This is why it is so important you read the word of God, in the original Hebrew and Greek, yourself and not take what others say it says.

This is how Malachi 3:9 is represented in various interpretations.

Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. (KJV)

With a curse ye are cursed! And Me ye are deceiving--this nation--all of it. (YLT)

Ye are cursed with the curse; for ye rob me, even this whole nation. (ASV)

You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation. (NKJV)

You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me; the whole nation of you. (RSV)

You are cursed with the curse; for you rob me, even this whole nation. (WEB)


Notice how everyone of the above translations say "Ye or you are cursed with the curse" But that is not what the original Hebrew says. Here is what the original Hebrew says: Ye are cursed {'arar} with a curse {m@erah}: for ye have robbed {qaba`} me, even this whole nation {gowy}.

Let's look at the Hebrew words 'arar and m@erah.

'arar is a primitive root; to execrate:--X bitterly curse

m@erah is an execration:--curse.

The original does not say You are cursed, it says cursed with a curse, meaning it could either be you are cursed with a curse or you cursed with a curse, in one it is God doing the cursing in the other it is it is God being cursed.

God's word is to important to trust others with it, your salvation is to important, you need to take it into your own hands not rely upon the word or interpretation of others.

No! You have scales covering your eyes, which only God can remove. They are a product of your unbelief and hatred for God.

Newton

Newton uses hypnosis for people to realize their spiritual life?

So is it accurate to state that Newton or one of his hypnotists are required to reach this spiritual state? Or are there others who provide the same service?

I have looked at some of the testimonials of Newton. It seems everyone had fascinating previous lives. Still looking for the testimony of someone who was a Calcutta street sweeper in the 19th century.

"For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb.” (Psalm 139:13)

Newton uses hypnosis for people to realize their spiritual life?

He uses hypnosis to help people with emotional or psychological difficulties. It was in the course of this work that he encountered the people recalling past lives and, more interestingly, the between life states. This regression has helped a lot of people understand and cope significantly better with issues they face in their current lives.

So is it accurate to state that Newton or one of his hypnotists are required to reach this spiritual state? Or are there others who provide the same service?

Hypnosis calms the physical mind enough to allow the soul-based memories to be recalled with much less interference. That's all.

I have looked at some of the testimonials of Newton. It seems everyone had fascinating previous lives. Still looking for the testimony of someone who was a Calcutta street sweeper in the 19th century.

His books, along with those of Brian Weiss, contain plenty of accounts of past lives that are mundane on their face, but are written into the books because they are significant for other reasons. A child falling out of a carriage and crippled by the wheels, for example.

Your whole lifetime barking up the wrong tree. You would have a whole lifetime of lost opportunities that would have connected you closer to the truth about your existence and relationships to other people. You would have spent your whole lifetime actively leading others done your path to nowhere instead of enriching their life. Need I go on?

"But, if I'm right what have you lost?."

Likely nothing. Just like you perhaps he will go to Heaven, perhaps not. God will make that call for all of us. Unless of course you already know that you are going to heaven? Well, do you?

How one knows he is there is by revelation, only, initiated by him, always.

On how one gets to know him, through a relationship, developing over time as effort is put into it.

And confidence grows as the relationship deepens.

I have always found the Bible ambiguous on the question of the resurrection of the dead. Whether instant resurrection or a final resurrection of all the dead, it doesn't speak plainly and uniformly to the issue. Theologians still argue it or, more wisely, just avoid the topic.

Even Jesus was in the tomb for 3 days before resurrection.

My point was that God never expected all believers to comprehend Greek and Hebrew. Most who claim that they can are either theologians who spent years mastering the language or people reading a lexicon put together by theologians and claiming they know the original languages.

The Orthodox Church supports translating the bible into native languages from the Original Greek. See Cyrillic alphabet.

http://www.goarch.org/ourfaith/ourfaith7068

Translations of the Bible are very necessary, but are not sufficient for formulating dogmas and doctrines of the Church, which requires reference to the original languages. The translations depend upon the genius and knowledge of the translator in the selection of the proper words and phrases to render meaning as close as possible to the text of the original language. It is well-known that a new translation is more or less a new interpretation.

