I do not yet know how he answered as I am reading through this interesting thread; however, I believe that Crak believes in hell and a punishment after death (just not an eternal never ending kind of punishment).

Sis, I remember that same analogy taught by dad and others; however, what is being discussed here is the definition of eternity in the true context of the bible. Some believe that the teaching is "age long" while others see it as "without end". I do believe there is a difference, and I respect Craks view on the subject.

Re: Hell and suicide?

Who said we look through a glass darkly.Its so hard to see with these human eyes,and only understand in part what shall be.My mind fights so hard for understanding,and then im left with broken peices with witch i cant place together that makes any since.Then theres the fear of not understanding what is truth in time to make it to heaven!!DEATH IS TO BE FEARED!!!!!!

Well, I've been told that fear of punishment is not a good reason for serving God. You should serve God because you love Him. I've been told.

You can love him all you want and still be punnished. We fail all the time.
