Rozz:
There are verses in the bible to prove hell fire exist.Revelation 21:8,Matthew10:28,Matthew 25:46 and many more
Matthew 10:28, like I've earlier stated, the word “hell” in translations of most Bibles today mean something else in the original manuscripts.
The “hell” you're seeing at Matthew 10:28 actually means “Gehenna(Valley of Hinnom)”.

The word “Gehenna” literally means “Valley of Hinnom,” and it referred to a valley that was just outside Jerusalem in Bible times. In Bible times, the city residents used this valley as a garbage dump. So Jesus used that illustration then Gehenna as a symbol of everlasting destruction (Matthew 23:33)

I intentionally avoided this discourse for the simple fact that it is one of those that I have termed inconclusive arguments.

While we can't find the mention of the trinity of God is the bible, yet it can be inferred. The same can be said of Jesus being Archangel Michael.

By definition the word Angel means a messenger from God.
And Archangel means the Primary messenger from God.

By inference the title and position would seem only suitable to the person of Jesus Christ.

I think DappaD has done justice with the scriptural references to support this.

However like other spiritual affairs, it is subject to personal revelation or discerning spirit


God bless you again and again for this post!

Now if it's subject to personal revelation , and there is BENEFITIAL WORKS to show for it {James 2:18-26} is there any need for further argument? cheesy

Typical. I see you've also started adding to poeple's quotes just to suit your meaning.

Why did you add discerning spirit to the post?

Why am I not surprised when you add your own meaning to the bible.

Hope you know the curses that follow those who add and remove from the bible just to suit their own meaning??

You can see whatever you choose to see in the scriptures.

So if you want to see Jesus Christ as God, it is there.
You want to see Jesus Christ as the Holy Spirit, it is there.
You want to see Jesus Christ as an Angel, it is there.
You want to see him as Lucifer (Morning Star), it is there.

On that premise, those who choose to see Jesus Christ as Archangel Michael will certainly see it too.
It is up to you, what do you want to see?

Those who want to see in the scriptures that Grace permits Sin, also see it. Hence most Pentecostals.
While those who want to see that Grace only permits righteousness, so shall they see viz Deeper Life.

Like I said, you can see whatever you choose to see in the scriptures.

grin grin grin grin grin. You have started your own.

You can truly see whatever you want to see but that doesnt change the fact that there is ONLY ONE THING the scripture text shows to us. There is ONLY ONE MESSAGE and there can be ONLY ONE INTERPRETATION. Hence, when two people see differently the scriptures. it is either one of them is wrong or both are wrong. This is the reason we ought to continually examine our doctrines and teachings and be open to make corrections where needed.

The foundation of the scripture is this. A TEXT OF SCRIPTURES CANNOT MEAN TODAY WHAT IT NEVER MEANT WHEN IT WAS WRITTEN. The is the foundation of bible interpretation. What we should desire today is to see exactly the same thing the Holy Ghost inspired the writer to write. And i believe we will all agree that the writers and the inspiration have only ONE, SINGULAR MESSAGE IN A TEXT. That exactly is what we should strife to see.

WHEN A DIVINE UTTERANCE IS SUBJECTED TO DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS, IT CAN NO MORE BE CALLED DIVINE.

2 Pet 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

Did you say PERSONAL REVELATION? In God's word?

Please delete that word now. It is not good for you at all.

The scriptures are not for personal revelations Sir. It has a define purpose and intent. Search for it Sir. A DIVINE UTTERANCE SUBJECTED TO PERSONAL REVELATION AND VIEWS CANNOT BE SAID TO BE DIVINE AGAIN. To be divine, it must carry the same intent of the inspiration: God.

I think proper bible interpretation classes should be organised in many places. This will go a long way to help many.

This is quite true and necessary to maintain order and sanity in the church.

But have you wondered why Catholics pray through Holy Mary and your church doesn't?

It was due to a personal revelation that became a doctrine.

To be more scriptural, Paul always referred to his encounters and revelations during his epistles which seemed to contradict the other apostles yet they accepted them, after all both he and Barnabas were chosen by the Holy spirit for a special mission to the gentiles.
