The proof is in the Bible, both the Old and the New testaments, so why would
I go to a web site of confusion?

I take them in the context that they were written in. Scriptural Context.

That shows your ignorance of the creation as described in scripture. Your
false assumptions that you no doubt would excuse away as an opinion.
God resides now as he always has and will be. If I told you the truth of Gods
word as I have many times, what good will it do you when you reject it out of
hand, like you do regarding Jesus being God?

The believers will be wherever Jesus is, in heaven. If course you have no
understanding of that and try to teach others out of your confusion and lack
of understanding. Which is because you know not the Son of God, nor His
Father.

All the verses you quoted, you had to jump through translations to try and
fit them together, but in each case Forever, did not mean what you took it to
mean. Proper translated it was for the all the related or associated period
of time , not eternally.

Sorry, but you have already proven your failure at understanding.
