James tells us that
we are saved from death, not saved from being thrown into an eternal
barbecue called hell, which would be a living hell.
If there is no
time in eternity, then there is no time for punishment in this place
religion refers to as hell either:.James
5:20 "Let him know, that he which converts
the sinner.(original
for "converts" is "turned to, upon turning around", etc.).from
the error of his way saves a soul from death.(death,
not an ever burning hell).and
hides a multitude of sins.".That's
what God wants; to cover one's sins and provided a way through Him becoming
Christ, to wipe away one's negative energy forever:.John
3:17.
The concept
of hell is simply a religious concoction
designed by those wanting to keep others fearful and under control for
their own greedy purposes
here on Earth and for those following such a doctrine, well, they are just
ignorant because they simply have accepted the opinions on it from those
who told them so.
"The softest of stuff in
the world quickly penetrates the hardest. Insubstantial,
it enters where no room is."....Lao-Tzu.
And what is going to cover
his sins? Getting him into the law and commandments
keeping? Or teaching him about love, including God's love for him?.1Peter
4:8 "And above all things have fervent charity.(original
is 'love').among
yourselves, for charity covers the multitude of sins.".And
how
is that possible?
Fire is symbolic
of Christ's presence in one's life:.1Corinthians
3:13-16; Isaiah
10:17 "And the light of Israel.(who's
Israel today?).is
for a fire and his Holy One for a flame and it burns and devours his thorns
and his briers in one day." Malachi
3:2,3 "But who may abide the day of his coming? And who stands when
he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap. And
he sits as a refiner and purifier of silver....."
The Infinite One also deals
with obstinate
people by having them 'get
burned' in life. Why?
Fire is also symbolic of
His words and actions of correction:.Isaiah
30:27 "Behold, the name of the Lord comes from far, burning with his
anger and the burden thereof is heavy. His lips are full of indignation
and his tongue as a devouring fire." Isaiah
42:25 "Therefore he has poured upon him the fury of his anger and the
strength of battle and it has set him on fire round about, yet he knew
not and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.(not
listening so as to improve)." Psalms
21:9 "You make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger.(seems
like one is getting burned in life in all he may do).
God swallows them up in his wrath and the fire devours them.(if
people don't change from their negatives, life just gets worse for them)."
Isaiah
66:15,16 "For, behold, the Lord comes with fire and with his chariots
like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury and his rebuke with flames
of fire. For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh.(it's
God who's responsible for the trials of life and they are for awakening).and
the slain of the Lord be many.(because
it's God who's
responsible)."
Romans
8:36 "As it is written, For your sake we are killed all the day long.(it's
all for our good, to awaken us, if
we'll be awakened; what do we
need to awaken?). We are accounted
as sheep for the slaughter.".It
is talking about the worthlessness of our lives in comparison to what has
been offered us.
Psalms
78:62-66 "He gave his people over also unto the sword and was wroth
with his inheritance.(Israel
is God's inheritance; who
is Israel today?).
The fire consumed their young men and their maidens were not given to marriage.
Their priests fell by the sword and their widows made no lamentation.
Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep and like a mighty man that shouts
by reason of wine. And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts. He put
them to a perpetual reproach."
But, God
can
be greatly affected by us.
Some think the lake of fire
is hell. Hell or the
things of hell, however, will eventually be cast into the."lake
of fire".(also
called the "second death"):.Revelation
20:14.
The original word for 'hell'
is 'unseen' or 'not seen'. When you're dead you
are 'asleep' as it were; no one sees you because you are now out of physicality.
One is then in hell or the 'grave', as the original word for hell is also
often translated.
Emmanuel went to hell.(the
grave):.Acts
2:31. Christ will do away with death and the grave.(hell):.Revelation
20:13,14; 1Corinthians
15:22 "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made
alive."
The time for only purity
of love to exist in the multiverse. Today the time now is over.(*).for
the history of greed, selfishness harm and control of others to their
detriment,
but to the controllers cruel and selfish advantage:.Nahum
3:4; Revelation 20:2-7.
