Death VS Life

Proud and brave atheists claim they accept death with courage and expect it to get them out of reality.  People who love God know death is the curse and is our enemy, not our friend.  Grenache is banned for being a punk, but he is welcome to watch.  Bobs is banned because he wants to be left where nothing good from God exists in the fire of Hell, and I'm tired of trying to talk him out of his foolishness.

JOHN 03:16 .. for God so loved the world .. that he gave his only begotten Son .. that whoever believes in him shall not perish .. but have eternal life

03:17 .. for God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world .. but that the world might be saved through him

03:18 .. he who believes in him is not judged .. he who does not believe has been judged already .. because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God

03:19 .. this is the judgment .. that the light has come into the world .. and men loved the darkness rather than the light .. for their deeds were evil

03:20 .. for everyone who does evil hates the Light .. and does not come to the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed

03:21 .. but he who practices the truth comes to the light .. so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God

Here is a pretty good site explaining why English speaking Christians should use nothing but the King James Bible. This is not the best site in my opinion, but the King James Bible defense is good enough

I don't know if you realize or not, but King James was a Protestant. This means that he is not the original Christian.

there is nothing wrong at all with ANY of the newer bible versions, including the NIV or the Living Bible, or my personal favorite, the NRSV. as long as a certain version of the bible can make it easier for somebody in the Faith to read it and understand it and come into the Word of God, i dont see a problem. besides, even with your King James version you are just reading an old translation. And one that you have NO WAY of knowing is accurate! You only rely that it is, because you were taught that. You were NOT there when the orignal scrolls were set to papyrus scrolls, some 3500 years ago--for the OT. And some 2000 years ago for the NT.

even then, the bible was first in Hebrew, then Greek, Aramaic (for Jesus, since he spoke that dialect)..and then Latin, and then German (from Luther) and THEN finally...English.

plus with the Septuagint we had 70 Greek scholars (alleged scholars, who is to say, really?) transcribe it. then the RCC has the Latin Vulgate. also....sigh....all of these words were not put down on papyrus even the FIRST time before they had been passed on orally for decades. Decades! so...for Jesus, the first Gospel written was Mark. even though the bible puts Matthew first. So Mark was written about 35 years AFTER JC died. This is like you sitting down tonight and writing about a guy who conducted a brief 3-year ministry back in the 1980s! Gee, do ya think a word or two might have been lost in Translation?

So, again, all this bolsters my point about how there is nothing wrong with any of today's newer versions. Quit creating paper tigers to fight. So now I have presented a pretty accurate history of bible translations and why I think today's versions are fine, if they help people read them. now I challenge you (again!) to tell me where I am wrong, instead of just saying something like "all those fake bibles are evil and only for satanists." which is they way you normally reply. that is to say, you retort not with facts and explanation and by citing specifics, but only with groundless and prejudiced blanket condemnations.

again....tell me I am wrong. And HOW I am wrong.

God Bless.

Death is a safe bet; it will always trump life. You can't ignore reality, not even sky God believer can change that fact.

Jesus Christ conquered death and will save all who believe on Him. Since you prefer death over live, it's all you will ever have. And for blaspheming God, you are banned. You are on your way to Hell and if you don't get saved, nothing will change that fact. You have one foot in the grave and the other on thin ice melting over the fire of Hell, so high falute all you can until you prove nothing changes the fact that you are dead in your sin now. Fool.

Death is pretty great, everybody I've ever known has either done it or plans to, so it's pretty popular. For me though, I'm not dying to try it until I'm much older and looking for some fun things to do with my retirement money.

Did you love any of the people you've ever known who died, and did you think it was a great thing that they were taken away from you by death? It's hard for me to believe you are that loveless.

You say you are not dying to try it (death). but you are dying to try it, you're trying it now....trying to go slowly I guess, which is good, but it's all you have, it consumes everything you are and all you have and may finalize that consummation in a moment.....and before that moment comes, you need to be sure you have eternal life in heaven and not eternal dying like you are dying now in the Lake of Fire as a sinner who has gone against God.

Thanks for your comments, good comments, and I really hope you get to enjoy your retirement money..........I know of better things, much better, than enjoying retirement money and those things will make you far richer than mountains of money if they are yours

If you think it (death) is so good, what are you waiting for...?

You don't even have to kill yourself - just "do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on", etc.

what is death if the soul survives it? Bodily death is not the enemy. it's not even an entity that could be rebelled against. as the soul is the only part of us that matters.

-

Somthing somthing... we await our glorious bodies....blah blah. see phillipians 3:21

-

all the immortality that god promises is giving us a new shell. if that's the case, then bodily death is a byproduct of recieving a new and "Glorious" body. this shell will die. I accept that. I approve of it. that does not mean that I hate god.

Annnd...I'm totally gonna get banned...again....

no reason to ban you, I was vague in the OP and titles of opposing views to encourage comments and they are welcome as long as they show some desire to remain on topic.

Notice these things in the simple wording of the debate.

