Love and Fear

RE: Love and Fear
Misunderstanding due to misinterpretation.

The Greek word's wrongly translated in Mathew as "eternal punishment" are "kolasin aionion". Kolasin means corrective chastisement/cutting and it comes from a root meaning to prune a tree for better growth. Aionion means an "age" which is a very long time with a definite beginning and end.

Branches of the soul which produce bad fruit are cut off and burned if the soul has not cut them off and destroyed them while in body.


The alternative to having no corrective/reset process is infinite production of erroneousness growth until the tree/soul no longer produces anything consumable and choke itself out and dies. Or like an engine that never gets an oil change and seizes up.


The corrective action is so that the soul remains structurally consistent enough to not self destruct or become eternally lost in it's own mis-creations.

If there's anything to relativity and God is an all-consuming fire, then it's our orientation the determines if the experience is a quickening freedom or burning hell.
"Leave it to me to find a way to be,
Consider me a satellite forever orbiting,
I knew the rules but the rules did not know me, guaranteed." - Eddie Vedder
