Sorry about the previous empty reply!   The King James bible translated certain words in the OT as hell that later scholars feel should be properly rendered as the grave or sheol. All the modern translations do not use the word 'hell' in the OT because the modern word no longer means what the OT writers were trying to convey. Jesus spoke a lot about hell but his listeners have a very different concept of what he was talking about. Most likely they were thinking about being cut off from God, life, joy etc when one is dead and in the grave.   The odd thing is that the NT authors don't speak a lot about hell. James spoke metaphorically about our tongues being fuelled by the fires of hell. Peter spoke of fallen angels being held in hell. Odd if the whole world is going to hell and our job is to save as many as possible.   Caroline ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Deegan To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2005 7:12 AM Subject: Re: Fw: [TruthTalk] Fw: Jasc Paint Shop Photo Album 5 images] I don't believe there are ever times when God doesn't love   Pr 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction PS 64:9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.
