Re: Loquat...
"So you have no concept of God's omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence in your theology then? How about His universal sovereignty? Or was that just a cheap shot? If you're gonna 'convince' me, you're gonna hafta do a lot better than that."
Was just joking with that one about Christ multi-tasking. But I honestly think it is demented to think he'll be watching the unbelievers suffer for all eternity. Just my opinion.
"My original point about the philology being against you still stands, in the sense that your position requires the original Gk words that are translated as 'perish' or 'destroy' to mean annihilation. When you examine their usage in the rest of the NT, your case largely collapses."
I don't like the term annihilation, like you don't like certain terms. But you started using that term, so I did. But I'd like to go back to the terms the bible uses, perish, destroy, etc.
So do you think perishable can mean immortal?