The Infinite One has it
planned to burn up the flesh.(1Corinthians
5:5; 2Thessalonians 1:8).that
has caused so many men and women so much waywardness
that they just could never seem to extricate
themselves from and just never had the heart to because they were
severely corrupted and blinded by
the satanic rewards of evil and preferred to just carry on in the way that
they wanted:.Proverbs
14:12. Who
were and are these?
Their spirits.(their
real
selves).then
will finally be free of fleshly influences that had seared.(1Timothy
4:2).their
mind, soul and conscience
and the real them can hopefully shine, if
they so choose to be no longer the 'them', the low consciousness them,
that produced what they have lived, the 'them' influenced to one degree
or another by the
dark side, the 'them' being unable on their own to pull away. The 'them'
who were spiritually unable and cared not to ask God for help that's always
there and not even caring if there really was
a God or not, somewhat like the ancients:.Jeremiah
44:16,17. God produced Christ so that nothing
would ever be held against us.
Unbelievers will then realize
that a scapegoat
was provided for them because they were loved by God. God gives up on
nobody of the human species He created!.(*).
As you also would be with your children, you never give up on them. God
is very patient and waits for as many lifetimes as it may take for their
awakening. Some have already reincarnated
many times. Let's hope for them that no more are necessary.
But, because they
lived as they wanted on Earth.(2Peter
2:18).leading
to the death of their flesh, they, now being in the invisible world, will
have the opportunity to grow spiritually and get a reward for their efforts
there, but the higher rewards will have
bypassed them, having been earned by those having turned to and holding
onto the high standards of love during their time in the
pressure cooker of life on Earth. And this is each of us.
Life is the
time we all have been given to choose to no longer be a part of the
negatives
of humanity's experience:.Ecclesiastes
3:1-8; 2Peter 3:13; Revelation
21:1-5.
Revelation
10:6 "And sware by him that lives for ever and ever, who created heaven
and the things that therein are and the Earth and the things that therein
are and the sea and the things which are therein, that there should be
time no longer."
Living from the darker side
of life.(greed,
selfishness, deceits and wanting control over others).makes
one reticent
to take effort.(Matthew
25:25-30).toward
the good side.
Some are too.steeped
in negative
ways they have chosen, too steeped to even begin to move into a
higher consciousness existence and too corrupt with their flesh to bring
forth
any spiritual fruit. Who
may they be today? Their habitual
living having condemned
them, the book of
life is to them a book of death:.Revelation
20:12-15. So, what happens to the obstinate?
Eventually.(Revelation
20:4).there
will be no more flesh. At this time will be the end time, that is, the
time has ended for rewards, positions in the
kingdom of God gained by one's good works on Earth toward others:.Matthew
22:37-39.
At this time which is after
the time for physical man on Earth being in a state of peace.(Revelation
20:2-7; the time we are just coming into now),
some may choose during that time, as many evil people today have chosen,
that they just couldn't make effort toward spirituality
while in the flesh. The fleshly living they have found to have been so
hurtful to others, yet lived that way anyway and also that they were too
afraid to live in this non physical invisible realm
of higher consciousness of love, because they
were too steeped in their consciousness of evil.
At the end of this time of
peace on Earth is also the end of the physical time for humans, which is
this so-called thousand.year
reign before the time for humans on Earth is over.
So, these evil ones are
hesitant
or even averse
to all good, in
spite of many prompts earlier
coming to their minds.
It's important to live and
trust in He who cares for His creation, like you would trust your dad and
mom.
They thus
had become unbelievers or maybe just
plain uninterested, having been contaminated
by programing based on a lifetime of living with a low consciousness susceptible
to the tricks of the dark side and of
being content with dark side deceits and became lazy livers.(Matthew
13:22; Hebrews 10:27; 1Peter
5:8; Titus 3:2),
rather than being
indignant
toward such things and standing up for the things of love.
The same principles apply
to being in this higher consciousness kingdom
of God.(sometimes
called the kingdom of heaven).after
death as before death; no love, no entry.
No love? Then you wait till it's time for your flesh to be gotten rid of,
the flesh that has kept you from becoming a loving man or woman of high
consciousness.
