servant of Christ

I had a nervous breakdown during the financial crisis, the mental break brought on mental trauma that stemmed into being homosexual for a year. Once God healed the trigger of the paranoia, all the side affects went away, including the homosexual thoughts. I am so sorry you are still struggling with anxiety/ homosexual thoughts, etc. Did you have any failed relationships with females when you were growing up, an overbearing mother, a mother you could not associate with. Etc. A distant mother? Those issues can cause mental illness in people as adults. I have done extensive studies on homosexual behaviour, and much of it is simply from mental issues from failed relationships. Good post, take care. BTW that is a great hotline you call. I love crisis text line. They are so awesome. I used to work on a crisis hot line, when in bible college.

I made a mp3 of the free book after the flood, I also have a word document if needed. I am about half way through it, it's amazingly detailed. It was almost dry the amount of detail it had. But for some who are more into history this would be a gem. Here is the mp3 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NaXPEqMiWAWw01m-rGsJXqbH5Va-ZJ5-/view?usp=sharing

I love this topic! Thanks for posting all of that, I will have to read it later. Here is what I have found regarding this topic: There are hosts of information online about this. I have documents galore on this, and I sort of need help sorting it out. Was the flood story adapted from the chinese myths of a flood or from other Mediterranean myths of floods? I think this is a summary of a book that came out about 15 years ago that was a best seller at a creations conference, but the author posted this article: http://www.annomundi.com/history/forgotten_history_aig_tj.pdf There are also other books, from pagan historians speaking of noahs sons populating different countries. Again you will have some errors, all of history has error. It's not like the Bible, infallible. So if you have conflicting accounts you simply research more. But this guy has done most of the legwork. But anyway. There are histories chronicled of noahs sons all the way to china etc. And that would be (my theory) why there were flood stories in china, and why they theorize 8 people saved by water, as their language says (in ancient chinese). some more links: Forgotten History of the Western People (best selling book at 2006 creation conference) pre flood babylon?: Was There a Pre-Flood Babylon? Borosus a chaldean priest (non jewish historian) documents noahs generations after the flood: The Travels of Noah into Europe-1601 version.docx book after the flood by bill cooper: After the Flood, by Bill Cooper

How can they prove that sin is simply finite. Everything from scripture that I see shows sin to be a spiritual error. Spirit realms are beyond time and space. Which means that when we sin it's in the eternal realm, the spiritual realm, and must also be addressed or punished in the spiritual eternal realm. So again proving that sin is finite, would be the logical step that they would need to do.

Some people can makes sense of annihilation. But when it comes to hell fire, and reading the sheer number of verses in the Gospels (by Christ himself) about "where the worm never dies, and the smoke of their torment." It can be a lot to take in initially. I sympathize with that viewpoint. But as we show here, it would be the wrong viewpoint. I feel that conscious eternal damnation in Hell is justified myself. See if you had the ability to read every thought of every human, every lie, every deception, every angry word, every hate filled word, and the sheer number of them you would think twice about calling God unjust for eternal hell. See if we sinned just once a day. And we know we sin probably hundreds. But let’s do the math on one sin alone. That is 365 sins a year. Before you are even a teenager you have committed 3,650 sins. In an average 80 year life span you have committed nearly 30,000 sins. Now that's all fine and dandy because we forget about what we had for lunch yesterday. But imagine being a superior being, and being constantly reminded not just of yesterday’s sins, but of sins you did when you were a baby. (Because God is omniscient, and knows everything). That is being constantly reminded of 30,000 sins all at once. Just for one person, for 1 sin a day. I committed a habitual sin the other week. I had been real good for months, then I just messed up. And you know what? God was merciful. But I noticed one thing, I was angry at God the next day. My heart was hard like a rock! I realized this because just a day earlier, my heart was pliable and soft the day before (compassionate). At least for me it was. I can always do better though. But I noticed one sin, made my heart angry at God. Imagine never having forgiveness for your sins, and bearing the guilt of 30,000 sins. How angry would you be at God? Yes, when we see the whole picture, we realize that man hates the idea of God, and he loathes God in his normal condition. Man would rather be in hell than be in heaven with God, he hates God so much. So God gives them what they want. But it is when they actually feel the heat, like lazerus... that they start being sorry. But then it's too late. Now I used to teach that the Bible taught eternal torment, not eternal torture. But that is just semantics. Those words are synonymous. One sounds better yes. But if the Bible was written in modern terms, I don't see a single problem with it mentioning torture. Because of the above information. It changes your perspective doesn't it? (I apologize already for the length of this first post) please bear with me.
