If He says to us that He will complete what He has begun in us then why?

Question

Do we preach to eachother that if we fail as christians and we die we will go to hell? Where in the bible does it say that believers in Christ go to hell?
The Lord has made some very clear statements in the Book of Matthew regarding his servants who are unfaithful or slothful and untransformed as being cast into the outer darkness.
This place is different from Hell as we can see in the bible. The weeping and gnashing of teeth can confuse us into thinking that it is the same as hell. But it is clearly not.
Can some please share regarding this matter in the word. If there are some scriptural references to strengthen the points brought foward, it would be very much appreciated:)

References regarding the outer darkness are in
Matthew 8:12; 22:13; 25:30

Answer 1

Good evening Sandy.

I am not totally clear on your question , but I will try to answer as best as I can.

I do believe that Hell fire will occur at the end of the millenium. Revelation 20. This fire is being prepared for the wicked. The righteous will already be in the New Jerusalem(City of peace). The righteous according to revelation will participate in the judgement of the wicked, in so far as reviewing the books.

The final executive phase of God's judgement will destroy all the wicked once and for all. This destruction is called God's strange act.

Nahum 1:9 declares that Sin will not raise up a second time. Sin shall be no more.

I hope this helps.

Take care Sandy.

With God there is no middle ground. It's either Heaven or Hell.
That Outer Darkness is Hell. Hell is not divided. It's a place...and only one place. If you read the book "A Divine Revelation of Hell." You'll see what I mean as in there are different parts of hell where some things are kept. (Like Fallen Angel) People there that were believers and went astray? Were burning in there with the other people who were sinners. Why should judgment be any different in the end? He said he who is not with me (I think He meant totally with him) is against me. And He does not gather with me...scatters. (Matt. 12:30)(Luke11:23)
And since He's no respecter of persons...(Acts 10:34)I don't really think He would change when it comes to that. (Heb. 13:8)

But really you should check out that book. It's a really good book. And it gives a thorough description of Hell..nothing out of context with the word. And this was her actual experience.

Those who do not know cannot die eternally. Those who do know are in more danger.

Once one has eaten the flesh (logos) and the blood (the holy spirit) of Jesus, one has put on eternal clothing: One such person shall never choose selfishness. Those whom do not graduate by giving all they own to God, lack the resurrection and remain unjoined with the Holy Spirit. Their logos dies with the body and thus their soul returns after death as replanted partially grown seed. Such a soul returns to suffer mortal life in which they must research for the lost logos and also seek further words from the lord, so that they may grow their soul to maturity.

By faith Abraham, when he was tested. Abraham offered up Isaac to God as sacrifice. Abraham gave God everything which was dear to him, thereby offering to God all his earthly possesions (as Jesus offered his own body for sacrifice). In both cases God accepted Jesus and Abraham as his sons, and wrote them into the book of life with the gift of eternal clothing. As Jesus was already God's son, Jesus' motive is to show others the way.

Those seeds that fall upon the stone never grow, and remain seeds. For the farmer will gather the seeds from the rocks and redistribute them into the soil. Just as a fisher man gathers only the large fish out of his net and throws the small one's back into the sea. Therefore know that those whom remain as seed will be reincarnated to take mortal birth once more, whence they may find the nurishment of the flesh and blood of Jesus.

Hell is living far from the light of God. There are degree's of Hell. The further one falls from God, the more suffering one has to suffer in order to ascend back to the father:

Answer 4

We don't preach that to believers..
There are only two places and no others Heaven or Hell, and no intermediate place.
Christians go to Heaven. Now what is a Christian is another question.
God will sort them all out in the end as he knows exactly who is his and who isn't..