*That* I would not say. There is a lot of overlap between the Newton model and Christianity. Namely, the overriding importance of love.

But look at it this way, If I'm wrong, what have I lost? But, if I'm right what have you lost?

Certainly, in terms of risk, I'm at a disadvantage. Maybe that means I have stronger faith than you?

But seriously, fear is not a legitimate reason to believe.

Characteristics ascribed to God like anger and jealousy are more likely the result of projecting of human traits on God rather than being an accurate description of an all knowing, all powerful, all loving God.

In a way you might be right - in that they are metaphors in lieu of projections, metaphors that appeal to the common mental associations.

God's "jealousy" means that you may not serve Him and other gods at the same time. You must be faithful or you will be cast out. A rejection of adultery does not mean lack of love, rather the opposite.

BTW, God is loving, but He does not use His omnipotence to take away human freedom to err.

Actually, Paul does.

An example:

1 Corinthians 15: 12 ¶ Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: 14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. 16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: 17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

That seems pretty plain to me, hope it helps you old friend.

Actually, what I think I remember from theological readings of the eastern fathers is that the souls of the dead do not go either to heaven or hell but fall into a sleep state until Jesus' return when they are then judged. While this sounds like limbo - it is not. I have also read that the saints and martyrs get to bypass the trial phase and go direct to heaven after their deaths.

Modern notions seem to think we go to heaven or hell right after we die - and that is at odds with the final judgement part.

It is not a difficult claim to make,

Read John 3:1-21 and you will come away asking just what you have to do to be Born Again.

Christ Himself answers that question in Luke 23:39-43. I have both written extensively on this and experienced the pain of crucifixion.

If you comply with John 3:3 by doing what the thief on the cross to Jesus right did, then you too will have no doubts of where you will spend eternity. And, if you think or have been told that you have to live a perfect life, then go back and read my post for the last 30 years, you will find there is nothing perfect about me.

But believe this, there are only two places you can go after death, Heaven or the lake of fire, there aint no purgatory! You pick that destination while you are still alive, after you die it is to late.

Put your salvation in no hands, read the word of God yourself and ignore commentary, read some exhortations if yu are having difficulty, but don't even do that till you have reached out to Christ thru the Spirit for help and understanding.

You are going to spend eternity in one of those two places, your salvation is to important to be left up to others.

Scripture supports both. And Origen had his doctrine of Purgatory as well.

It isn't actually a central question of Christianity. Given the backdrop of eternity, does it matter whether you make it to heaven or hell (or Purgatory) now or ten thousand years from now?

Against eternity, any time scale involving the human race has to be miniscule.

The Christian should focus on his destination, not his arrival time.

"Put your salvation in no hands, read the word of God yourself and ignore commentary, read some exhortations if yu are having difficulty, but don't even do that till you have reached out to Christ thru the Spirit for help and understanding."

My faith was secured a long time ago and remains unshaken. And yes, we are all sinners. And yes salavtion is a very personal thing. And yes sinners can go to Heaven. But only God knows what is in a man's heart and what deeds a man has or has not done. Only God will judge, even in the case of a death bed conversion of a thief on the cross. I would not presume to claim to know the God of mind. I am reasonably certain that there are a lot of very surprised Christians in Hell who thought they were going to Heaven, including ones that believed that they kept the faith and the word.

Perha ps this will clarify the Roman Catholic CHurch's teaching on the subject.

"I. THE PARTICULAR JUDGMENT

1021 Death puts an end to human life as the time open to either accepting or rejecting the divine grace manifested in Christ.592 The New Testament speaks of judgment primarily in its aspect of the final encounter with Christ in his second coming, but also repeatedly affirms that each will be rewarded immediately after death in accordance with his works and faith. The parable of the poor man Lazarus and the words of Christ on the cross to the good thief, as well as other New Testament texts speak of a final destiny of the soul--a destiny which can be different for some and for others.593

1022 Each man receives his eternal retribution in his immortal soul at the very moment of his death, in a particular judgment that refers his life to Christ: either entrance into the blessedness of heaven-through a purification594 or immediately,595 -- or immediate and everlasting damnation.596

At the evening of life, we shall be judged on our love.597"
