What is weeping and gnashing of teeth?

[@Balboza]

A correct interpretation to me is on that day before God, there's two types who will be found guilty of sin, one will weep because he thought he did was was expected of him he'll cry out for God in this moment but he'll respond I never KNEW YOU. The other type with his teeth clinched tight will say HOW DARE YOU GOD DO THIS TO ME?! both will spend eternity alternating from weeping to knashing in the bowels of hell.

[@hacunamatata6802]

And that is an incorrect and unBiblical explanation.

[@Moonkdd]

I think you mean if, not when.

[@YahBePraised]

Why Jesus? I believe in the creator, but not in a vicarious atonement, through an unfalsifiable character. I believe the Christian Bible mistranslated and plagiarized the Hebrew Bible and other esoteric sources to form its doctrine.

[@wolfnovelist]

If god is all knowing, all creating, all there is and I am… why would he create a system in which belief in him could be questioned or lack of which would be punished? Why would he create a world where atheists could exist or frankly an angel could exist that would betray him to force his hand to make it the punisher of the sins he allows to happen? There is no biblical god, for if there was it would not be all powerful or all loving.

Free will is a thing

[@wolfnovelist]

Well then who created free will? If a god did not intend it then he makes mistakes and is there for not all knowing or powerful. If god did intend it then you are saying that he intentionally created a system where some people can't even succeed. So he is not all loving and with this thinking anyone born into a different religion is automatically sinful and god intends it to be so.

[@EyesonJesusPodcast]

@@wolfnovelist of course He intended it. But you can’t have love without free will or we would be robots

[@wolfnovelist]

It doesn't make sense. Why would a all loving god create a system in which he acknowledges people need to have freedom but then punishes them for it? If you need to worship this god to save yourself from damnation you might as well be a robot. Because clearly if you truly have the gift of free will there wouldn't be the stipulations behind it.

What a horrid cult. Their entire premise is torture and self hate. A cult that is long overdue for reckoning.

Lmao as an atheist, I do not hate god. I don’t believe in him. Much like I don’t hate leprechauns or unicorns, I just don’t believe in them.

@@EyesonJesusPodcast is your Bible your foundation on morality? Or just like a general philosophy on how one should lead a good life? Like generally speaking I believe the Bible has beautiful messages about how one can lead a good life. But you cannot use it absolutely. Because it has terrible and disgusting views on life as well. Some of its teachings are horrendous.

@@mikeymikedabeast1793 learn to rightly divide the Word (2 Timothy 2:15). Much of the Bible is descriptive bs prescriptive. Learn the difference and read it with the Holy Spirit teaching you.

I've had 12 years of Catholic schooling and I became an atheist in early HS. Now, for the millionth time I can safely say, speaking for every single atheist I've ever met in my life (in my 50s now), we DO NOT HATE GOD BECAUSE WE KNOW GOD DOES NOT EXIST. That's like saying we hate Thor or Zeus because we don't believe they exist. Makes no sense. I actually like some of what is purportedly said by Jesus. Some nice stuff. Some dumb stuff. And some really awful stuff. I just wish you believers would at least try to live up to what you preach. That would be nice. And stop it with the "we just hate God stuff" because it's not true and you know it but keep on repeating it. So you are willfully saying something you know is not true. I believe you guys call that a "sin". By your own definition. And I'd appreciate it if your followers would read your "magic" book for themselves. It really seems like we know it a helluva lot better than you guys do. And leave queer people alone. They can love anyone they want and if you preach otherwise I consider that highly immoral and deeply f**ked up. Mind your own damn business. And don't trust some slimy preacher to tell you what it all means. He doesn't know. He's taking you all for a ride. Read it for yourself and then try to tell me it's a moral guide or accurate history. There's some real sketchy stuff in there that I'm sure most decent people wouldn't consider moral by any means. Anyhoo, I'm sure you guys will keep on lying about us to try and hold on to your dwindling congregations. So good luck with that. Looking forward to the day you conmen will have to get real jobs and actual do something to help progress society and improve people's lives instead of stoking hate and ignorance and taking money from people who need it more than you do by lying to them. Have a good one.
