There is nothing as saving. Everyone must face the consequences of their sins. That is law of God.
God never bothers whether people believe in him or not. God's direct intervention in individuals' affairs is very rare. God doesn't watch each and every human being at the same time and cannot live with each and everyone to guide them. These works are done by the spirits. God had created different kinds of spirits for various purposes. He had made the spirits to watch, guide and determine the destiny of the human beings from their daily activities, talks and thoughts too. Your past determines your present and your present determines your future. God has given freewill to all creatures including human beings. According to this, all human beings have all right to live a life as they wish. But if it happens to be bad and hurts someone, they have to face the consequences. These consequences are created by spirits. It's a natural system. After death no one lives in any form. Heaven and hell are only for spirits, not for human beings. God is a mystery even to the spirits. Spirits are not eternal beings but their lifetime is long. Spirits are separate elements. A human being during his/her lifetime is living with many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. They are knowledge, skills, feelings, emotions, instincts, interests and everything. Further there will be always some spirits with you on behalf of your parents, friends, relatives and Gods you believe. Only these spirits make you remember them in a certain situations. All of these spirits are your consciousnesses and memories. Even thoughts are not your own. For example, when you want to take a decision on a subject, one after another the spirits think and you just listen, choose or reject the ideas which they transmit to your mind through your brain in the form of thoughts. A mind is a group/formation of many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. A mind is just like a computer's mind. After the computer is completely destroyed you will not get its mind. The same is the case with the human beings. A brain is a device used by the spirits to control the body and mind. (A senior spirit or a chief can control other spirits) A human being doesn't have a spiritual body. Soul is an energy needed for the functionality of a body. It is not a spirit or anything else. A body's functionality is based on the auto mechanism. After death all spirits which accompanied a person quit and go to different places searching new bodies. No one lives after death in any form. All human beings are just robots made of flesh and bones and toys of the spirits for their games.
The Puritans believed that God had chosen certain people to go to heaven or hell.
No we do not believe in purgatory, but we do believe in hell. We believe that when a person dies they remain in a temporary sleep until the second coming of Jesus. Heaven and Hell comes after the eternal judgment at the end of time
No. People in hell will already be physically dead. I think hell will be hell because in this place people are separated from God.
No.But if you don't except the Lord as your love and savior you will go to hell.The reason people go to hell is not having received Christ as Savior and Lord and not having their sins forgiven. According to the Bible, ANY unforgiven sin can take you to hell, no matter what particular sin it is. But you can ask Jesus to save you and forgive you, and you can repent (turn away) from your sins and then you won't have to go to hell.
Jesus will come and He will use the Word to destroy it. And it will be sentenced to in the Fiery Pit Of Hell where it will spend eternity along with all it's descendants[ people who don't believe in God and it's angels] only 144,000 virgin jews will be saved, everyone else alive will die and go to hell with the devil. revelation 14:3
According to the Bible, when a person dies they simply return "to dust" a.k.a. break down to the bare elements they were created from and cease to exist. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) During this process, the person is completely unconscious, completely unaware of what's happening. (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6 & 10) Jesus had compared it to sleep. (John 11:11 & 14) Simply put, death is the opposite of life, so when a person dies they're not alive. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)
You might be given hell by overly religious Christians, but no, you won't go to Hell if you don't go to Church. Even not reading the Bible won't make you go to Hell. Jesus Christ saved you. Not going to church, and not reading the Bible. Follow Jesus Christ, not a Christian religion.
Then in that case not a single person would be saved, and we all would go to hell.
A:Jesus is called the Saviour because people believethere is a hell to be saved from. Whether or not there really is a a hell becomes irrelevant as long as there are people who believe there is, and believe that Jesus can save them from hell.
His death on the cross an shedding of blood washes our sins so we don't have to go to hell and get to go to Heaven if your saved.
Jesus Christ died for you on the cross. So you didn't have to go to HELL. A place where you burn for eternity. Now shouldn't you be thankful for that?
Some common questions people have about hell include: What is hell like? Who goes to hell? Is hell eternal? Can people be saved from hell?
yes i just heard a testimony about that not long ago. prayers can go a long way
I am a christian and it's our belief but you go to heaven if you are saved by god which you can do by getting baptized or just saying a special prayer which is what i did and there is a hell for people that are mean and cruel to other people and dont get saved but in heaven you live forever you dont have to agree with me but thats a christians belief
That depends... If they believe in Jesus, they will not go to Hell. Some parts of God's word are guidelines, that God KNOWS that none of us will ever be able to follow. If they don't follow any parts of God's word (as in, they think it's all crap) they will go to Hell, because they are not saved by Jesus.
Anyone who rejects the Catholic Church will go to hell because the Catholic Church is necessary for salvation. However, if someone is innocently ignorant of the Catholic Church and its necessity, they may be saved if they cooperate with whatever grace they have. If they are, it will only be through Christ and His Church.
no, the spirit does not reside there. once a person is dead, the spirit goes back to the Lord if the soul is saved or go to hell if it is not.
