There is only ""one"" sin that will send you to hell.

[kjw47]

There is only ""one"" sin that will send you to hell. The only sin that will send you to hell is the sin of rejecting God and God's love and forgivness!!!

Its always nice to see one knows their need of spirituality, like you Mr GISMYS, You have zeal, I will give you that.
You say only one sin will as you say go to hell( actually just the grave)--but Gods word teaches this--- 1 Corinthians 6:9-11---Galations 5:19-21--- both places state----WILL NOT ENTER GODS KINGDOM--- they are lists of unacceptable sins one cannot do. 99% do them regularly.

 

[GISMYS]

HELL IS VERY REAL!!! For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment; 5 and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6 and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men 8 (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds), 9 then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment, 10 and especially those who [c]indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires and despise authority. 2 peter 2:4-10

Really? Only one? So, do you think Adolf is up there waiting to greet you at the Pearly Gates?

Only a tool and fool for satan would think hitler was a believer in Jesus(A JEW) as his lord and savior. TRY TO THINK!

He was...and he said so frequently.

ROFLMAO!!! TALK IS CHEAP!!!Anyone can say anything,do you believe them??

Actually, the one sin is excessive masterbation


But ....What the hell

Define "excessive".....

So i guess the 10 commandments are all bullshit....

good to know.

The 10 commandments are law, and the law is perfect in every way. Humans are not and as such we are dead in the law. This is why Christians are called borne again, because we were dead in sin (because of the law) but we were borne again in Christ. See ? Borne again Christian. The OP of this thread as well intentioned as he may be needs to go back and do some praying and reading. I suggest he start with Matthew and read all the way through to Romans. Good stuff that any Christian trying to spread the good news may need to consider before posting such things as they did. Oh, and I forgot, all sin is sin. Period. None are greater then any other except taking the lords name in vane. That's backed by scripture. Anyway, have a good one all.

Fortunately, here in America at least, Civil Law trumps Religious Law, and Civil Law is getting closer and closer to reasonable with every passing century.

Life Rocks!! ​

This is very true. It even says as much in the bible. Paul writes about it allot. As for biblical law, specifically the ten commandments, they are truly perfect in every way. If we could keep them, all would be well. But we can't, (and I'm speaking from a Christian point of view so you know. I'm not soapboxing or talking down to you or anyone) So with the law (Biblical) being death, because humans can't keep them, Jesus is life because he once and for all paid the bill demanded by the law. This stuff is not supposed to have one cowering in a corner, is ment to be uplifting. That's why one commandment trumps all ten. That commandment is to love. That one law is perfect in every way. The first post in this thread I think might have come from a good place and from a new believer. But the message and presentation is wrong and quoting old testament prophets out of context don't help any. Dude needs to go back and read more.

The one sin from which there is no forgiveness, is "hypocrisy".

 

[earlycuyler]

The one sin from which there is no forgiveness, is "hypocrisy".

I agree. On I45 south there is a porn shop. 20 miles up the road the church. On any given day a members car can be found parked in back behind the store. So many in the congregation come in nursing hang overs. Many cheat on their husband's and wives. So much stuff. These don't act like the "salt of the earth" or " lamps for all to see". They act like convicts convicted by the law.

Reality Mr GISMYS---- Sheol( Hebrew= grave---Hades-greek = grave--- There is no literal hell Mr Gismys---Only a sadist would create a literal hell---God is love---do you know him?

 

[The Irish Ram]

I think we are confusing zeal with a defense mechanism. So, I guess I'd have to do 2 things. Convince Gismy to treat the people he's hoping to reach like precious cargo.
A good shepherd feeds his sheep on loving kindness and tenderness, while he guides them. His rod and staff are used to defend the sheep, not to punish the sheep with.

And yet I am reminded of all the ways John the Baptist could have conveyed his message to the King, instead of screaming it from the bowels of the dungeon, and God never silenced him once. I love zeal.
But I do believe that a combination of zeal and brotherly love, trumps zeal and force if one is looking to impart wisdom and understanding.

But love is a two way street.
I think Gis would be tempted to tear down the defensive wall that he stands behind to throw rocks, if it wasn't also necessary to prevent him from being hit by so many rocks.