The attitude or spirit we
had shortly after.(why
shortly after?).the
beginning of our lives on Earth, is the same we had previously:.2Timothy
1:9. We are here to modify ourselves by moving into higher consciousness,
by learning love and growing in knowledge:.Ephesians
3:19; 2Peter 1:3; 3:18.
If we can't do that here
in this pressure cooker,
it will eventually be made easier for us. Our flesh will be over and done
with. That time will have finished and our spirits are freed from the constraints
of the low consciousness that we just couldn't seem to extricate
ourselves from, but then it's a lesser
reward, but still OK:.Psalms
84:10; Romans 9:3.
The spirit will then be free
of all the habits that could have been used as tools to
overcome and gain a reward. But, at least
one will be free of influences in their past physical life that had pulled
them into darkness and kept them down and away from light. They will then
see the true light of life.
Those unwilling and/or seemingly
unable to change will no longer have the downward habits of the flesh caused
by a mind of low consciousness. Their flesh will be burned up. Their spirit,
what it is that is really them apart from all the fleshly problems they
had, will now be free, free to choose God and without the fleshly pulls
tugging on him or her to go the other way.
For those who have already
passed on not having progressed
on this 'other side' here on Earth that we often call the death side, they
will be resurrected to physical life with
whatever improvements, if any, in character they
may have developed there.
It will be easier for these
ones with problems they could not just seem to overcome, to choose life
and love at that time. And will their
reward be as great as the others who overcame more while on Earth in
the physical? No:.Psalms
84:10. But, what would you do if your sons and daughters just couldn't
make it very high at all and kept falling back in life? Would you be hard
on them? Well, what will
the Creator do?
For some people, the flesh
and all its cells have vibrated
with evil for so long that they are saturated
with the evil of their thoughts and results of their negative actions and
decisions.(their
cells vibrating back to their minds {cells
have memory} the evil that they allowed to be programmed into them:.1Timothy
4:2).so
much so, that any journey away from the evil becomes just too far a journey
to attempt:.2Peter
2:17-19;
Jude 1:10,11. And how
will God take care of them?.Matthew
20:1-16; 21:28-32. And
what about the obstinately
evil demons?
God will free them from the
flesh that has caused them a lifetime of heartache and they will then
be able to choose ways that are good for them, ensuring that they too will
live in joy throughout eternity, having everything good thay could ever
want.
We come here to have another
chance to learn things. All humans
and those of mankind will finally face making a decision for
the better or not. Why?.1Corinthians
2:9; Luke 15:11-32; Matthew
7:9-11. In this they will finally know what God is.really.like,
fair, loving and all for them. How many
is this 'they?
But some asleep are there
not for long and others sleep longer until time for them to choose to become
loving, if they even do then. There is no other way than love:.John
14:6; Revelation 21:27. And
when the time for humaness is no longer, those not of love are of no use.
The time for redemption is now over. What will happen to them? God created
humans and all else. If God created us, he knows how to save each of us
and for the obdurate,
God may save them this way.
Many have thought the wicked
today are 'gonna go to hell' based on thinking coming from writings regarding
the wicked inhabitants of the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.(Jude
1:7).whose
crimes and vices
were so large in number and
degree.(what
were they?.Ezekiel
16:49).that
God destroyed those and two neighboring cities, Zeboim and Admah by fire
from heaven:.Genesis
19:4-29.
Don't be thinking that those
in these cities all went to a forever 'hell' because they suffered the
vengeance of 'eternal' fire:.Jude
1:7.
Those wicked in Sodom and
Gomorrah and cities close to them.(see
above).aren't
in hell. They are out of the hell they lived in while here on Earth. From
our perspective,
they are 'sleeping'.(awake
in a different frequency of existence, perhaps waiting, perhaps
changing).like
others who have died, awaiting a resurrection and judgment:.Mark
6:11. A more accurate translating of Jude 1:7 would reveal 'eternal
fire' there as 'fire from the Eternal' as the result in 2Peter
2:6 shows as being from fire.
Did they go to the place
commonly believed to be hell?
