Global Sanctification ( regardless of faith
The Church teaching which suggests we truly believes the eternal chamber of torment exists in principal, can never be MORE than a suggestion.You still never addressed this from Tantum ergo:
âFor a person who freely and knowingly gravely offends God (mortal sin), unrepented at death. . .just exactly what do you say God âdoesâ with this person, and please bring forth after your statement the teaching documents from the church which support this as authentic Catholic teaching.â
Iâd like to know your thoughts on that particular bit. Personally, I think you wonât answer it because it will force you to admit you are wrong, or that you misunderstood all your references.![]()
Coming in late on this thread so forgive me if this has already been asked. If as you believe there is no hell, then there is no punishment for our sins⌠then why do you practice Christianity? Or even the Catholic faith? If there is no hell then we are all free to do whatever feels good without consequence. So if this is true then why these warnings from Sacred Scripture?The Church teaching which suggests we truly believes the eternal chamber of torment exists, in principal, can never be MORE than a suggestion.
No man or institution can suggest a concrete truth without factual evidence, and expect the impact of the suggestion to be in fact âmoreâ than a suggestion without evidence. This is logical
The idea of an eternal hell in teaching is rationally only a suggestion. It can never be more than a suggestion. Suggestions to the human mind are just thatâŚsuggestions.
No one can truly believe a suggestion without evidence is a fact. Without concrete evidence
logically all one can do with the suggestion is two thingsâŚ
I have no clue what your getting at. The above 2 options represent the ONLY product such a teaching without concrete evidence can produce. Add serious contradiction directly associated
- Hope the suggestion is true 2) Remain impervious to the suggestion
with the suggestion and common sense would gaurantee option number 2 above
The above two options are your focus. Nothing more , nothing less This is logical
The Church knows there is no evidence to support the eternal issue.
And, yet, you offer your suggestion âwithout factual evidenceâ as fact. This, then, is illogical.No man or institution can suggest a concrete truth without factual evidence, and expect the impact of the suggestion to be in fact âmoreâ than a, suggestion without evidence. This is logical
What in the world are you talking about, forgive me but it seems like you are rambeling.It may be irrationally argued that there is another optionâŚ
To worry that the suggestion is true.
If the teaching is imparted to worry the teaching is true, then in fact it is ONLY A SUGGESTION. Absolute belief in eternal hell cannot logically represent a factual END PRODUCT of the teaching.
Eternal Hell Belief in teaching can never be more and represents a request to CONSIDER ONLY. Therefore the fact of the matter is , The Teaching is ONLY a request to consider the possibility Period.
I donât know if many in thread will have much more to addâŚ
Be Warned & Believe what you Truly Will:thumbsup:
Very Interesting, Iâm glad for ânowâ to have returnedComing in late on this thread so forgive me if this has already been asked. If as you believe there is no hell, then there is no punishment for our sins⌠then why do you practice Christianity? Or even the Catholic faith? If there is no hell then we are all free to do whatever feels good without consequence. So if this is true then why these warnings from Sacred Scripture?
Matthew 13:49-50 So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just. And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 25:41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.
I read your second post and it makes no sense at all. From what I gather you would have us believe whatever new age nonsense you are espousing over the word of God. So again I ask why do you practice Christianity? Or even the Catholic faith? if there is no hell then youâre safe, home free, you got it made. No need to tow the line.Very Interesting, Iâm glad for ânowâ to have returned
Firstly the second quote you provide has been discussed and is left un-challenged due to logic provided. I believe it is the first post I enter after the introduction inviting members to present their True Individual Will for the day.
Its sounds as though you are a thinker. You might want to read the entire thread.
Spirituality is all about living with ease. The cross of an evil life is far more heavy than the
cross of loving virtue in life experience. This is true.
If this is not recognized in experience to be true, an attraction falling into evil may be present.
Man is only human. We need the example in Jesus in order to piece together a solid idea
of just how, we can live within the âease of peaceâ.
If the life in grace is seen to be burdensome, then the mother of virtue charity may not be exercised with open willingness. Consciously the charity may be extended without genuine "feeling"and seen as an enduring un-easy process.
The key is to feel the pain in others. really care and
âŚjump outâŚof that useless depressing self orientated selfâŚ
We are programed naturally for charity. Its better and easier to be your natural hopeful self. Not always easy, but quite a bit easier than the hopeless alternative. Our neighbor needs the example. Its how spirituality âworksâ Iâm off to a work related responcibility, have an easy, cheerful, carefree day:thumbsup:
But Jesus is not just a man, He is God. And Jesus spoke of Hell. He didnât SUGGEST that people would wind up there, He didnât say, âOh and Iâll just give a SUGGESTION that there will be undying fire and wailing and gnashing of teeth.âThe Church teaching which suggests we truly believes the eternal chamber of torment exists in principal, can never be MORE than a suggestion.

Be Warned & Believe what you Truly Will
As shown by his absolute denial and argumental evasion, it is quite clear that following Christianity over his own dogma is exactly what he doesnât want to do. It takes a special kind of pride, blindness, or an outright hatred of true doctrine to want to teach this to other people.I read your second post and it makes no sense at all. From what I gather you would have us believe whatever new age nonsense you are espousing over the word of God. So again I ask why do you practice Christianity?

