Do People Go to Hell for Eternity? N-O

So, do they? Do people go to hell for eternity?
NO!!! A big FAT whopping N-O!
I declare to you that no one will spend eternity in hell.

Grant, how can you know anything like this? What revelation do you have, Grant, that would dispel hell from a possibility for our future?

Good question.
If one will look in Revelation 20:14, they will find (in the King James Version):
"and death and hell (hades) were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."

Now, one will then reply, 'Grant, well, even though no one will spend eternity in hell, they will spend it in the lake of fire. So what's the difference?'

I only point this out to A) rile some religious devils and B) to bring to light that if we as believers have false beliefs in something like this, we need to assess what else we have false beliefs in.

How much doctrine is based on"Hell"? Does anyone every think of the play Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames? That play is as scary as H-E-double hockey sticks. Many will say they were saved having seen it, or have seen many come to the Lord by it. Ok. Whatever. No argument here.

But, why not say Heaven's Gates and the Lake of Fire's Flames? (Well, that's not really catchy, huh?) Well, other than for marketing purposes, why do we use the false doctrinal fear of spending eternity in Hell?

I will leave that question to fall rhetorically on the pharisees of our day, and let the point marinade in you.

If you are currently teaching a doctrine that is based on a fear of eternity of Hell, what other parts of your doctrine need to be checked?

Our New Book: God's New Breed

Hey, everyone! I just wanted to get the word out to everybody that we just published yet another of Terry Kruse and Donna Kruse's book. It is titled "God's New Breed". You can get it at any of the seminars that the team is holding, but on the back table it will be about $10! Get it for $6, or less than a buck for a download!

This is the 5th book that Terry and Donna have published. You can view the others at www.miraclelifenow.com.

The ministry is cranking forward. We are now in preparation for our April 1st launch. That is when David Newberry and Terry Kruse will both be on television in front of 70 million viewers world-wide! Since David and Terry started teaching on Biblical Finance and began their Success Coaching, doors have opened and we have blazed forward.

This will be a huge day for the ministry, so there is a lot of work to put in between now and then! (Ah, the life of the Administrator!) If you are reading this and would like to be involved in the ministry, please contact me at grant.nieddu@gmail.com, or call at (772) 321-1840. Things are really blasting off.

Gunman kills 2 clowns in Colombian circus

WHO DOES THIS?!

Story Highlights
• Unidentified gunman shoots two clowns before audience at Circo del Sol de Cali
• One clown was killed instantly, and the second died the next day
• Police probe motive behind killings in small Colombian town near Venezuela

BOGOTA, Colombia (Reuters) -- Two clowns were shot and killed by an unidentified gunman during their performance at a traveling circus in the eastern Colombian town of Cucuta, police said Wednesday.

The gunman burst into the Circo del Sol de Cali on Monday night and shot the clowns in front of an audience of 20 to 50 people, local police chief Jose Humberto Henao told Reuters.

One of the clowns was killed instantly, and the second died the next day in hospital.

"The killings had nothing to do with the show the victims were performing at the time of the incident," Henao said in a telephone interview. "We are investigating the motive."

With an entrance fee of under 50 cents, Circo del Sol de Cali attracts mostly poor Colombians. It pitched its tents in Cucuta, near the border with Venezuela, earlier this month.

"The clowns came out to give their show, and then this guy came out shooting them," one audience member told local television. "It was terrible."

A.D.D. Success

Why Questioning ADD Can Equal Success


The disorder labeled Attention Deficit has many questionable characteristics. But let us look at what would be otherwise unrelated information. Mainly, the rise of popularity of the ADD diagnosis paralleled the advancement of technology and what we now term "The Information Age."


Characteristics of The Information Age:

  • Information comes at us at break-neck speeds

  • Success in the business world is determined by the efficiency of an entity's ability to obtain, assimilate, and apply information.

  • This requires a GREATER AMOUNT OF ATTENTION
    (side note of logic: anyone incapable of excelling at business is, therefore, experiencing a deficit in their ability to pay attention.)


Characteristic of Man:

  • It is our nature to maintain dominion over our world.


Problem:


  • In trying to dominate our world (careers, relationships, etc.), we are trying to hold each of these pieces of information

  • Humans can only maintain one thought in their conscious mind at a time.

  • As the technology improves and, thus, the speed of information increases, we will have a
    harder and harder time keeping all of this information in our head.

  • Imagine a young puppy who loves his bone. You throw TWO of the BONES, tell the puppy to get both of them, and then reprimand him for not obtaining both.



Brilliant Epiphany:


  • Understand that these young people that we are dubbing Attention Deficit are actually doing quite a good job at processing all of the information and inputs that we are feeding them!
