HAJ,

I have no knowledge of the "original languages." I do not speak Hebrew, Aramaic, nor Koine Greek, nor do I read them. I am, however perfectly satisfied with what the Lord has given me in the "original language" of my birth.

I know that, for instance, it is not the will of God for any to perish, but myriads do, and spend eternity in Hell and the lake of fire. God's will is for all to come to repentance, (2Pet 3:9) but not everyone does, else we could do away with hell, which would be a good thing if everyone would come God's way . . . . but they don't. Any man that rejects the free gift of salvation through the shed blood of Jesus Christ goes to Hell completely contrary to the will of God. God is not a burglar -- he wiill not rob you of your free will, but there are consequences for wrong choices.

And I don't mind contrary thoughts if they are based on scripture. I am not always right.
