It seems like we are not going to change each other’s minds. One day we’ll find out for sure. To my human mind, your doctrine “makes sense” but it is not what I read in the Bible, so I will stick with my beliefs. After all, when the Day comes, I won’t have anything to lose while you...
I don’t want anyone to believe what I believe simply because I believe it. I want people to study the Scriptures and learn what is the real, absolute truth. I used to believe as you and probably most Christians, but after much prayer and study I have come to believe that Scripture preaches death (as in the ending of life or existence) to those who don’t believe and eternal life to those who do.
Lastly, while I agree that this issue will be finalized after we die, I don’t understand why you posted, “when the Day comes, I won’t have anything to lose while you...”
What is it that you think I will lose? I know that I am saved and will live for eternity with Jesus.