Death VS Life.........they are two separate things, and what do you have? Do you have death, or do you have life? If you have life, then you can't be dying or you have dying and you don't have life. Life is not dying, dying is not life. And yes, bodily death is the enemy, caused by sin, it's the curse of death and it's our enemy trying to keep us out of life. No, it cannot be rebelled against (though some whackos like Demon Hunter seem to think they have rebelled against it and won). The soul is not the only part of us that matters, our bodies will be with us forever. In Hell people will have some kind of physical bodies with teeth that they gnash in anguish and flesh which feels the heat of the fire, eyes that weep, a mouth and lungs which will wail....after the final judgement, their dead bodies will be reunited with their bodies in Hell. Our bodies are measured in time and every moment of our time counts, our bodies really do matter.

None of the promises of God apply to you if you have not received Jesus Christ in person as your Savior. You have to get a new spirit from God, born of His Holy Spirit to be like Jesus to have a new body like His resurrected body free of pain and death.

I would not say you hate God because you are not being closed minded. I would not say you love God because I really don't think you know Him yet, but maybe you will before it's too late. I know Him for real through Jesus Christ who lives in me and is my life. You can know Him, you can know God's love for real, and knowing His love will cause you to love Him and change your desires as your time is counted down.

Thanks for your comments.

I'm starting to think that all you're good for is banning people. All you do is start debates so that you can go ban people. You probably have a contest with yourself every day to see if you can break your own personal record of how many people you got banned that day

JOHN 05:18 .. for this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him .. because he not only was breaking the Sabbath .. but also was calling God his own father .. making himself equal with God

05:19 .. therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them . . . truly truly I say to you .. the Son can do nothing of himself .. unless it is something he sees the father doing .. for whatever the father does .. these things the son also does in like manner

05:20 .. for the father loves the son .. and shows him all things that he himself is doing .. and the father will show him greater works than these .. so that you will marvel

05:21 .. for just as the father raises the dead and gives them life .. even so the son also gives life to whom he wishes

05:22 .. for not even the father judges anyone .. but he has given all judgment to the son

05:23 .. so that all will honor the son even as they honor the father .. he who does not honor the son does not honor the father who sent him

05:24 .. truly truly I say to you .. he who hears my word .. and believes him who sent me .. has eternal life .. and does not come into judgment .. but has passed out of death into life

I asked you before to use King James Bible only in my discussions. I'm very serious about it for good reasons. I'll have to put you on the auto ban list if you wont' honor my request, agreeing with me on the issue of God's word preserved and given to us in English, or disagreeing on that issue.....if you agree or not, you can still honor my request for my discussions and use quote the Bible only as the King James Bible. I consider this to be a disruption as you know where I stand in this matter.

NOTE TO READERS: dadman WAS BANNED FOR IGNORING MY REQUEST THAT HE USE NOTHIG BUT THE KING JAMES BIBLE WHEN QUOTING THE BIBLE IN MY DISCUSSIONS. THIS POST IS TO CORRECT HIS PERHAPS UNINTENDED EXPOSER OF HIS IGNORANCE ON THE SUBJECT. IF YOU WANT TO DISCUSS THIS ISSUE IN FOCUS AND MORE DETAIL, PLEASE RESPECTFULLY SUBMIT THAT REQUEST WITHOUT BRINGING IT HERE AS THE FOCUS. I WANT TO KEEP DISCUSSIONS CENTERED AROUND THE DEBATE TITLE.

....................................................................................................................................:The modern translations are based on the work of two nineteenth century Greek scholars from England--B. F. Westcott and F. J. A. Hort. Westcott and Hort, who were deeply involved in the occult, hated the Textus Receptus Greek text, from which the King James Bible was translated, so they conjured up THEIR OWN Greek text. This Westcott and Hort Greek text was based primarily on two very corrupt fourth century ROMAN CATHOLIC manuscripts: Codex Vaticanus (discovered in the Pope's library in 1481) and Sinaiticus (discovered in 1859 in a trash can at St. Catherine's monastery on Mt. Sinai). These are usually the "older" and "better" manuscripts that we keep hearing so much about. These manuscripts support most of the attacks in the new versions.

The Vaticanus is considered to be the most authoritative, although it is responsible for over thirty-six thousand changes that appear today in the new versions. This perverted manuscript contains the books of the pagan Apocrypha, which are not scripture; it omits the pastoral epistles (I Timothy through Titus), the Book of Revelation, and it cuts off the Book of Hebrews at Hebrews 9:14 (a very convenient stopping point for the Catholic Church, since God forbids their priesthood in Hebrews 10!). The attacks on the word of God found in these manuscripts originated in Alexandria, Egypt with the deceitful work of such pagan Greek "scholars" as Origen and Clement of Alexandria. Then in 313 A.D. the Roman emperor Constantine ordered fifty copies of "the Bible" from Eusebius, the Bishop of Caesaria. Eusebius, being a devout student of Origen's work, chose to send him manuscripts filled with Alexandrian corruption, rather than sending him the true word of God in the SYRIAN text from Antioch, Syria. So the corrupt Alexandrian text (also called the "Egyptian" or "Hesychian" type text) found it's way into the Vatican manuscript, then eventually into the Westcott and Hort Greek Text, and finally into the new "Bible" versions in your local "Christian" bookstore. Therefore, when you hear or read of someone "correcting" the King James Bible with "older" or "more authoritative" manuscripts, you are simply hearing someone trying to use a ROMAN CATHOLIC text to overthrow the God-honored text of the Protestant Reformation and the great revivals. God has never honored this corrupt text and He never will.
