[@umiluv]

100%. I’ve been in Hell on Earth. A place in your mind and soul where you have no hope, feel no love, have no purpose. This level of depression I wouldn’t wish on even my worst enemy. Death was a reprieve. I’ve already come to terms with death. Going back to that place, the pit of despair, the dark place with no hope, with no God…. I never, ever want to go back there.

@@ARolls-dd2zd Two ways spiritual enrichment/enlightenment. Only the most high can guide you if you choose to be guided (free will). You could choose any religion or spiritual path to put your soul back into alignment with the most high. The feeling that you feel is spiritual deprivation. The other thing needed is knowledge and wisdom. Truth leads to freedom. Hopefully this helped you 🙏🏾.

[@martysochosen]

@꧁Sindano Negongo꧂ I respect your religion. But, again I said knowledge and truth is freedom. It’s so many tribes around the world that have never heard of Jesus before. Yet, they still are connected to the most high. Long story short it’s multiple ways to get to the most high. I’m just a open minded individual 😂🤷🏾‍♂️

Heaven is not discussed in the Torah, in order to emphasize the necessity to do what's right because it's right, and not for the reward, or to avoid punishment. - Rabbi Menachem Weiman

[@matthayes533]

That is an interesting insight. I like it. But it makes one wonder where they thought Enoch went when he was caught up or where they thought Isaiah was talking about in Isaiah 40:22, or what Solomon was speaking of when he dedicated the temple. I'm guessing the Rabbi did not mean to say heaven wasn't discussed because it clearly is, but rather that it wasn't the specific reward for those who kept the law. And Christians don't believe that either, we don't believe anyone is able to keep the law, that's the whole point of Jesus.

[@waitstill7091]

@@matthayes533 This quote was taken from an AISH article, where the Rabbi gives a Jewish view of Heaven and Hell. Here is another excerpt: "From Jewish tradition, a different viewpoint emerges starting with the fact that there doesn't exist the concept of everlasting damnation and torture. The Almighty's justice is not served by punishing someone forever. Justice means the punishment fits the crime. Since we are finite and our sins are finite, then our punishment or atonement must be finite." The Rabbi said heaven is not discussed in the Torah (First five books of Moses) and he's right. Enoch being taken by God is hardly a discussion on heaven. "24And Enoch walked with God, and he was no longer, for God had taken him." Genesis 5:24 This means the Torah refutes the Christian presuppositions of Heaven, since God never emphasized the necessity to do right on reward of heaven, or fear of hell.

[@matthayes533]

@@waitstill7091 If there is no heaven, where did God take Enoch? We can at least infer that Enoch was removed from Earth and enjoyed a genuinely positive existence elsewhere in God's presence. What is Heaven if not that? To say otherwise is to imply that God killed Enoch for being good. This is not the place for this discussion but I thank you for your wisdom and for sharing the wisdom of this Rabbi. In regards to your comment about hell and the punishment fitting the crime, you are forgetting a key point of crime and punishment. If I lie to you, you can do nothing to me - you have no authority over me, if I lie to my parents they might send me to my room, If I lie to my government or to a judge I might be put in jail. It's the same crime, but the punishment increases based on the level of authority a person has over me. How much greater would the punishment be if I lie to someone who has infinite and perfect authority over me? I wish you well on your journey and pray that God continues to draw you closer to Him. You have the last word, but if you ask a question I will answer out of respect to you.

[@waitstill7091]

@@matthayes533 Question: "How much greater would the punishment be if I lie to someone who has infinite and perfect authority over me?" Answer: The Hebrew bible tells us our Creator knows we are good, and capable of improvement. We know He will continue to keep His promises, because He is God and not a man. 27And God created man in His image....31And God saw all that He had made, and behold it was very good... 7Is it not so that if you improve, it will be forgiven you? Gen. 1:27,31; 4:7 19God is not a man that He should lie... Numbers 23:19

[@adamvicari3295]

Really? Where is your evidence that a 3,000 year old rabbi died on a piece of plywood specifically to ease your guilty conscience? Where is your evidence that this man even existed at all, let alone spontaneously rose from the dead after 3 days, a physically and biologically impossible feat to accomplish. Isn't it a little narcissistic to think that someone did, let alone should have, died so that you could stop fretting about your personal mistakes and you could avoid taking responsibility for your own actions. In what world is it even close to coherent, sane, or just to think that a man, whose existence is dubious anyway, who died in antiquity can magically absolve you and people who think like you of responsibility and consequences for your actions and you and people who think like you can magically transfer your guilt and the consequences of your actions onto this fictional character mentioned in a 3,000 year old book written by barely literate peasents? The idea of "Christ dieing for my sins" is nothing more than shifting the burden abandoning personal responsibility, denying reality, ignoring the truth, and lacking the courage to face the consequences of the actions you took and the decisions you personally made. Christianity, and all religion, is a scam, through and through. It is a sad pathetic little story people cling to in order to avoid the cold, hard reality of life in the world, a fantasy that serves as a mental escape , with no basis in truth whatsoever.

[@adamvicari3295]

There is no such thing as "sin". It is all part of the great scam of Christianity, and no one need "repent" of an error they did not cause or a wrong they did not commit. Jesus F-ing Christ, stop preaching and droning on about incoherent nonsense from a 3,000 year old fairytale, grow up, and realize that hell is a fictional place, god is a fictional being, and nothing will be lost if you are separated from a fantasy when you die. Christians have the mindsets of 8 year old children.

