made by burn down unto the Lord."

Lev. 23:32 "It shall be unto y'all a Sabbath of residual, and ye shall afflict your souls; in the 9th 24-hour interval of the month only, at eve, from eve unto eve, shall ye celebrate your Sabbath."

Lev. 23:39 "Besides in the fifteenth twenty-four hour period of the seventh month, when ye accept gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord, seven days: on the first day shall be a Sabbath, and on the eight twenty-four hours shall be a Sabbath to Yous."

Observe these Sabbaths ARE Not THE SABBATH DAY OF THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT, WHICH GOD WROTE UPON A TABLE OF STONE SHOWING THE Immovability OF THE COMMANDMENTS. These "Sabbaths" are NOT THE Seventh DAY OF THE Week SABBATH, THESE ARE CEREMONIAL SABBATHS.

NOTE: In addition to the weekly Sabbath (Verses 3, 11, 15, and 16 of Lev. 23) there were other ceremonial Sabbaths that floated on the calendar and brutal on whatsoever day of the week. For instance, the 15 day of the 7th month might fall on a Tuesday this yr and on a Wednesday next twelvemonth.

Leviticus 23:37 helps us distinguish between them. It says; These are the feasts of the Lord, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offer fabricated past burn down unto the Lord, a burnt offer, and meat offer, a cede, and drink offerings every thing upon his solar day. (verse 38) Abreast THE SABBATHS OF THE LORD, AND BESIDE YOUR GIFTS, AND BESIDE ALL YOUR VOWS, AND BESIDE ALL YOUR FREEWILL OFFERINGS, WHICH YE Requite UNTO THE LORD. These feasts pointed forward to the coming messiah. When Jesus came they were fulfilled. Thus Paul in essence was saying. . ."do not allow anyone estimate yous by what y'all consume or potable or with regard to Sabbaths which are part of the sacrificial system and point frontward to the coming of Christ.

The Sabbath was made simply for the Jews!

This falsehood has gained such strength that multitudes of Christians refer to information technology as the "Jewish Sabbath." Only nowhere do we find such an expression in the Bible. It is called the "Sabbath of the Lord," simply never "the Sabbath of the Jews" Exodus 20:x. Christ clearly taught that "the Sabbath was made for man." Mark 2:27 The fact is that Adam was the simply homo in existence at the fourth dimension God made the Sabbath. There were no Jews in the world for at least 2000 years after cosmos. Information technology could never take been fabricated for them. Jesus used the term "homo" in the generic sense, referring to mankind. The same word is used in connexion with the institution of marriage which was introduced at creation. Adult female was fabricated for man and the Sabbath was for mankind. Certainly no one believes that marriage was made but for the Jews.

Romans 14:5,6

Romans 14:five, 6 reads, "Ane man considers one mean solar day more sacred than another; another homo considers every twenty-four hour period akin. Each one should exist fully convinced in his own mind. He who regards one twenty-four hours as special does so to the Lord. He who eats meat, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains, does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God." Permit'south discover first what the text does not say. Two questions will aid in our analysis. Does the text say anything near the Sabbath? does it say anything most worship? Conspicuously the answers are no!

The text is quite manifestly. Information technology says one man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Paul is writing most how man exalts ane solar day higher up another. The Sabbath is the control of God, not any man's personal judge of a twenty-four hour period. Therefore, Paul is obviously discussing a matter of human opinion rather than a divine command written with the finger of God on tables of rock. The start verse of the affiliate gives us the fundamental. Paul writes: "Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters." (Romans 14:i) Paul is writing to those who are weak in the faith. He advises the strong in faith to refrain from passing judgment on "disputable matters" or matter of opinion. One of these matters of opinion was the appropriateness of eating meat offered to idols. (Please see ane Corinthians viii) Paul's master concern is about individuals who split the church building over matters of human being opinion, not matters of divine law. Recall how vigorously he affirmed:. . ."so then, the law is holy and the commandments is holy, righteous and good." Romans 7:12. He states conspicuously, "through the law nosotros become conscious of sin." Romans iii:20. Then he adds in Romans seven:7 "Practice we so nullify the police force past this faith? God prevent! Rather, nosotros uphold the police force! Romans 3:31) Notice Romans chapter fourteen talks about matters that are "disputable" and the Sabbath solar day is not ane of them!

My friends Jesus said if you love me proceed my commandments. Are you lot willing to follow Jesus? If so ask him to requite you the courage and strength to do what is right and follow him!
