This pope sucks!!
Hell is having a Pope named Francis.
If there is no Hell, where does Lucifer pick up his mail?
Apparently after the third day, he descended into Hell and then left because he found that there was nobody home...
Huma Abedin’s laptop?
Hillary’s Aerver?
Anthony Weiner’s laptop? ewwwww....
Its pretty easy to say this Pope is a jerk and a moron, but we all knew that already.
Please provide Scripture that states the Lake of Fire is not for eternity?
Ball is in your court. I’ve provided mine.
From “Got Questions” and with Scripture:
Question: “Is hell real? Is hell eternal?”
Answer: It is interesting that a much higher percentage of people believe in the existence of heaven than believe in the existence of hell. According to the Bible, though, hell is just as real as heaven. The Bible clearly and explicitly teaches that hell is a real place to which the wicked/unbelieving are sent after death. We have all sinned against God (Romans 3:23). The just punishment for that sin is death (Romans 6:23). Since all of our sin is ultimately against God (Psalm 51:4), and since God is an infinite and eternal Being, the punishment for sin, death, must also be infinite and eternal. Hell is this infinite and eternal death which we have earned because of our sin.
The punishment of the wicked dead in hell is described throughout Scripture as eternal fire (Matthew 25:41), unquenchable fire (Matthew 3:12), shame and everlasting contempt (Daniel 12:2), a place where the fire is not quenched (Mark 9:44-49), a place of torment and fire (Luke 16:23-24), everlasting destruction (2 Thessalonians 1:9), a place where the smoke of torment rises forever and ever (Revelation 14:10-11), and a lake of burning sulfur where the wicked are tormented day and night forever and ever (Revelation 20:10).
The punishment of the wicked in hell is as never ending as the bliss of the righteous in heaven. Jesus Himself indicates that punishment in hell is just as everlasting as life in heaven (Matthew 25:46). The wicked are forever subject to the fury and the wrath of God. Those in hell will acknowledge the perfect justice of God (Psalm 76:10). Those who are in hell will know that their punishment is just and that they alone are to blame (Deuteronomy 32:3-5). Yes, hell is real. Yes, hell is a place of torment and punishment that lasts forever and ever, with no end. Praise God that, through Jesus, we can escape this eternal fate (John 3:16, 18, 36).
Won’t he be surprised.
In March 2014 Pope Francis said, citing Pope Paul VI, the Catechism of the Catholic Church says that Catholic teaching “affirms the existence of hell and its eternity. Immediately after death the souls of those who die in a state of mortal sin descend into hell, where they suffer the punishments of hell, ‘eternal fire.’ The chief punishment of hell is eternal separation from God, in whom alone man can possess the life and happiness for which he was created and for which he longs.”
Thank you. Now it makes sense.
Perhaps I should have replied to the first post?
Maybe. BUT... I have often pinged off the last post on a thread, so I understand why you pinged off mine.
HAPPY EASTER !!!! God bless you and yours.