[@mamajo5867]

We only stop sinning as a result of that trust in our hopeless condition. Our repentance is not work but fruit that works. Faith without works is dead. But works without faith is dead too. We listen to Gods commandments because we hate our sin and love God and want to be like him. Repentance is the fruit of trusting in Jesus. Two sides to the same coin. It’s just important to know that your efforts to run from sin don’t save you. Trusting in God saves you. And that helps you run from sin.

In mystical states people can see other realities and even listen to the thoughts of others but Hell is something that goes back in time as something seen and actual.

From age of 20 I feel chased by time, and I feel very guilty and ashamed when I have unproductive days. I'm way too conscious about my short life on Earth than I would like to, to the point of obsessively planning too ambitious goals in advance but still worrying execcssively about my future with every step i take. This created so much anxiety and perfectionism resulting in inaction. As a philosopher I think too much abstractly and do too little practically. In the last 12 months i have been thinking a lot about ways to extend human life and i can't seem to let it rest. I desperately want to leave a mark on this Earth before I go but can't figure out how exactly. It's probably not healthy but this is just how i am.

I was watching "Pirates of the Caribbean". My second viewing of it with friends for some reason triggered me. Jack and his Sparring partner were walking along the bottom of the ocean with a boat tipped on their head. I was into it. "O that's a good idea". I graduated in Mechanical Engineering. I had to study hydrodynamics. I had to study fluid dynamics. I have a solid background in WHY DO BOATS FLOAT!. I was accepting two characters walking with a boat over their heads with air to the GUNNELS. I had two people smarter than me on the couch. I turned to them and said "Apparently that boat never floated!" "What do you mean!" "Why do boats float?!" They were also taken in. A little tiny thing like that worms its way into your brain and you accept it as true. SMART people accept these things. Only later, maybe, you discover that fallacious concept and get rid of it. It is a slippery thing. But then we have the story of Pinnochio and the Whale. ... And I have to stop and not be so cynical. Somewhere between surviving being eaten by a whale and using an upturned boat as an Air Supply lies a line. WHERE IS THE LINE? I don't have an answer. People can be cruel to an extreme.

3:59 That is not what Nietzsche said. The original quote is "Wer mit Ungeheuern kämpft, mag zusehn, daß er nicht dabei zum Ungeheuer wird." which translates to "He who battles with monsters should take heed not to become a monster himself while doing so.". Les lyrical, but more accurate. Translating it as "battle not" makes it a direct advice not to engage in the battle in the first place. That's quite a significant difference from the actual quote, which doesn't advice to not engage in the battle nor does it state the becoming of a monster as a certainty. Granted, I am missing the larger context of the quote, but it seemed significant enough to point out.

If you accept Him, It’s fair for God not to send you to hell, because someone went there for you, but if you refuse you have to pay for your unrighteousness, because all unrighteousness have to be paid for.

Please think about this and don't be deceived by the devil who would love for you to follow him to death in hell and stay with him there for eternity. Hell, called the lake of fire in the Word of God, is very real and Jesus Christ spoke about it very often. The curse of sin, is death. The very real place of hell (the eternal lake of fire) is why Jesus Christ came into this world to die on the cross. Because of His great love for us, His creation, He died on the cross and shed His blood to pay the penalty for all of our personal sins and rebellion against Him. After His death He descended into Hades, and on the 3rd day He was resurrected from the grave and was seen by His disciples and above 500 others, before His ascension into heaven. Having victory over the grave (the curse of sin), the living Christ is now seated at the right hand of God the Father until He returns to make all of His enemies as footstools for His feet. He died so that all who believe in Him would live, being made a new creature with a new life here on earth, and the promise of life eternal in heaven with Him (born-again by the Spirit into God's family). Do not reject Christ Jesus who loved His enemies so much that He died to save us all from the punishment of Almighty God for our sins and eternal damnation in hell, which is the lake of fire. This life is just but a moment. Eternity is forever. Make the right choice! Jesus Christ PAID it all for us! Only BELIEVE in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved! ❤✝ Matthew 5, Matthew 10:28, Matthew 16:18, Mark 9:43, Luke 16:23, 1 Thessalonians 1:10, 2 Thess 2:7-10, John 3, John 18-21, Romans 3-8, 1 Corinthians 15, Ephesians 2, Revelation 1 and 19:20, 20:10-15.

But my great grandpa did make it to 102. His daughter, my blessed grandma who lives a room down from me, is 96 I believe. She doesn’t like to specify, could be higher. However, she has the same mental edge as the woman I knew at 60. I hope I go her way unlike both my grandpas who died with dementia. EVERYDAY when I was 8 I spent hours upon hours worrying of death. Most particularly, Hell. Hell was on my mind perpetually. As was suicide despite the fact I had an absolute lust for life, didn’t have any depressive qualities. Suicide disgusted me, the idea I could end my life instantaneously was damn scary. I didn’t know I had severe OCD at the time. So I was very much in the dark. Violent imagery and existential dread was compulsive. Wait till puberty and sex comes into the mix.

How did you overcome this?

I noticed that Elon Musk comment too. In my experience, most productive/creative people find themselves in that frame of mind from time to time. Grief, profound grief, will take one there too, as will illness. My aunt, the day before she died, asked to see each of her five children (and her grandchildren), and prior to retiring for the night, she wrote on a piece of paper and left it on her night table. It said: “I’ve had enough.” And she went to sleep and didn’t wake up. I could relate many similar stories. Love and All Good Things, Jess.🌹