Luke 10:12.shows
these wicked ancient city dwellers also will have a chance to choose to
be part with those in the Book
of Life you and me are already written about in.(Revelation
20:12,13,15; 21:27).as
being worthy of living for eternity in the great
realm of the Infinite Intelligence.
The Infinite One, the All
Wise one does not want anyone to
miss out and has ways to bring His will of good for all creation into
being:.Romans
11:23,24 "And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall
be
graffed in, for God is able to
graff them in again..." Romans 14:4
"Who are you that judges another man's servant? to his own master he stands
or falls. Yea, he shall be holden up, for God is able to make him stand.".You
see, it's all a
stage with the master director of the purpose of it allowing workings
on the stage to be what the players decide and with their own decisions,
they gain their own rewards.
He provides the stage. He knows when and how to change the show to everyone's
benefit.
The Creator we call God created
us. Does He not know how to save us? Is there anything on Earth and even
beyond that the Creator has no interest in and has given up with?.Exodus
19:5 "Now therefore, if you will obey my voice indeed and keep my covenant.(a
covenant is an agreement), then you
shall be a peculiar
treasure unto me above all people, for all the Earth is mine." Deuteronomy
29:29 "The secret things belong unto the Lord our God, but those things
which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we
may do all the words of this law."
All the Creator does has
a motive of love
behind it and ultimately will be comprehended by us as such:.Hosea
14:4.
John
5:24 "...I say unto you, He that hears my word and believes on him
that sent me, has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation,
but is passed from death unto life."
Romans
8:2 "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Emmanuel has made
me free from the law of sin and death."
So why
does the Creator not just force us to go the way that is good for us, the
way that is best for us, the good
way of the Creator? Why doesn't God force us as He did in Paul's life,
setting in motion circumstances that caused him to move from his close-mindedness?
God didn't with the angels and a third of them went rogue.
We have free choice, even amongst
any trials and tests we have in this
school on Earth. God also has free choice to save you or not. He's
chosen to save you because God loves you, no
matter how evil you may have become:.Deuteronomy
7:7,8; John 3:16,17; 10:10.
Creator-God wanted Paul's
zeal
where Paul did what he believed was best. God wanted to use this to benefit
others, that is, used apart from
the
error life Paul was now living.
Note how God is the same
today.(Hebrews
13:8).as
God was back then in dealing with wayward
Paul, in that, circumstances
caused Paul to seek some answers and those answers to his life at that
time involved
turning to God, but only after a massive wakeup that shook
Paul to his knees.
We too have to ask God for
the help available. No askey, no getty! Without asking, the vail
over you will remain as a dark cloud might, in blocking the light of the
sun. There is only one way to remove this vail:.2Corinthians
3:16.
It's the same
for us all. And it
was so even way before Paul showed up on Earth. And, who
controls these circumstances that lead us back to God? And
why 'back to'?.Revelation
1:4 "...Grace be unto you and peace, from him which is and which was
and which is to come..."
Where would our individuality
go if we were actually forced? We would then be automatons.
Where would the opportunity to have a better character
go? God wants us to be sure that the way we choose is the
way we want, because it was chosen by us, even if so after adverse
circumstances such
as Paul had, otherwise it may not be fully from the heart. And in this
is a reward for us. Creator doesn't
override our hearts, even
to death. Some people have lost so much hope that they just can't comprehend
anything other than getting out of here. Suicide seems like an attractive
option to living on Earth. It
isn't.
We have all felt at one time
or another that we've been on
the pathway toward death. Stay
away from that path:.Ezekiel
18:31 "Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby you have
transgressed and make you a new heart and a new spirit, for why will
you die, O house
of Israel?".That
is, decide to get away from evils
in life that have been plaguing
you.
A poem about it:
Walk your path, even when
it grows narrow.
This path moves you forward,
because with God, all goes well for you.
This is your path, for you
alone.
Step onto it with care and
consider each step.
Take your conviction with
you.
This is your path. It's what
you should do.
It's up to your will alone;
the will that keeps your going,
so that you do take every
step.
Advance along this path of
yours, which touches you in your soul and is vital for your life, because
to God you are a treasure.
Your path is what makes you
what God has intended for you.
God gives you the power
to do it, but it is you who must take that step.....Horst
