I don't believe anything.
Believing, suspecting and knowing are three different things.
The objective is to know.
How is it most of the so called Christian believers don't know the word HELL is not in the Bible?

The trouble with believing is usually not enough critical thinking is involved. Look at all of the different beliefs in the world. Most of them must be wrong.

Lexi our service on sunday was based upon that scripture. I do believe in God but this is always going to hard for some people to understand. To the world it seems stupid because in this age things must be backed up by evidence. The world sees and then believes where as to havefaith is believe and then see.

So sad...you are quoting the KJV, when it is not even the same word used in theoriginal manuscripts. Try NIV, NASB, or the Hebrew Biblewhich are far more acccurate translations and it says "the gates of Hades", not "hell". You will even find this correction made in the New King James Version (NKJV)....

but of courseyou have the Christian spin on things. What is even more hilarious is that it shows that your god (Jesus)had "pagan" beliefs citing a placein Greek mythology...LOL!!!

It's natural for me not to believe in the god of the bible.

I wasn't conscious of the concept of a god until some people "choose" to let me know about it.

I remained the same in that regard. No choice involved.

Why would I listen to and believe the words of people who are taught to believe they're sinners to begin with, and who decides on whether I need a saviour or not? I'm more than capable of sorting that side of things out for myself.
To answer your question, because I know better.

The truth.
You DID not answer the Question Instead u chooseto try and attack my belief. YOU FAILED.
Actually I did answer your question. Why do youchoose not to believe in God and acccept Jesus Christ as your Saviour? And I said basically becuase it is falsehood!
And when did I attack your belief? You feel that way because the facts have convicted you.
Jesus already done told us about people like u.I will pray4 u.
See this is what I mean, "people like u" what does this mean? Who are these socalled people? I guess it is christianity or bust. You are so religious that you won't accept the truth never the less I will march on.
Shalom.

The word hell is in the Bible
Matthew 16 verse 18
I have FIVE books that all say HOLY BIBLE on the cover.
I take for granted that that is a LIE.
At best they should say TRANSLATION OF THE HOLY BIBLE.
It is the word SHEOL in the Old Testament which is translated as HELL. I did not learn this until I was over 40 years old even though I spent 13 years in Catholic schools. But you know how Catholics are wih the Bible. Anyway I happened to look up HELL in Cruden's Concordance because of something I heard from some so called Christina about hell that didn't make any sense. So that is how I first learned there was any dispute about the meaning of SHEOL.
Since then I have only encountered 3 Christians who claimed to know about sheol but the vast majority admit they never heard of it. Now even if HELL was the correct translation of SHEOL shouldn't these so called Christians know about the original word?
I think the Christian leadership has been keeping the Christian followers ignorant for centuries and the majority of sheep just follow along brainsoiling their children into the same rut.

ps - The big problem with believing is that it blocks the assimilation of new information, even correct information if it contradicts the belief.

Just Curious,
Please answer my questions.
If you are not prepared to handle answers that are outside of your mode of thinking, you should not ask questions on the internet.