Maybe the scripture that works the best for all of us would be:

Proverbs 15: 1- 2
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
He that has knowledge, is to use it aright, for the good of others.

My Dad would tell Gis, that you catch more bees with honey...........
and he'd tell the rest of us to be nice.

Time is far far too short to baby those blinded by satan and used as his tools and played for fools!!

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
New King James Version (NKJV)
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

A+ for that verse. It pretty much sums up what we are here to learn. How to treat everyone 101. And it's a hard lesson. And it isn't religion. It is Jesus Christ chicken soup for you, <the soul.
It is training that will last and serve us well for an entire eternal lifetime. It is the guide for determining if you are a loving person. (Christ-like) If you pass the test here, you will be as kind in those other worlds Christ mentioned.

Oh and Gis, If we are to be Christ-like, what good would Christ have done if He only appealed to the well? If He felt that way, the blind would have stayed blind. And He knew exactly how short His time was......
Those babies are your brothers and sisters. :hugs:

The words of JESUS====“What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you shut the door of the Kingdom of Heaven in people’s faces. You won’t go in yourselves, and you don’t let others enter either.

15 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you cross land and sea to make one convert, and then you turn that person into twice the child of hell you yourselves are!

16 “Blind guides! What sorrow awaits you! For you say that it means nothing to swear ‘by God’s Temple,’ but that it is binding to swear ‘by the gold in the Temple.’ 17 Blind fools! Which is more important—the gold or the Temple that makes the gold sacred? 18 And you say that to swear ‘by the altar’ is not binding, but to swear ‘by the gifts on the altar’ is binding. 19 How blind! For which is more important—the gift on the altar or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 When you swear ‘by the altar,’ you are swearing by it and by everything on it. 21 And when you swear ‘by the Temple,’ you are swearing by it and by God, who lives in it. 22 And when you swear ‘by heaven,’ you are swearing by the throne of God and by God, who sits on the throne.

23 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law—justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things. 24 Blind guides! You strain your water so you won’t accidentally swallow a gnat, but you swallow a camel!

25 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy—full of greed and self-indulgence! 26 You blind Pharisee! First wash the inside of the cup and the dish, and then the outside will become clean, too.

27 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs—beautiful on the outside but filled on the inside with dead people’s bones and all sorts of impurity. 28 Outwardly you look like righteous people, but inwardly your hearts are filled with hypocrisy and lawlessness.

29 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you build tombs for the prophets your ancestors killed, and you decorate the monuments of the godly people your ancestors destroyed. 30 Then you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would never have joined them in killing the prophets.’

31 “But in saying that, you testify against yourselves that you are indeed the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Go ahead and finish what your ancestors started. 33 Snakes! Sons of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell?

Because I would never worship or respect a deity so twisted and monsterous that he would burn even the worst of humans in eternal hellfire.

[The Irish Ram]

Hell is very real. It was created for Satan and the 1/3 of the angels that aligned themselves with Satan at the revolt in Heaven. There is one spirit that is so demonic and powerful and so deadly, that he has been chained in a special chamber of hell since his fall because man is powerless against Him and all would perish if he wasn't restrained. It is where Satan and the fallen angels will be restrained during the Millennial reign of Christ following WW3.

Hell is a necessary physical literal place that has been witnessed by the souls that returned from Abraham's Bosom with Christ. They described it. They talked to the people/souls in it. And it is not the final destination of those who choose not to accept the gift of salvation. It is an unpleasant holding cell for the souls who did not choose pardon and instead died with their sins attached. Those that will be judged at the White Throne Judgment 1,000 years after Jesus returns to end the battle of Armageddon.

It is what Christ is trying His best to save us from.
Just like our souls, which are in spirit form encased in a terrestrial vessel, those Satanic spirits never cease to exist either. Spirits are eternal. Christ is coming back to restrain Satan, but He doesn't kill him off. At the White Throne judgment Satan, and those of who chose Satan as their Father, are sentenced to eternity in a lake not unlike the bottom of a volcano. The eternity of their choosing.

Choose Christ. He's way more fun.
