   Why do you not understand v31 which I highlighted? It does not justify   
   anything your mind tries to create. You were shown that Yeshua is God, You   
   acknowledge that Yehovah is God, though not God of your life. You   
   acknowledged that the Holy Spirit is God. And Jesus said the Holy Spirit is   
   just like him. Yet you despise all the scripture that declares Yeshua is God.   
      
   You have been shown multiple times where God throws the Antichrist and his   
   false prophet directly into the lake of fire.   
      
   All those things and more speak to the fact that you are a hypocrite with   
   regards to believing ALL the Bible as well as calling yourself a Christian.   
   That you are insistent in the JW religion being the only correct one, just   
   like you believed when you were a RC that it was the only true church.

   Because you flat out did not understand the mind of God when you read verse   
   31 above. As a point of fact he was not speaking there of Himself throwing   
   people into fire. He was speaking of people sacrificing their children to a   
   god that he did not know or recognize as being one, and the thought of humans   
   sacrificing to gods in a religious sense never entered his mind as He was   
   opposed to that. Read it again and see if that is not what He meant.   
      
   It has also been pointed out to you multiple times that the Lake of Fire and   
   Brimstone was a place created for Satan and his angels. Not intended for man.   
   But since many deny Jesus as God they will go there as their spiritual father   
   is Lucifer aka Satan.

   It is the reward for those who have not made Jesus Lord of their lives.

   It is torturous to dwell in prison. Why do you think many desire to die   
   rather than be returned to prison.
