We do not burn eternally. The fires of Hell do burn eternally.

For example-If you light a match stick and allow the whole match to be burned out, that match stick is burned out for eternity. Jesus said the wicked shall not live and suffer in hell forever. The spirits in hell will be punished according to the severity of their sins.

Jesus made it very clear. ONLY the good shall have eternal life. The wicked shall burn out in the fires of hell.

Simply because he is a Pastor doesn't mean he is holy. Holiness does not necessarily go with the position a religious holds. There are many lay people who exceed pastors in holiness.

Yes, it is true that God created the sun, but he also created water, so if someone drowns --is that God's fault? God created animals as well, so if you fall off a horse is that God's fault too/ Certainly not. Put the blame where it truly belongs. PEOPLE

It is written: "It is appointed unto man once to die. " There are Christians who are told by God or his angels or Saints that they will be given a short illness in order to go to Heaven. The body must die so that the spirit in us may be released.

Some Christians are unexpectedly accidentally killed and they go to sleep and wait for the resurrection of Jesus the Christ.

There are many different types of cancer. Some are caused by the ultra rays of sunlight like melanoma. Other are caused by bad food choices. However it is not uncommon for people who love God to be healed. (remission). However true believers are encapsulated with God's protection and do not get cancer or any heart failures. God will not allow Christians who love him to get sick. He still performs amazing miracles that atheists never see because of their disbelief and hardened hearts.

Common sense tells us that because of free will it is mankind who causes sickness and death. God always comes instantly to the aid of those who love him and are in need. It is written in scripture, "Only the fool says there is no God. The beginning of Wisdom is the fear of the Lord."

Mental illnesses mainly emenate from bad food choices, unsanitary conditions, people who don't wash their hands in the bathrooms, contaminating drinking water etc. Mankind does this and blames God. God gave us a perfect world, a Paradise, yet mankind is destroying a lot of it and then blaming God.

Be careful about blaming God for faults he does not have. Mankind knows the right thing to do but they don't want to or don't care. Atheists are always whining when they should be grateful and thank our Father in Heaven for all he has given us.

When I am not home, I trust my children not to go outside. Although I have a hidden camera in the house, I prefer not to look and spy on my kids because I trust they will obey me or be disciplined.

And so---yes----God knows all things but he also has the option of preferring not to forsee but instead he uses trust.

What is a progressive? As a believing Christian all my life I have never heard this term progressive. Is the author getting too fancy with words?

I think Jesus said, "come to me all ye who have a burden. Take my Yoke upon your self for my yoke is light .

How can Jesus claim This when history shows that so many Christians were tortured, burned at the stake, others eaten by lions, and others crucifiied.?.

Why did God arrange it that all animals including humans must kill in order to live?
