Hello ptr Steve. Thank you for this wonderful message. This is freeing. But I am getting depressed of how I can’t give a good answer to those who say, “if God is a loving God, why would He allow others to be separated from Him because they didn’t accept Him”? They say that because of their refusal to believe is what gets them to eternal fire of sulfur. Please enlighten me. Thank you! 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 “…in flaming fire, bringing judgment on those who don’t know God and on those who refuse to obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with eternal destruction, forever separated from the Lord and from his glorious power.”
The lake of fire and brimstone, if you read, is IN the presence of God. Both fire and brimstone are purification processing. Fire burns off wood, hay, and stubble (works, wrong doctrine etc). Brimstone turns everyone's gold and silver to a liquid state so that the impurities can be removed. Try to imagine standing in the presence of God. The presence of pure love. All impurities will "burn" off. (There's also a lot of mistranslations in the bible) Catholic translators did it when they translated the original Hebrew and Greek, on purpose. If their people were free and walking in victory, they feared they wouldn't need the church. They would loose their positions of stature and of course, all the $$$$ that was coming in. Our English translation came from their wrongly translated Latin version.
Yes the love of GOD reaches farther than people think But it's a good ideal to stay faithful and obedient because HE SAID, IF YOU LOVE ME KEEP MY COMMANDMENT'S. WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING. YES GOD SAID, I WILL HAVE MERCY ON WHOM HE WANT TO HAVE MERCY.Scriptures
Knowing the love of God that surpasses all knowledge!!!
I've felt condemned more times than I realized.