I hear you, the problem is that he IDs him/herself as RC and then rambles on about all kinds of new age and nonsense garbage. Then Protestants see this and hang his or her tag on all of us.As shown by his absolute denial and argumental evasion, it is quite clear that following Christianity over his own dogma is exactly what he doesnât want to do.

The teaching is processed within the mind and translates the
possibility onto a hopeful reality in which requires another life, no last moment hope.
The desire also imparts an end product in Creation to comprise such . The hope is an
absolute judgment of God himself, in his ability to create an ultimate end befitting a
a Divine Masterpiece of Benevolence
3)
Allowing oneself to translate teachings which contradict hope in self by means of potential
subjectivity to this abdication of faith is a mis-representation of teachings to self.
It is also a desire which interferes with hope for our neighbor, as well mankind as it is
an absolute rejection of virtue hope. The Member is in full contradiction of the
Belief System. The entire bulk of pious teachings rooted in Charity are thus stained as
they are clearly without virtue Hope.
Man can only process 3 possibilities when presented with non concrete idea's
O k heres the dealâŚFurther Suntime:
Could you simplify your teachings and tell us exactly why you donât believe in hell as taught by the Church and what paragraph in the Catechism supports your view as correct authentic teaching?
I mean, when Protestants for example try to tell us why they donât believe in, say, the idea of the Pope, they give us things like, âthe word Pope isnât in the Bibleâ, or that 'maybe Peter was the leader but after he died there wasnât any further stuffâ.
All you say is âoh but God is LOVE and a loving person would not condemn people to eternal TORTUREâ. . .
And you still havenât told us what to do about the person who eternally rejects God. What does God do with this person, and please chapter and verse of the authoritative Church document which verifies your statement.

All you say is âoh but God is LOVE and a loving person would not condemn people to eternal TORTUREâ. . .
And when we say, "Yes, God is love, HE is not the one condemning and the torture is a consequence of the personâs free choice to reject Godâ. âŚ
You come right back with, âOh but God is LOVE and a loving person. . .â blah blah blah.
Gravity exists and if you were falling down into the Grand Canyon it wouldnât do you any good to say, âI donât believe a Loving God would create such a force that would cause some poor falling person to DIE!â The force wasnât created to make people die, but it is a consequence of the force that somebody who did fall into the Grand Canyon would die from the effects of the fall!
And you still havenât told us what to do about the person who eternally rejects God. What does God do with this person, and please chapter and verse of the authoritative Church document which verifies your statement.
And if you are saying that we canât âknow for sureâ. . .balderdash. If we canât know for sure based on what the Church teaches, why are you even Christian, because you canât âknow for sureâ that ANYTHING is correct. . .not Christianity, not even physical life. . because you donât have any âproofâ, right? So either there are things you know and trust even if you havenât actually experienced them (like hey, I trust that astronauts can fly into space even though I havenât gone on the space shuttle). . . or you just dither and waffle about what you donât âlikeâ and claim that there is no way to âknowâ. . .
Ok buddy, here is the DEAL.O k heres the dealâŚ
Ive considered the possibility of hell in a serious manner a few times in my life and I cannot
believe it truly exists.I have to force myself to consider it, and it just wonât goâŚno way. canât deal with acceptence for more than 5 seconds in every kick at the catâŚIt will NEVER be with my mind.
Recently, besides other things that people encounter in life, news ect, I have come to know someone. That someone FITS so perfectly for this idea in hell, that if hell exists , the chair is waiting. I cannot however entertain the idea of this actually happening even though the exposure to this mad individual excites a hopeful fair and serious consequence
When it comes to REAL LIFE , this is not a joke. Once the mind believes the eternal hell chamber exists, in a real life situation, the mind if it has any quality , does not see the ordeal of hell to serve any purpose other than , exchanging the noticed insanity from one to another.
I want nothing to do with hell. If its a reality in my knowledge for eternity, I will take a rain check and be dust in the wind. . I am NOT going through life only to wind up in another higher dimension of insanity. I firm on this. No way.
I believe there are serious consequenceâs. Real consequenceâs. Ive believe the understanding of exactly what the soul IS, âŚis the problem in theology.
If one understood what I believe the soul may represent, the experience on earth would make sense, the consequenceâs would make sense, and I feel quite a bit would be uncovered as much conforms withâŚbasic common sense.
LastlyâŚthe way I see it is like thisâŚ
When a so inclined group goes to watch a madman get executed for viscously interfering with family ectâŚonce the madman is off of planet earth, there is a sense of peace. The disorder is no longer in society.This is not my idea of consequence just talking potencial peace , without insanity âŚthe principal which is clearly in play, re the hell exchange of horror for horror
If Jesus came to a person and said the followingâŚYour loved relative is dying.
The person can say two thingsâŚ1) OK , the loved one will be dead shortly
2) Oh NoâŚI will go tend to comfort and hope for the best
Above disposition in 1 and 2 are how I find scripture reference to hell and so on.#1 represents the theologians looking for approval from the state. Control is very powerful and acts at many different levels
When Jesus said.1)âŚWe must âbecomeâ as children to enter the kingdom, he did not say
âŚ2)âŚThose who are not as children will not enter for âeternityâ
questionâŚwhy not?..notice the word become is left out in #2
I think thats a fair question. We like to quote meaning and then twist it around to suite global
trends and exercise control. I canât buy into all this twisting.words around .My mind simply is not interested in being manipulated.
