RE: Ashes Final doctrines that Divide/ Lynnmn

In respect to the originator of this post, Lynn, I totally disagree with many, MANY of your previous and continual posts. You have been told by a few of us, "Do not believe everything you see on the Internet." Yet you continue to post things, then turn around and give 'your opinion'.

According to the Holy Bible, (yes, it does matter which one is closest to it's original interpretation), King James Version and New King James Version are the top choices.

In both you find that Hell is a real place of fire and brimstone.
Heaven is a real place of eternity, eternal life with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (Please read Revelation 21].

AND Hell is definitely real, and lasts forever. NO, the fire does NOT go out, and YES, Satan is very much alive both now on earth causing terrible havoc. The Lord tells us Satan is the prince of the power of air. His time is almost up, where he will be thrown into the lake of fire, along with all those that have died and refused the Lord's 'free gift' of salvation. Every person on earth must make that decision for them self. "The soul that sins it shall die."

The fire spoken of in Hell, is not like a burning fire in chimneys or on a gas stove. It is more like an continual heat so intense, perhaps as an electric stove. IMO, others have different descriptions. But they come down to the eternal intense heat that NEVER goes out,(ie lake of burning sulfur).

Don't forget God is not inside our time-frame. He is Creator of all things. He never had a beginning nor will have an end.
However, Satan will be cast into the bottomless pit for 1,000 years (I believe you vaguely mentioned this).
Unbelievers stand before the Great White Throne Judgment seat of Christ. They will all go to eternal damnation. They have refused to accept the Jehovah God's Son, Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Everyone gets that choice, (opportunity). (See Romans 1:18--32)

Satan, is a spirit and very much alive! He is the spirit of the antichrist. "Satan comes across today as 'an angel of light', the Bible tells us. WHY? Trying to lead God's people astray. The same thing he did to Eve in the Garden of Eden. Lucifer (Satan), deceived Eve and Adam, telling them they will be as gods! Satan is and always has been a LIAR! "Satan is the father of lies."

Regarding your post referring to the rich man and Lazarus. (Luke 16:19-31), it never says this is a 'parable'. As several commentaries have indicated, other 'parables' start out by titling the message, 'The Parable of the ......'
This is a 'Teaching' by our Lord Jesus to warn us against going to Hell. Hell is mentioned more times in the Bible than Heaven. WHY? The Lord Jesus is warning us, 'Wake up and Come unto me....and I will give you life and that more abundantly."

And when the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of earth--Gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. ..... In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the City He loves. But fire came down from Heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was throne into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (Revelation 20:7:10) The lake of fire is the second death. Anyone whose name was not found written in the Book of Life was thrown in the lake of fire." (Rev. 20:7-15.)

I would like to add, to those of you reading this, please Come to Jesus and LIVE eternally, in Heaven. He stands knocking on your hearts door. He will not turn you away if you come to Him, with a 'broken spirit and contrite heart'. He is not willing that any should perish. Please COME TO JESUS! Bible verses below explain what you must do to become a child of King Jesus.
"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in Him will never be put to shame."
