Devil, you need God's power to be good. We know right from wrong innately. That's not what God is for. Abraham had to be shown God does not demand human sacrifice, as the Amorite Religion required it. Except once, through God's Son, which God says Jehovah Jireh. He will provide. But our conscience bears witness to that, and the Bible bears witness to our conscience.

Slavery is a kindness on those who cannot understand or know how to take care of themselves. Or it's there to reprove the wicked for their crimes. It also was the only way to keep large cities fed. We don't need it now, as we have industrial machinery.

God talks more about charity than anything else. That's why I believe.

The wars God caused man to fight brought peace, though. Sin grows too severe sometimes, where the next time, God will have to destroy it Himself, like He did in Noah's day. But in Moses' day, He delivered the people of Israel through the beach, and defeated Pharaoh, and caused the next generation to war with Canaan, as they were in deep sin, which caused deep suffering. In Christ's day, He died and raised, and persuaded the entire Roman empire, through the peace of His servants' righteousness. But now, we cannot war anymore. We have to win through persuasion. Like it were in Rome, again, and maybe by our own blood.

We don't know who burns in hell. God is Judge not I. No, I don't know who's going to hell. Or who's going to heaven. Nobody does. The nations will join themselves with Israel, so there's no way to tell. God's Word is extolled above even Himself, so those who love righteousness, I believe have grace, so long as they find Christ, and His power. There is one name, and all other roads are wicked. There is only one gate, but few shall find it. I believe righteousness compels the LORD to find you, though, and move all things to bring you to Him, and gather you, as a Hen does its flock.

But He resurrected, confirming His witness. Josephus names His brother, James, dying for the testimony that Christ raised from the dead. Not to mention, myriads of Church history--we know a lot about the apostles--they died believing too, having met and ate, and lived a very intimate and close life with Him. And they saw Him ascend. And Thomas put His hands into His wounds, being slain by red hot irons after not perishing in a furnace. So it could only be Christ. That's confirmation of His moral teachings.

The Gospels are the evidence. They're more reliable and closer to the source than Plutarch. And we have far more manuscripts to compare and understand, and make a complete documentation of the scripture. We know this through Papias who it was who wrote the Gospels of Mark, Matthew and John, and Luke we know accompanied Paul, who knew James, Peter, John and through John Mary.

Well, consider, if you weren't going to hell, the LORD would draw you to Himself. You couldn't be removed even if Satan employed Seraphim to blaspheme God's holiness through your prophetic organs. Which Satan has done, as I've witnessed through reading about the martyrs. If the LORD has chosen you, He knows your heart already, and will save you because He has instilled His righteousness within your heart, and has proved you love His law. There is no work, but a change of heart. The LORD is sovereign, and is the one Who causes change.

It's not your deeds, but your state of heart. Hell happens because you've rejected the Holy Spirit, and cannot have a share of God's righteousness, nor His peace. If you cannot have God's peace, where will you go? What will you have? God is the source of all good. So you ultimately can have no good if you choose to reject Him.

There's no work in heaven. It's a restoration of Eden, with Hephzibah as your Eve or for women the LORD as their Husband, and the Lord's Mind, Soul and Spirit so you can never have any more sin. You become like God, and have power to judge, and are made into clans and nations. It's the restoration of the mistake made by Adam and Eve, only saved through Christ, and given a resurrected form like Himself.

[I]nfinity is a difficult concept. Like, calculus assumes an infinite to divide and get a correct solution--which is a lot like how I understand faith to be.

Like, it's just so hard for people to understand. You can have infinites in one dimension, that are smaller than infinites in two, which are smaller than infinites in three... and so forth. I think everyone should take a basic Algebra class, to understand that stuff.

But, why we know Christ is LORD, is what He spoke. I learned for 30 years--since I was 5--and was in intensive education, first in school and then on my own. Jesus had none of that. He was from Galilee, poorer than you know. We have houses unearthed in Galilee, they'd be the size of my living room. The Psalmist says He had no bed, and was thrown out of His house. He was homeless... and kind of struggling mentally with that, too. You see He's stressed out in His ministry, but He always keeps composure. He's not Schizophrenic at all. I am... but He's not. He's fully cognizant and in a time without medications, so His condition could only get worse and not better if He were crazy. And nothing shows that He was. Not anything we've seen about Him. And He was just an extremely gifted human being. Fully salient, fully in His right mind, and performing miracles. Jesus is the Son of God, for those reasons.
