that someone of the same belief system as you would say something like:
Just because you do not like the sound of it, does not mean it will not occur. Yeshoua has spoken! In my paradise I shall be granted every pleasure, every desire, for only admitting his existence! What have you got to lose? Repent! Accept Christ! Love Him! Follow Him! Then you too shall live forever and dine on the flesh of thine enemies!
Hail Jesus!
Most christians don't really think they'll dine on flesh in heaven do they?? and would that really be your wish or desire??

Whoever the person was who said that, does not have the same belief system as I do (Christian).
"dine on the flesh of enemies" they were just probably using as an idiom to mean that we will have the victory - at least thats all I can think of;
The Biblical fact is that when Christ returns,
we will ALL be changed instantly into our spiritual bodies, and these flesh bodies will be the dinner of many a scavenger bird.
Thats who will be dining on flesh. Not the Christians who overcome.
The spiritual body cannot digest flesh, so that would certainly be a problem, now wouldn't it??
Just because someone says they are a "christian" does not mean they know the Word of God, esspecially if they go to many of the larger churches of today.....who teach absolutely nothing.

Yes, I am a christian, and to some degree embarrased, but only a little. Because a true Christian doesnt show hate and stuff at the others. If someone is cruel, and insulting to a non christian, they arent christian at all. they only know of Jesus, know truly know Him.
You are correct that we must repent, accpet Jesus and love Him enough to follow Him, to obey Him. That is Christianity. Just saying you love Him isnt enough, or that you supposedly know Him. The devil knows Him too. so what? ITs loving Jesus, trusting Him, knowing He knows best, and following His example in every way, seeking only to be more like Him and knowing the ony way you can do that is with his help. Blessings come frm obedience. Disobedience leads to curse. ITs all our choice to obey or ignore the teachings Of Jesus. When we do, we can live forever, you are correct, and its a beautiful place, no more sorrow or pain. And, we will be glad sin has ended and we are now in paradise, but we wont rejoice over the deaths of the lost. We willl weep with God for them, but will celebrate that all sin is gone.
We wont be dinning on the flesh and blood of the sinners. How lucidrous. If one thinks they would enjoy that, let me say they wont be in Heaven. Heaven is pure joy. Hatred wont be there. If you are hating and non forgiving and enjoying eating the flesh of the lost, you wont be in heaven. There is no hate there. Only those that love and forgive, with good hearts, that are knd, and obediene to the Lord will be in Heaven. So, pppl that arent believers, please know a true Christian didnt say this stuff. either an athiest wrote it, or a person that believes they are Christian, and wearing the label, but truly dont know GOD yet. He is a God of love, and because He is a God of love, He will one day end all sin and sinners will be lost, or the rest of us couldnt have Heaven with NO Sin, So when someone is lost, its because they chose that, and leave God no choice but to keep them out of Heaven, so dont blame God. We each have the same right to make our choice. and when we choose God, we are blessed. When we choose against God, we will be lost. But, no true Christian will be celebratng your horrific ending. Thats why we cry for you now and pray for you, and try to talk to you, even when you reject us and mock us and call us names. we love you enough To keep trying even when YOU hate us.

This doesn't embarrass me because I've always said, "there are no arguments between christians: there is only what the bible says and what we say." The bible does not say that we will be granted pleasure and desire. It says that heaven will be a place of rest. This person seems to be influenced by Islamic teachings rather than relying on the bible alone. Nothing could embarass me. My security is in Christ alone.

That is totally outrageous! Whoever believes that does not see that that would turn someone away before it would draw a person to Christ! It takes a quiet but loving life to show others that you care about them for them to be interested. If they can't see through your life that you are a kind person and they would like to be around you then why even tell people you are a christian! It takes a lot of patience and humility to keep strong to show others about Jesus. I am ashamed of those words. They totally put me off. If I were not a Christian there is no way I would become one through that statement.

Hi,
You'll read in the new Testament that Jesus said" Not all those saying Lord Lord will enter in to the Kingdom of Heaven" They will say to Jesus, didn't we speak in your name, and do many powerful works in your name? Then Jesus will turn to them and say " I never knew you you workers of iniquity" That means that some professed Christians will not make it into God's Kingdom. Not all professed Christians are really Christians, so don't believe it until you look it up in the Bible for yourself. Besides, what do you have to loose!?

Yes, it embarasses me. It embarasses me that someone would say that to you in an effort to make you want to become a Christian. Jesus wouldn't want that. God gives us so much happiness so that we won't need the pleasures of the flesh, God will be enough.
Please don't think that every Christian is that way. We're not.

No we won't dine on flesh in heaven. That's not my wish or desire. The only thing we know for sure that will be in Heaven as far as food goes is manna. Which according to the Israelites was like bread.

It's a figure of speech take from the Old Testament. If you have questions regarding the Old Testament, maybe you should not only ask Christians... as it applies to Judaism and Islam as well. See what they have to say as well.
Also, admitting to the excistance of God is not good enought to go to heaven. Even Satan will admit to that.

People love coming on the internet and try out their acting abilities or lack there of.
