Eternal afterlife

[Godscreated]

 Not with the attitude you have in responding to my post, repentance is humbling yourself before God and admitting you are a sinner. many have committed murder and later with sincerity repented of what they have done, from the smallest thing to the largest thing. By the way there is no prize, we receive a gift from God and that is total forgiveness, it is unmerited and totally free. Unless you are willing to accept Jesus for who He is the answer to your question is no.

Aloha GC:

"Repentance" is a stupid ecclesiastical word! The biblical Greek word is metanoia and is first the prefixed preposition meta which means; with, as in loose association, plus noia which means: mind.

Jesus asked that we all become 'with-minded', 'fellowship-minded'. He did not say "repent" to people He did not know! Or, to anyone on-target!

"Sin" is a stupid Latin word! The biblical Greek word is hamartia and means: off-course, off-target, miss, errant, astray, wrong way, dead-end. It's about where your going, and not what you are doing. A "sinner" then is hamartia in it's adjective form used substantively for a wayward individual.

Biblical "forgiveness" means: to be released from the payment of a debt. All mankind was parabasis, paraptOma, hamartia. The price was paid nearly 2,000yrs ago. It is a done deal you cannot add to nor take away from. "It is finished!" Just say, Thank You! Your dept is paid! And you are free! 

"Humility" before God is to be humbled. Not arrogantly "humble".

"Salvation" is a stupid French word! The biblical Greek word is sOtEria and means: deliverance, preservation, made whole, kept safe and sound, recue from harm, right here, right now as we live TODAY and every moment of our breathing lives!

"Faith", from the Greek biblical word pistos means: To trust in your inventory of ideas that you have built from the study of God's Word and living life. Academic knowledge of God's Word is not experiential understanding of the zOE-life of His promise! "Faith" is not blind!

God's offer to you is zOE-life and He is the only source. Not and church's ecclesiastical "salvation"! But, life abundant here and now! Will you accept God's offer of life?! Or, the church's mess!  

I do not "believe" in Jesus! I trust Him is His way, truth and life! I have NEVER been disappointed!

  Are you disagreeing with me or agreeing. I understand what Jesus has taught through the inspired word we call the Bible. The  word definitions you give are Greek and they often have meanings that are many words where the English language generally uses one or two words. The meanings are generally the same or at least understood to be the same and those words are not stupid they are what we who speak English use.

  I believe what I described was pretty much the same as you were trying to say, I do not need the Greek to understand what the Bible says, I do use the Greek words to clarify some passages when needed. Please tell me the difference between belief and trust, I see them as one and the same?
